Some models of pellet grills like Pit Boss have a direct heat option. You simply open the flame broiler for direct heat from the firepot. If your grill does not have a direct heat option but you want to sear your pork chops at the end, we recommend a set of Grill Grates. We use these to get a good sear on hamburgers and steak. Make sure to measure your grill to order the correct size.
