Kamado Joe Deflector Plates

These ceramic plates are designed to block direct heat from the charcoal, allowing you to cook with indirect heat. By using them, you can bake, roast, or smoke foods that would otherwise burn over an open flame.

Yes, these plates are compatible with other 18-inch and 24-inch ceramic charcoal grills, including Big Green Egg models. Just ensure you are matching the plate size to your specific grill diameter.

The plates are designed to slide directly into the Divide & Conquer flexible cooking rack. Because they are half-moon shaped, you can place one on one side of the grill for indirect cooking while leaving the other side open for direct searing.

Like all ceramic grill accessories, they are durable but can crack if dropped or subjected to extreme thermal shock. To clean, simply let them cool completely and scrape off any food residue; avoid using soap or harsh detergents as the ceramic can absorb those chemicals.

Not necessarily. You can use one plate to create a specific indirect zone, or use both together to cover the entire grill surface for full indirect cooking, such as when smoking a large brisket or baking bread.
