Product Description
Indirect & Two-Zone Cooking for Primo Oval Grills
Ceramic heat deflector plates turn your Primo Oval into a versatile cooker by creating a barrier between the charcoal and your food. Use them for indirect barbeque, baking and two-zone grilling.
Most Common Setups
Use one or both plates depending on how you want to configure the grill:
- Two Plates: Creates a full indirect setup for ribs, brisket, pork shoulder, roasting and other long barbeque cooks.
- One Plate: Creates separate direct and indirect heat zones for flexible two-zone grilling.
Plate Design & Options
Choose between genuine Primo OEM plates or save with Ceramic Grill Store plates on select Oval models:
- D-Shaped Design: Primo OEM and CGS plates are shaped specifically for the oval cooking area.
- Matched Thickness: Primo and CGS plates are made to the same ceramic thickness.
- Expanded Coverage with CGS: CGS plates feature longer straight edges and sharper corners to provide slightly more indirect surface coverage.
- Sold as a Pair: Both Primo OEM and CGS deflector sets include two ceramic plates.

How Deflector Plates Work
The ceramic plates sit below the cooking grids on compatible deflector racks, creating a barrier over the charcoal. This blocks direct radiant heat from the fire and creates the indirect cooking environment used for low-and-slow barbeque, roasting and baking.
CGS Ceramic Deflector Plates & Stainless Racks
Important Requirement: Each ceramic plate requires a heat deflector rack to support it below the cooking grid. Deflector racks are sold separately.
How the Racks Work
- Racks hang below the cooking grids and support the ceramic plates directly over the charcoal.
- Install the racks, place the ceramic deflector plates on top, then add the cooking grids above.
- Use both racks and plates for full indirect coverage, or one rack and plate for a direct/indirect setup.
