Masters of meat,
Newbie here. Just getting into using this BBQGuys 21-Inch Kamado Grill & Smoker - BBQ-K-24B, Item #: 3062551, Model #: BBQ-K-24B. It's sold out now so I apolologize can't link to specs.
PROBLEM: while I fell for the stainless hardware and price point (as a trial to the kamado world) I am now suffering from the inability to purchase accessories that I woudl/ could buy with BGE of KJ of like size.
I've made a few things that surprisingly turned out great withOUT the deflector plate by shoving the coals to one side, but it's not ideal and pizza is almost impossible without the a deflector.
They don't offer one and never will so time to find my own solution. I just ordered this Onlyfire Pizza Stone Heat Deflector for Large Big Green Egg and Char-Griller AKORN Kamado, 17 1/2-inch, which by my measurements below SHOULD come close to fitting.
I am prepared with diamond grinder to grind this deflector to fit.
My Q's
1. (in theory) can that be done without shattering or destroying the amazon special deflector????
2. any tips?
3. any of you using this Kamado and if so what did you find (if any) to fit as a deflector?
4. any other ideas?
Thanks and looking forward to being a member here!
