Raise the cooking grid, easy in & out with handles, half-moon deflector option, CGS' Expander adds convenience and capability to the Joe Junior Kamado Joe grill.

The CGS Joe Junior Expander is all about simplicity. Everything mentioned so far plus:

  • deflector stone sits on bottom ring and can't fall out.

  • no interference with the Kick Ash Basket;

Important: Before ordering, confirm the following measurements to ensure the Expander fits your Junior's cooking grid and fire ring:

  • The outside diameter of the Junior's cooking grid needs to be approximately 13-3/8 inches for Expanders with handles.
  • The inside diameter of the fire ring needs to be at least 11.25 inches. The fire ring is the ceramic piece with three little notches that supports the grid and Expander. The Expander's lower ring drops approximately 1.375 inches into the fire ring.

Cast iron grids will not fit the Expander with handles. 

The Handles are not intrusive, just big and tall enough to grab and lift by inserting one finger through the loop.

The Joe Junior Woo Ring is fabricated using 1/4" Stainless Round Bar. The Welds are Tig welds.

Made in the USA by Ceramic Grill Store in our wire fabrication shop.

Note: Grill, fire ring, grid and stone shown are not included, you should already have them.

KJ Jr. Woo plate setter and grill grate support

Just got mine today, fits perfectly one the Joe Jr.

Two of three of the lower legs on my OEM unit fell off and it was not possible to hold the ceramic plate anymore. It was always kind of a junky, fiddly arrangement.

This is a much better design and excellently crafted with nice TIG welds. Perfect fit and plate positioning and now can remove and install the whole assembly intact with two fingers. Price was reasonable and fast, intact UPS delivery. KJ really could have done a much better job with the original. Great job on this badly needed accessory!

Highly recommend!

The handles are great.

Very nice accessory. The handles make it a lot easier to add/stir coals of smoking chunks without disrupting the cook.

The only negative I’d give it is that the Kamado Jr. Soapstone doesn’t fit without using the grill too. Not a huge deal, but I use the factory rack if I’m using the soapstone. But I sure miss the handles when I do!

Great Idea!

I just got into the whole Kamado Grilling with my Kamado Joe Jr which I really love. But one thing that bothered me on my first cook with using the deflector plate with the grill was the fact that I had to move the grill and deflector plate holder separately if I wanted to wood chips to the fire. And I thought that it would be great if you could them as one piece.

Then I saw a Youtuber talk about the Woo Ring in his review and immediately order it and does exactly what I need it to do. Also, I love the fact that you can easily remove the deflector plate in the middle of cooks without have to remove the deflector holder.

Big improvement

This is a step up from the ring that comes with the Kamado Joe Jr. Handles are a big help, and easier to slide the deflector plate on and off. It’s a must have.
