20 Best Under Grill Mats (2022 Updated)

This is not my first set of grilling mats. The first ones were black and worked great. They were hard to clean up. This is my second set of “copper” color mats. They clean up a lot better. After grilling I just scrape the remains off the edge of the mat while hot and it is clean.

About every 4th use, I take them inside and scrub them in the sink with soap and water to clean off all the gunk. After 18 months of weekly use, they wore out so I got new ones. I put the old ones under the grill on the grill collection plate to do a quick and easy clean up of spilled particles off the grill.

They dissipate the heat evenly, do leave grill marks on meat, and do not have any fire flare-ups due to grease or fat leaking onto the fire. I can do mushroom, veggies, or shrimp with no fear of anything falling through the grates.

The food can cook/grill in its own juices which adds to the flavor. Best thing since the grill.

My husband loves to grill but sometimes there are foods that like to fall through the grates or stick to them. We don’t like to spray anything on the grates as it seems to attract pests once the grill is closed up for next use.

We saw these advertised and since the price was affordable, decided to try them. Works great and I can toss in the dishwasher after use and the grates are good to go for the next grilling. Highly recommend for the busy griller.

Great mat!! Corners do not roll up. Lays in place even with a good stiff wind. Pleased with the quality of the material and very good logo om the mat..

Very durable and heavyweight and a great looking product. This was the only grill mat after searching on the internet that was sufficient for my grilling needs.

Ordered the grill mat and received it in a very timely manner. The grill mat is doing just what it is suppose to be doing. It protects drips from under our grill but is also protecting our new cement patio.

The mat is a perfect size under the grill. Seems like a very good product!.

This mat has a really good size to it – fits under my grill nicely with some real estate around it for errant splatters. It also is a good thickness – only knock was that it took some time for it to get used to being unrolled and go flat at the edges.

But that is to be expected. The material itself seems sturdy, and easy to mop up messes. Biggest bonus – no more accidental grease spills to stain the cement on my patio. I’d recommend! Disclaimer – I was provided a mat to use in exchange for my honest review of the product.

All opinions are my own.

This was basically a large rubberized floor/ground mat. Its useful in the sense that it catches anything that falls from the grill. I’m not sure what I was expecting but I was s little disappointed that it was just a mat.

But I guess it does what you need it to do. Please note that I’m a product reviewer, so I didn’t have to purchase this item. With that said, I don’t know if I personally would pay money for it. I’d just place a towel or something similar under the grill rather than buying a large mat, which is literally a bigger version of a car mat.

Learning to use my new grill, I wanted a bit of help keeping hamburgers from being able to break and fall to the underworld. These mats are great. Cut one down to fit the top rack of the grill. One fits almost perfectly on half of the grill.

Highly recommend. must for shrimp.

These grill mats arrived quickly. They’re large enough for multiple items to grill at once. They’re really easy to clean and dishwasher safe. You’ll still get grill marks on your food. As well.

I was skeptical when I purchased these. I figured, what the heck? Has to be better than cleaning the grill all the time. These work great! Appear to be quite durable. I’ve BBQ’d chicken breasts with just a little sticking, pork chops and fish with no sticking at all.

Clean up is easy. I just wait until the mat cools, rinse with water via the sink spray nozzle and wipe clean with a paper towel. Couldn’t be easier. I’ve recommended them to both my sons and co-workers who BBQ.

So far these non stick grill mats have exceeded my expectations. The Pro’s -Non stick surface is excellent. you can slide the meat around easily. Before the KONA grill mats my burgers, chicken, steak all use to to stick to the grill until after the first turn.

-Grilled vegetables have a more steamed appearance rather than crispy black burns. -The grill stays clean, only have to wash the mats which takes less 30 seconds. burned charred food and 20 minutes of soaking, the days of black soot are over.

-I have a convection grill and my biggest pet peeve was the fat and juices left behind filling the openings, plugging the grill from the flame. I had to soak and scrub the cooked on leftovers which was very messy.

The mats took care of that. -The taste is as good if not better. The meat is more moist/juicy never dry. -I use to always grill on the lowest heat setting, with the mats I needed to turn up the gas 1/2 for a similar cooking time frame.

-You still get grill marks if that’s your thing. I personally I like to cook the meat only the mats and at the end. Remove the mats and throw the juicy meat directly only the grill to seal the juice and flavor in and get the defined grill marks everyone wants.

A work buddy described cooking on his mat and I was skeptical. But, he actually undersold how good it really is. I had replaced my grates a few months ago and did not cook on them before using my new mat.

I’ve cooked probably 15 times since and my grates still look brand new by using the mat. Plus, the food gets cooked just as thoroughly and quickly as without a mat. and it does leave grill marks. Cleaning the mat after use involves normal washing in the kitchen sink with dish soap and a sponge and if you get a little splatter on the grates while cooking, a little spray of water/ammonia and a paper towel after the grill cools provides quick clean up.

I highly recommend.

