How do I get melted plastic off a cast iron grate on my gas range. The grate is not covered with enamel, just cast iron.
 
Plastic

I feel sure the plastic has impregnated the cast iron. So any cleaning, scrubbing, chipping would be worthless.

I would probably try burning it off.

Hold the piece over a burner, if you have a gas stove. Otherwise a Butane torch may also work.

The logic here is that if it melted on the cast iron, it should melt off!!
 
Put the grate in the oven during the next cleaning cycle or in your gas/charcoal grill going full blast to burn off the chocolate.
