If you’re running out of room during cooks or struggling to keep food warm without overcooking, your warming rack matters more than you think. The Napoleon Chrome Plated Warming Rack for 500 Series Grills (N520-0034) gives you back that critical upper-level cooking space so you can manage timing, temperature, and food flow more efficiently.
Designed as a direct-fit replacement, this rack drops into place on compatible Napoleon 500 Series grills and instantly adds a reliable zone for holding finished meats, toasting buns, or gently warming sides while your main grates stay focused on high-heat cooking.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
