Traeger BAC772 ModiFIRE Sear Grate | Reversible Sear Accessory for ModiFIRE Grills

Elevate your ModiFIRE grilling with the BAC772 Sear Grate

Upgrade your backyard sessions with the Traeger BAC772 ModiFIRE Sear Grate. This angle-ready accessory is designed to work with ModiFIRE grills (including Ironwood, Ironwood XL, Timberline, and Timberline XL) and is compatible with many Traeger platforms that match its mounting. Built with an anodized aluminum finish, it stands up to high heat and weather while maintaining a clean, polished look that’s easy to wipe down after a long cook.

The grate features two distinct searing surfaces in one utility piece. The ridged side delivers bold grill marks and a crusty exterior, while the reversible flat side broadens contact for even browning. The ridges and valleys are not just for show: they help guide heat and encourage moisture management, giving you a crusty exterior and juicy interior—without relying on guesswork.

Key benefits at a glance

• Competition-level sear marks on steaks, chops, and seafood.
• Reversible surface for flat searing when you want broad contact and even heat distribution.
• Ridges and valleys that help manage moisture for a crusty exterior.
• Engineered to fit ModiFIRE grills, with compatibility extended to Ironwood and Timberline lines.
• Durable anodized aluminum construction for heat resistance and easy cleanup.
• Precise footprint of 18.25" x 11.5" x 0.75" designed to sit securely on your grill.

Design, usage, and real-life scenarios

The BAC772 Sear Grate is more than a replacement piece—it’s a versatile surface that adapts to your cooking style. Use the ridged face when you want pronounced sear lines and a crust on thicker cuts. Switch to the flat side for a wider contact area when you’re browning burgers, peppers, or shellfish, or when you’re aiming for a uniform crust across a larger filet. The combination enables quick heat transfer at high temperatures, while the grooves help channel fat and moisture toward the edges for balanced results.

Typical use cases include backyard steak nights, quick seared burgers with melt-in crust, and seafood bites that benefit from rapid browning without overcooking the inside. While performance can vary with grill conditions and technique, many cooks find the dual-surface design offers flexible options for high-heat grilling sessions.
