Thank You
Just our way of saying, Thanks
The Spider is one of our cool, yet simple, inventions. In the Big Joe, the Spider drops deeper into the firebowl than the Divide & Conquer (D&C). Plus, the Spider's 14.25" ring is smaller than the D&C's lower ring, so you can:
We fabricate two different Deep Drop Spiders for the Big Joe.
Important: The Deep Drop Spiders are not interchangeable and do not work on the original one piece firebox/fire ring design.
--------------------------------------------------
Long Leg Spider Detail:
The Spider's ring sits just above the cast iron divider, approx. 1.75-inches below the D&C's lower ring. The Spider legs slip inside the D&C's ring and do not interfere with the D&C. Please note, basket dividers for the Kick Ash basket are to tall too work with the Spider.

The Long Leg Deep Drop Spider can hold round grids, grates and ceramic stones that are 14.5" to 18" in diameter. The Spider can hold one of the Big Joe Half Stones. Our 16" wok is recommended for wokking.
Pictured below is Joe's Classic CI Griddle with our 18" Half Stone, EGG's Large CI Grid, our 16" Wok and a very cool reverse sear set-up using our Big Joe Expander.

Hook Leg Spider Detail:
The Spider can hook to either the top ring on the Charcoal Basket or the lower ring on the Divide & Conquer. From the hook, the Spider drops approximately 3/4-inch closer to the fire. The basket divider can be used with the Spider.

The Hook Leg Deep Drop Spider can hold round grids, grates and ceramic stones that are 14.5" to 16" in diameter. The Spider can't hold one of the Big Joe Half Stones, as the D&C Basket interferes with the Stone. Our 16" Wok is recommended for wokking.
Pictured below is a pair of our 16" Half Stones, EGG's Medium CI Grid, our 16" Wok and again, the very cool reverse sear set-up using our Big Joe Expander.
