    Hit the search feature here and put in PS Woo.  You will get numerous threads that have comments regarding each of your options.  
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.
  • I have a woo and an adjustable rig. I recommend the woo as it gets more use, but the AR is great too if more options are needed.

    I have been using a P.S. Woo with an extender for years on my large BGE.  Perfect setup for me, and us it for almost every cook.

    I love my Adjustable Rig but I definitely use my Woo more often as it’s mostly raised direct cooking I like.

    Should have asked this earlier. Does your grandson already own a platesetter?
    Thank you,

  • I have the PS Woo and the extender, but decision was made more by the fact that I already had a platesetter rather than a preference over the adjustable rig. Definitely one of the best BGE related purchases I've made.

    I’ve got the plate setter and have been going 6+ years with the PSWOO2 and grate extender. Love it. It’s especially useful for wings and pork belly burnt ends.

    I just got my second Woo from Tom.   

    When I got my first one for the LG it was the PS Woo style, not long after I hated trying to put the Platesetter in it and just bought the oval stone instead.  So this set up was one half (90% of cooks) and when needed the oval or just raised grid.

    I just got an XL so I went to Tom and got a Woo and two half stones.  Platesetter in the garage to likely never be used again.

    Just Vote- What if you could choose "none of the above" on an election ballot? Millions of Americans do just that, in effect, by not voting.  The result in 2016: "Nobody" won more counties, more states, and more electoral votes than either candidate for president. 
  • I got the PS Woo for my Large BGE, it really works well, getting up to the felt line as well as an additional level.  Needed it this weekend for a mix of Baby Back and Spare Ribs
