A single pan provides continuous coverage beneath the food with no center gap for drippings to slide by. It is also easier to foil, remove, and clean than two separate pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe rarely see a need for single half-moon drip pans. Fast grilling cooks with lean meats generate minimal drippings. A folded sheet of aluminum foil draped over the deflector provides sufficient protection. However, for briskets, pork butts, ribs, and other low-and-slow cooks, a full-round stainless drip pan is our preferred setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTapered Sidewall Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tapered sidewall provides a wider upper opening for catching drippings while keeping the base smaller near the ceramic deflector.

Overlap two sheets in a + pattern, pressing the foil into the pan and slightly over the rim for additional drip coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter cooking, simply remove and discard the foil. The pan can be hand washed or placed in the dishwasher, although baked-on grease may require additional cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel naturally darkens and discolors from heat, smoke, and grease.

More separation is generally beneficial when vertical clearance allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike drip pans with built-in feet that provide only a small air gap, separate ceramic spacers let you increase the distance between the hot deflector and drip pan when clearance allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the Medium BGE Woo setup, 5\/8-inch ceramic spacers can be used above the 14-inch half-moon deflectors.