I bought the Yoshi copper grill mat. I used it abot 3 times and this one, the KONA I used once. These yp eo mf mats are bestr used on a gas grill. I boght mine mailnly for fish. I have not tried veggies yeat, but I have seen them on video.

One of these days I will try it. I cooked fish on medium heat not the lowest. Also the thickness is not advertised and one makes a choice whether to keep it or not. I bought min eabout 8yrs ago and wreck it.

Love having more ‘Blackstone’ displayed out in my cooking area and enjoy cooking on this. I wish it was a little more durable though. The paint in the logo comes off easy and the rubber rips easily.

Great quality. Love the look of it and perfect for my griddle

Very Nice Quality Mat. (Use with my 36″ Blackstone with Lid/Cover) I wish Weber would copy this for their grills instead of what they use. This Mat helps keep the floor area clean and less drip mess on the deck or patio area while cooking.

Maybe it was my fault (though I read the directions completely) but after using two of these on my small grill to grill steaks, I found that they had become welded together. I had the heat set at medium (we like our steaks medium well) and at most the heat was on for maybe 20 minutes.

When I attempted to clean them after they had cooled down enough to handle, however, I found that they were literally sealed together where they had overlapped. I attempted to remove them but it just pulled the black silicone coating off.

I ended up throwing them out after one use. Since then I’m using $6 cheap silicone mats in the same way and haven’t had a single issue. I did like that these mats were more generously sized than most others.

First time using since bought product, very disappointing the black stuff comes off and sticks to the meat we had to scrape it off, the mat is not worth it at all. Hopefully the black stuff is not toxic it was hard to make sure it all came off food.

I did not purchase this item, yet. But I visited my son when he was camping and he had these. They are amazing! The grills at the campsites are filthy and have large gaps, so if not careful your food falls through into the fire.

With the mat, the steaks and hot dogs never touched the grill and the gaps was covered. Yahoo!.

I love them. Hardly ever grill without using the mats. They hold the flavor in instead of dripping onto the drip pan. I will be ordering the heavier ones next as the lighter ones have started to wrinkle.

Therefore the reason for just 4 stars.

Grillaholic Grill Mat-Set of 3-Nonstick is great to have on hand when grilling different kinds of meat so there won’t be any cross contamination. Each mat will hold its own kind of meat. They are easy to use on the grill and easy to clean up.

We have been using Grillaholics grill mats on our grill for the last six months and we would not go back to conventional method of grilling. The grill mats make cleaning our grill quick, easy and almost enjoyable compared to the usual brushing and scraping the racks on the grill.

I bought 2 of these and am very impressed with the quality. They are very heavy duty with a brilliant orange color. Get them while they last these have been out for the last 2 years. Another hi quality product from Traeger!.

It’s solid and strong enough to last for many years. Beautiful addition to be under this wonderful grill to protect the floor and surroundings.

Colorful and sturdy. The perfect size for in front of the Traeger. It arrived quickly and well-packaged.

GrillTex – Black Under-the-Grill Protective Deck and Patio Mat –this mat is designed to shield decks, patios, garage floors and other surfaces from damage caused by drips and spills around your outdoor grill.

According to GrillTex their mats are deeper than most competitive mats. My husband likes the fact that it has a unique front lip to provide extra protection against drips and spills in front of the main grilling surface (that feature is specifically for me) , the area most prone to drips and spills where food is loaded and removed from the grill.

My husband likes the fact that the mat is very durable and heavy duty, yet roll easily for handling and storage (it will last a long time). GrillTex Grill Mats have a 1-year limited warranty against failure due to manufacturing defects.

It’s very easy to clean (which is another point my husband likes) by rinsing off with a garden hose or soap and water, however he was extremely disappointed about the mat being so thin. Although it has the measurements on the package, he was disappointed that it was so small (I think they come larger sizes).

We would recommend this product only because the price is right, it does everything they say it would do and it is easy to store and clean but it’s much too thin.

I’m giving it two stars because at the very least it will protect from spatters and food dropping getting on your deck. However, that is about all it does. This mat is VERY thin and anything more than bits of food or the occasional grease/oil spattering will soak right through it.

For example, we had a small vial of olive oil tip over and land on it and it soaked right through and stained the deck. It is also difficult to properly position your grill on this mat because it likes to slide and wrinkle under the grill’s legs/wheels.

Save your money and get something made of a better material that is sturdier/thicker if you have anything other than a tiny outdoor grill.

Well constructed! Well it is a hunk of rubber that goes under a grill and catches spills. LOL. I needed one to fit under a double charcoal/gas grill. Fit perfectly.

I expected it to be thicker. Pictures do not match the product. Still it works fine for what I need and the price I paid. If it was more expensive I would have been more upset

Great quality item. It is thick and fits under my grill perfectly.

Bought this for my husband for father’s day and he absolutely loves it! He’s a very avid griller. He uses his grill every chance he gets and now uses his mat every time! Highly recommend!

