15-inch drip pan for large BGE?

Davekatz

I need a bigger drip pan/diffuser to give me a little more cooking room on the grate when I'm going indirect with the plate setter. I have a 14-inch pizza pan now that isn't deep enough to catch all the drippings and doesn't protect the food from the direct heat coming around the plate setter.

I know a 16-inch is too big to use with the plate setter. But has anybody tried a 15-inch pan?

Thanks,

Dave

I ordered one of these and I've been quite happy with it.

That is the same exact pan I spotted at Amazon as well. Very funny how great minds think alike .

For my XL, I went to a local restaurant supply store and got a similar pan for deep dish pizza.  I think it was 18", but they had several sizes and much less expensive.

The hard pans are great, but I end up lining them with foil to ease the clean-up. Our local restaurant store has 13" and 15" round foil pans for under $1 each if you buy 10 at a time. One or two uses and toss them. I use the 13" for my MBGE.

Thanks all - got the Fat Daddio one and it works great! Used it under a turkey over the weekend and it gave me plenty of grill space, held all the drippings, and cleaned up nicely:
