Two tier rack

Options
Can someone recommend where I can buy a robust two tier rack?  I need to increase my surface area on my large bge.  I really can't justify purchasing another grill.  Please don't refer me to ceramic grill works.  I ordered one of their racks on March 12th and just requested a refund today as it was never delivered. Their product is what I am looking for but their fullfilment is awful despite the fact they are advertising it is in stock.  The owner seems like a nice guy...just a bad businessman.

    You could look at some options from Ceramic Grill Store.  Note this is in no way affiliated with ceramic grill works. 

    https://ceramicgrillstore.com/

    If you are looking for something a bit cheaper I have seen a few people using the grill dome extender shown here

    I also just noticed this one on Amazon.  It looks like this is the Kamado Joe extender.  I haven't used it but I have seen it at Ace and it seems well made. 

    One more option is to just get an 18 inch weber kettle grid and use some nuts, bolts, washers to make your own.  




    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    I thought they went out of business. Thought I read a letter here saying so here.

    Just wanted to reinforce, Ceramic Grill Store.  I visited once, was given a tour of the back where production occurs.  First rate customer service and the products are well thought out and designed.  I have the PSWOO2-CI Combo, spider, drip pan for the large and the Woo Ring and drip pan for the small.  Use all of them regularly.

    I placed my first CGS order in March. I believe it was on a Thursday (but it might have been a Wednesday). I had my order on Saturday. I just ordered an AR today. It's already been picked up by FedEx. That is to say they don't just have a shipping label made. It's actually in the possession of FedEx on its way to me.

    I greatly appreciate all the suggestions.  I just placed an order with the ceramic grill store today. I ordered one large rig combo, drip pan, adjustable rig extender, sliding D grid, and extra crossbars.  I called and spoke to a gentleman at the store.  Awesome experience and I just received my tracking number.  Can't wait to get it going.

    Thanks for this post.  Been wondering and wanting too.  Just duplicated your order for myself from the CGS.

    Sorry to OT piggyback, but I have to rant and I don't want to start a new thread...

    Freakin' FedEx!!!

    CGS did a superb job of getting my R&B AR Combo, spider, and wok in FedEx's hands on Wednesday when I ordered it. Since then the delivery date has been today. This morning it was today. I get to work and refresh my tracking screen and now it's tomorrow. Grrrrrr. FedEx does this to me all the time. I wish they'd stop overpromising and underdelivering. I had plans to use the 13x17 stone for baking bagels tomorrow morning and then start a spare rib L&S right after.

    CGS did their job. FedEx could learn a lot from them.

    Rant off.

    @malligator- -  maybe your rant will inspire CGS to see if they can get a better deal with UPS.  No delivery date issues with UPS but have had some wayward arrivals when in the hands of FedEx (and not around holidays).  FWIW-

    Yeah, I've never had this problem with UPS. And, if this was the first time with FedEx I wouldn't have said anything, but it's not. It happens quite often. Apparently all my stuff made it to my local hub this morning, but must have missed the delivery truck by a matter of minutes.

    Of course, if it was UPS I wouldn't get getting my stuff until Monday.

    Oh well. What are ya gonna do?
