Product Description

Upgrade Airflow & Simplify Ash Cleanup on Your MiniMax Big Green EGG

Add a Kick Ash Basket to your MiniMax Big Green EGG to better manage lump charcoal from start to finish. This heavy-duty stainless wire basket:

  • Securely holds your lump
  • Lets you quickly shake loose ash before every cook
  • Maintains clear, consistent airflow for faster startups
  • Provides easy access to the bottom of the firebox for ash cleaning

Pair the Basket with the optional Kick Ash Can for contained, mess-free ash removal from the MiniMax firebox.

For two-zone cooking on the MiniMax, we recommend using a half-moon deflector on a CGS expander setup rather than dividing the charcoal basket.

Free CGS Lump Rake Included

Every MiniMax Basket includes a FREE CGS Lump Rake ($18 value) — perfect for moving hot lump around the firebox and breaking up large charcoal chunks.


Confirm Compatibility Before Ordering (KAB-MM)

The Kick Ash Basket for the MiniMax is designed specifically for this model. Confirm the dimensions below before ordering:

  • 9" Bottom Diameter
  • 10" Top Diameter
  • 2.25" Basket Depth
  • 3.62" Overall Height (including handles)

MiniMax Kick Ash Basket Features

  • 3-year manufacturer’s warranty
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel wire construction
  • Electropolished stainless steel finish
  • Use with or without your lower charcoal grate
  • Includes FREE CGS Lump Rake

We reworked the MiniMax Woo so the Kick Ash Basket and Woo do not interfere with each other — allowing you to run CGS accessories without fitment issues.


Divider Availability

Due to the compact size of the MiniMax firebox, a charcoal divider is not recommended for this model. The limited cooking surface and lump capacity make traditional two-zone charcoal splits impractical in most cases.

For two-zone cooking on the MiniMax, we recommend using a half-moon deflector on a CGS expander setup rather than dividing the charcoal basket.


Optional: Kick Ash Can for MiniMax EGG (KAC-MM)

Our Preferred Setup

For best results on the MiniMax Big Green EGG:

  • High-Heat Grilling: Remove the factory lump grate to maximize airflow and reach higher temperatures faster.
  • Low & Slow BBQ: Leave the lump grate in place to mimic the grill’s natural slower airflow.

Tip: Shake the Basket before each cook to remove loose ash and maintain consistent airflow.
