Kamado Joe -- Flexible Cooking Rack -- Big Joe

Last Saturday i came home to a very pleasant surprise:



My Classic came with the Flexible Cooking Rack, but i purchased by Big Joe a year before they came out. Upon opening the boxes, i was pleasantly surprised at how Robust and Heavy Duty the rack and grates are. They are heavy gauge stainless-steel and feel very well constructed.


So i fired up the coals and installed the frame and the X-Rack (accessory rack):



then put my heat deflectors onto the X-Rack. I've been a big fan of using the heat deflector on the X-rack after seeing John Setzler do this in one of his videos on the Kamado Joe Cooking channel (youtube). it allows the grill to heat up faster.



then added the new 1/2 moon cooking grates



and my new 20" Kamado Joe Big Joe Pizza Stone & a pie for the kids.



i love the flexibility of the Flexible Cooking Rack, can't wait to put it to more and more use on the Big Joe…….stay tuned for more cooks. thank you for looking.

Freddy, we need to get you to make your own dough there is so much more flavor you can add with the Magic of yeast.

Do you have an extender rack yet? Raise that up in the dome for extra browning.

Thanks Ben, not yet

thanks guys, the flex cooking rack is really helpful when grilling meat and veg, you can set up direct closer to the coals on one side and indirect higher up on the other with a 1/2 heat deflector in place. its awesome!
