Well I went to do the 4th of july grill.  I'm smoking a couple racks of ribs.   But my plate setter has a broken arm/leg whatever.  Where is the best place to buy a new one, ie cheapest?   Thanks in advance for your advice.

    File a claim with your dealer if it's less than 3 years old(warranty).

    Find someone close with an AR, they will probably give you their PS.  Better yet, just buy an AR.

    You don't have to have a platesetter to cook ribs.

    Just don't replace the plate setter
    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

    Just cut the other 2 legs off and use either 3 bricks or beer cans to elevate your cooking grid. This will work till you decide to buy a woo or an AR.

    I have the R&B combo and just use the ceramic stone with the foil ring.  Works great and I haven't used the PS since as I see no need for it.

    Go buy some JB Weld and fix it.
