Drip pan for XL

fruitguy · June 2013

What do you guys use for a drip pan, on top of your placesetter in an XL. Been cobbing one and this weekend hand a epic fail cooking butts. Huge grease fire and ruined the meat I was cooking for nephews graduation.

Please let me know what size or brand you use.

Thanks,
James

I have a large, and used to use a cake pan. After the second cake pan failed, i started just placing a piece of thin aluminum foil across the egg, and slightly turning the edge up. The drippings hit the foil and evaporate -- yes, this causes smoke, but i think it adds to the flavor. At the end of the cook, i remove the grid, and with tongs wad up the foil, let it cool and dispose of it. Been using this method for a couple of years - works for me. Platesetters stays clean, and i have no grease dripping into the fire.

I have a 13.5" drip pan that I got from the ceramic Grill Store (http://shop.ceramicgrillstore.com/categories/Drip-Pans-%26-Ceramic-Stones/). You could probably use the 16".

I found a stainless 18" pan with very little edge on it @ Restaurant Depot for about 5 or 6 dollars.
Put foil under it and build up an edge.

Or you can buy the 18" from Ceramic Grill store as mentioned above. I have the 16" and did not see the 18" or I would've gone with that. 18 covers the place setter perfectly.
