14" CGS Ceramic Half-Moon Deflectors & Pizza Stones

Engineered for Medium Woo & Select Large Spider Setups

CGS 14" ceramic half-moon heat deflectors and full-round pizza stones are designed for the CGS Medium Woo and Large Spider setups in several popular kamado grills.

Use one half-moon to create direct and indirect heat zones, combine a pair for full indirect barbeque cooking, or choose the full-round stone for pizza and baking.

Before Ordering: Fitment and positioning depend on the specific grill and rack system being used. Always check the applicable CGS grill or rack-system product page for the recommended deflector size, support position and setup details.

Why Choose Half-Moon Heat Deflectors?

• Two-zone grilling: Use one half-moon to create direct and indirect cooking zones
• Full indirect barbeque: Combine two halves for complete indirect coverage
• Easier handling: Two smaller pieces are easier to place, remove and store
• Lower replacement cost: If one half breaks, you only need to replace that piece
• Direct fire access: Flexible positioning makes it easier to access the charcoal during a cook

Setting Up the Full-Round Pizza Stone

For pizza cooks, position the full-round pizza stone above a separate heat deflector with an air gap between the two ceramic surfaces. The lower deflector blocks direct heat from the charcoal, while the elevated stone provides the baking surface.

For more even heating, the pizza stone should generally be the same diameter as, or slightly smaller than, the heat deflector positioned below it. Avoid using a stone so large that it restricts airflow around the outer edge.

Use cornmeal or parchment paper between the dough and stone to help prevent sticking. Check the applicable CGS grill or rack-system page for the recommended placement, spacers and stone height.

Remember a Drip Pan

For barbeque cooks, we strongly recommend placing a stainless steel drip pan above the ceramic heat deflector. Ceramic is porous and can absorb grease and moisture over time. When trapped moisture is reheated, it can create steam within the ceramic and place additional stress on the stone.

Benefits of Ceramic Spacers

CGS Ceramic Spacers create an air gap above the heat deflector and can improve your setup in several ways:

• Under a drip pan: Helps reduce scorching and burnt drippings
• Under a pizza stone: Adds lift and creates thermal separation between the deflector and baking stone

Care & Maintenance

• Do not use soap, detergents or chemical cleaners on the porous ceramic.

• Avoid extreme high-heat cleaning burns.
• Expect the natural ceramic surface to darken with normal use.