The Miracle Grill Mat is a awesome product, meats, fish and vegetables cook evenly, with grille marks

Fish & veggies are great on this mat, I use it for steaks & chops also, saves you from cleaning the grill all the time.

I bought this as I often cook chicken wings on the BBQ & they are fiddly to manage and also fat/marinade falls onto the charcoal & flares up. Being aware that other people had complained that this & similar products looked burned & were difficult to clean after use, I was careful to avoid them being too close to the charcoal & when the BBQ was very hot.

Everything cooked really well. I had the same BBQ taste but it was much easier to manage. Once I had finished, a quick wash returned them to the condition that they were when I received them. I will be using them every time from now on.

If they do look scorched or otherwise affected after a few uses, they are cheap enough to buy replacements from time to time.

I didnt know what to expect with these and did expect them to end up as shrivelled up bits of plastic and in the bin after first use. Well I was wrong, they are absolutely great, you put them on your BBQ and place your food on top and it doesnt stick and cooks without that problem of leaving half of it stuck to the grills.

Your BBQ stays clean and you just lift off the sheets and wash them ready for next time. I have used these a lot now and have cooked many meals on them and although they are now a little discoloured as you would expect, they are still going strong and are still non stick.

This is one of those items you dont hear about very often, but it is one that I have found to be essential if you use a BBQ, even if it only lasts for one summer I would purchase them again and again.

A very highly recommended item.

Very very good, cooks food perfectly without sticking to grill or hot plate, if the food starts to disintegrate like tuna or salmon it keeps it all in one place, also veg like bean shoots can be cooked without using the wok.

Less splashing of oil and no flame ups as al the juices stay on the mat. Cleaning afterwards is really easy in warm soapy water and barbecue just needs a light wipe over, no scrubbing grills or hot plates or cleaning out the flame shield.

We now use the barbecue much more often than before because it only takes minutes to clean now. A very simple idea that works.

I was hoping this mat was something more than it is. This is a 3/16” or so hard mat. It gives little other than spill support. For the price is would rather go get a cushioned mat that would be the same size or larger.

This is not “Premium” it’s just ehh….

I’m glad I bought the grill pad. It seemed like a good idea since I just re-surfaced my deck with composite boards. It certainly helped when I accidentally forgot to put the bucket in place before my cook last weekend.

I figured it out before things got too gooey. The only complaint I have is that it smelled a lot like stale cigarette smoke. I opened the package in the garage & noticed the odor later. Not friendly to a non smoker.

This is a solid mat. It’s not as flimsy as the lower quality grill mats at the stores. My wife will also be happy that I won’t be staining the floor with meat juice anymore! Haha!

I purchased my Zgrill 7000E in February 2020. I use it 2-3 times a week. I was new to Smoking. It has exceeded all expectations. I have followed the manual instructions with not one issue. I have smoked pork butts, ribs, briskets, nachos, queso dip, hamburgers, reverse sear steaks, vegetables all were the best ever.

I wouldn’t trade my Zgrill. Since purchasing my Zgrill, I have purchased accessories including the complete cleaning package, grill mat, and cast iron griddle. All products are high quality and work as described.

I had a question on how to use the cast iron griddle. I emailed Zgrill around 1pm and by 5pm received a reply including a link to a video answering my question. Great customer service. I couldn’t be more please with the Zgrill and all of the accessories.

Happy Customer!.

Hey sorry to have to write a negative review, but the mat falls a little below my expectations. The problem is that the material is so thin and light weight, it simply blows up and wraps itself in all kinds of ways around the wheels and my grill.

Its just too light weight and is constantly buckling and tripping me. The last thing I need is a tripping hazard that close to where I am grilling. I love everything else about my z Grills experience and I will continue to buy accessories as the need presents.

Good quality. As described. I have 3, one for each grill. Gas charcoal and pellet. Just disappointing that zgrill account holders pay more vs Amazon. Sold by shrills in both places.

It takes less time to grill and are easily cleaned and most of all they are reusable. Absolutely love them.

With these mats I make frozen poppers or onion rings on the grill while Im cooking my burgers. No need to fire up that hot oven.

Great mats. They are much sturdier than others that I have bought in stores.

Fabulous Mat, Great for everything. Veggies don’t fall thru. Meat gets grill marks. I had man grates on my grill and nothing could be finer. BUT I was on my way down from Canada with a friend in her motorhome and this is what she had to grill on.

Since I did all the cooking I had a chance to see what this Eez Bbq Mat was all about. LOVE IT! is all I can say. Great for Meats,Fish, &Veggies.

We loved these so much, we bought more for everyone in our family. Now our entire family owns these and uses them on the grill. So simple but so wonderful. Wish I had found them sooner and our grill would look better.

Marshall loves these mats. He barbeques frequently. He grilled asparagus on the mat. He really enjoys the mats. They were easy to clean as well.

My bacon wrapped shrimp skewers with pineapple and cherry pieces are grilled to perfection and no more loosing a shrimp or fruit in between the spokes of the grill.
