Fatboy basting deflector

cpw · Feb 7, 2013

So I was the lucky recipient of one of Smokinit's backwoods basting deflectors. I got the deflector last week, but didn't get a chance to do anything with it until recently.

First thing I had to do was put a notch in the plate to accommodate the 180 door. Smokinit has since modified the design for this. Other than that, it fits great, the door closes no problem, and I can't wait to test it out this weekend. No more gooey fire door for me!

Thanks man a little R&D on the fly. Looks like we may just go with a version that will just cover the fire door and not go out to the cooker edges so we don't have to try to fit to many different door versions. You have a one off:mrgreen: Thanks for your help and feedback!!

...so is there room to put a sheet pan on the basting deflector and open and close the door?

I would say no not enough clearence between the door and it to open the door with it on it.Also it is only 9" wide.

Those who would like a deeper basting tray should let us know. We'd be happy to make them to any dimension. We have also fit these to Spicewine cookers.

Probably not. I don't think there's enough room between the two doors to do that.

I got a chance to do some smoking this weekend, and use the basting deflector for real. As you can see from the pic, it works exactly like it's supposed to. All I had to do to clean it when I was done was hose it off with a sprayer.
