Deflector plate: For slow, low-temperature barbecue cooking!
The deflector stone plate and the pizza stone have nearly identical properties, so if you’ve already ordered a pizza stone from us (or are currently planning to put together a Kamado grill package), you don’t need this accessory. The deflector, acting as a heat barrier, prevents the direct heat of the glowing charcoal from quickly cooking or burning the food. With so-called indirect cooking, meats cook slowly at a low temperature until tender, and by using smoking wood chips, the food can also acquire a smoky flavor. An essential accessory for BBQ techniques!
