Choosing the Right Rack System
Comparing XL Woo vs. Adjustable Rig vs. Flexible 2nd Grid
XL Woo (The Foundation)
- Best For: Your first essential upgrade. It works the critical zone from the fire ring to the top of base (felt line).
- The Advantage: It raises your main cooking grate and manages either your convEGGtor or our CGS 18" half-moon ceramic heat deflectors. Easy in & out using the handles. Better price point than the EGGspander.
XL Adjustable Rig - (The Most Versatile)
- Best For: Serious pitmasters running big or multi-tiered cooks.
- The Advantage: Adds true multi-level capabilities, running double indirect or the best single grid BBQ setup.
- The Ultimate Setup: Pair the Adjustable Rig with the XL Woo. Together, they create the most capable, flexible racking system available for any kamado grill on the market.
The XL Flexible 2nd Grid (Simple Addition)
- Best For: Quickly add another cooking level above the XL grid.
- The Advantage: Go half or full grid based on what's cooking. Like the Rig, add an 18" half-moon deflector for an elevated, secondary indirect setup. Only the Rig and Flexible 2nd Grid can do half, full, and indirect in the dome.
Handle Cooks Close to the Fire
CGS Spider for XL Big Green EGG
Take complete control of lower-level cooks inside the XL EGG. The CGS Spider drops your cooking grid or heat deflector right to the fire ring, giving you more multi-zone capability, high-heat searing power, and much easier handling of the heavy XL grid.
- Handle the XL grid at the fire ring – use the welded handles to move the grid in and out with ease
- Two-zone grilling – set a half-moon deflector under the XL grid for direct + indirect cooking
- Double-indirect or wok cooking – manage the lower deflector for double-indirect, drop in a wok, or sear closer to the fire
- Use solo or in tandem – pair with other rack systems for expanded capability
