Second Selection - Recommended Accessories:
Adding the XL Adjustable Rig 2 Grid Combo is a fantastic way to do more with the ConvEGGtor or XL Woo.
If your XL Big Green EGG is new or only a couple years old, you can skip this part.
Important Older XL EGGs: If your Egg is 2012 or older, you need to verify that the XL Rig will work with the ConvEGGtor in your XL. See below to check!
From 2008 to 2012, the XL EGG went through several improvements. If your grill is older, we recommend you take the measurements outlined below to confirm the XL Adjustable Rig and XL Woo Ring will fit your older EGG.
XL Woo Ring: To make sure the XL Woo Ring fits, measure from the top of the fire ring to the felt line. The measurement needs to be at least 3". See picture below left.
XL Adjustable Rig: For the XL Adjustable Rig to work in tandem with the XL Woo or EGG ConvEGGtor, the measurement from grid to daisy wheel needs to be at least 16". Follow the three steps and see picture below right.
Working the low and high grilling positions.......
Pop the 20" Half Grid atop the Rig and you have a nice staging platform above the Woo, ConvEGGtor or XL grid. Slide the 18" Half Stone in and out for more capability. Watch the quick video.
Multi-Grid BBQ Cooks
The Combo works with Big Green Egg's ConvEGGtor® and CGS' XL Woo Ring for multi-grid, low & slow, BBQ cooks. Note, the XL Woo needs CGS' Pair 18" Half Ceramic Stones to create the indirect set-up. Typically, the XL Grid sits on the Woo or ConvEGGtor and is used as the lower grid. The upper grid(s) can be either the 16x20 Oval inside and/or 20 Round on top the Rig. Set the upper grid(s) to meet your cook requirements - skinny ribs to fat pork shoulders.
At 6" tall, the XL Rig provides plenty of headroom for big meat cooks. It's not a problem doing briskets, pork shoulders or brisket & pork shoulders.
Having the ability to use either the 20 on top or 16x20 Grid inside the Rig is a definite plus when it comes to varied BBQ cooks.
You can go 3 grids to smoke nine full racks of babyback or St. Louis style ribs flat. We've found keeping the ribs full and flat on a grid is key should you want to foil or sauce them.
We do not know of any other Kamado grill that can do 9 full racks, keep them flat on grids and provide straight access to all nine.
Grilling Raised Grid
Using the XL Rig and 20” Grid is one of our preferred set-ups for grilling high in the XL. At 6" tall, the Rig puts the 20" Grid up in the dome. Grilling higher, you will enjoy a wider (higher) range of temperatures with less chance of burning something. Great for chicken and sausages, cooks you want to grill direct but not worry so much on burning or busting a casing.
The Rig and 20" Grid set-up provides direct lump access to quickly add smoking wood or manage the fire - no grids to work around or move, a handy bonus.
Best Single Grid BBQ set-up Going....any kamado
If you have CGS' Pair 18" Half Stones and 18" Stainless Drip Pan, you can duplicate the brisket cook in the video. It will not take long for this set-up to be your favorite when BBQing on one grid. No grill matches it for convenience and performance - it's that good!.
The set-up yields better airflow, provides easy access to the lump and produces more consistent temperatures over the grid. What XL EGG owners love about this set-up is you don't have to touch anything to manage fire or smoke.
PIzza:
Atop the Rig is the best spot for pizza, Again, we push the pizza high in the dome. With thin crust pizza, we do not use a blocking stone. Instead we use the Rig height to better control temperatures in and around the pizza stone. With thick crust pizza, we use a blocking stone as this cook is more about baking dough than grilling toppings. With the Rig's multiple settings, you have plenty of options on how to space the blocking and pizza stones. Yes, you can go two pizzas, but we need to say, only recommended for the most experienced XL EGG users. If you have the XL Woo, use it with the Rig to push the pizza stone even higher, as pictured.

18" Drip Stainless Drip Pan matches nicely with our 18" Round Ceramic Stone. Foil the Pan for easy clean up. Use a pan to keep moisture out of the Stone. Pan keeps the grill clean for the next cook.
If you have young kids or tend to misplace things, get an extra set of Crossbars. We know this one from experience!
