Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned 8-Inch Cast-Iron Meat Rack/Trivet
Customer Review: Excellent Trivet!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using this as a trivet on my study table, on top of a cutting mat that doesn't do well with heat applied to it. This little rascal works great at protecting the mat and forms a very stable surface.
We also bought a 14" Lodge Logic cast iron pizza pan, which we love! We have decided it may be best not to set it on the electric stove when hot from the oven, so this seems an ideal time to order another of these trivets.
The trivet is plain, but attractive. Because the legs are short, it's quite steady. It's just dandy!
Customer Review: More trivet than rack
Summary: 4 Stars
As others have noted- it's really more of a trivet than a "rack", per se; it'd be better-suited to keeping roasts/birds out of the bottom juices if it were somewhat taller (another half-inch or so would be plenty).
Even with this limitation, it's still a useful addition to the collection.
Customer Review: Not a great deal
Summary: 1 Stars
To me, a trivet or rack indicates it would have little "legs" on this to raise it off the bottom of the pan. This is just a flat piece of iron with holes in it, so doesn't really allow any space to keep the meat or other food from sitting in its own grease. So I don't really see the point of it. If it wasn't so heavy to mail back, I would have returned it.Customer Review: Extra Grill Grate
Summary: 5 Stars
I own 3 of these trivets, and have as yet to use it for the intended purpose. My favorite application has been to use it as a warming tray attached to my Lodge Sportsman Grill. With $2.50 worth of parts from my local hardware store I was able to make an add on warming tray that I can adjust the distance to the grill surface and rotate it to any position over the cooking grate.
I also use one of these over a flowerpot with coals inside or a #10 tin can with coals inside when I need a quick temporary "throwaway" grill. That way I still have a good quality cast iron cooking surface.
Love the Lodge quality.
Customer Review: Great multi purpose kitchen helper
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this product everyday sometimes as a trivet and sometimes in the bottom of a pan to drain fat while baking meat.
