This is\n    normal and does not affect the trays' performance.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eCGS Take on Half-Moon Drip Pans\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We're not big fans of half-moon drip pans. It's not\n    that they don't work; it's simply that, in our\n    experience, very few half-grid cooks actually\n    require one.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Most half-grid setups are used for shorter,\n    higher-heat cooks at 325°F or above, such as\n    chicken, steaks, chops, and vegetables. These\n    foods generally don't release enough grease or\n    drippings to justify a dedicated drip pan.\n    For the small amount that does fall, a simple\n    sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil placed over\n    the ceramic heat deflector is all you need.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    For longer, low-and-slow barbeque cooks like\n    brisket, pork butts, and ribs that render\n    significant fat and drippings, we strongly prefer\n    a \u003cstrong\u003efull-round stainless steel drip pan\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    One consideration that's easy to overlook is that\n    \u003cstrong\u003edrippings don't fall evenly across the\n    cooking area.\u003c\/strong\u003e Consider a brisket: the\n    fatty point typically renders considerably more\n    fat than the leaner flat. With two half-moon pans,\n    one side may collect substantially more grease\n    than the other. A full-round pan provides one\n    continuous collection area beneath the entire\n    brisket, regardless of where the drippings fall.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    A full-round pan also eliminates the center seam\n    where drippings can slip through onto the hot\n    ceramics. It's easier to line with foil, and\n    there's only one pan to clean after the cook.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Because of their shape, half-moon drip pans can\n    be susceptible to twisting or warping when exposed\n    to uneven or high heat during a cook. CGS\n    recommends care when using.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003ePro Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    If you choose to use half-moon drip pans, line\n    them with heavy-duty aluminum foil before cooking.\n    Otherwise, you may spend a considerable amount of\n    time soaking and scraping burnt-on grease\n    and drippings.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2\u003eSpecifications \u0026amp; What's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Big Green Egg\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304 stainless steel\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two half-moon trays with\n      overlapping center edges\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eAvailable Sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium, Large, XL\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dishwasher safe\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two reusable stainless steel\n      half-moon drip trays per kit\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eFitment Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Select the kit that matches your Big Green EGG size.\n    Actual placement depends on your heat deflector\n    and racking configuration.
