I am wondering what some of you use in your small egg for indirect ceramic mass. I have the grate mates and have used and destroyed several things including a pampered chef round pan. Is there an BGE baking stone that fits in the small? I only see a large and medium on the websites.[p]

    What you are looking for is the ceramic baking dish.[p]Toy Man
  • JNK,
    Like Toy Man said you need the [p]Ceramic Baking Dish -- 8" Diameter
    For superb breads, deep dish pizzas, pies, etc. in your Egg. Better results than in your home oven.[p]It can be found on the eggcessories page. It works great with Chubby's GrateMates seeing how Chubby is the one who told me about it. Way to go Chubby!!

  • JNK, I ordered the 8" ceramic baking dish from the products section of this site and built a small rack similar to a grate mate for it to sit on and it works great for indirect cooking in a small. Peace...[p]

    <p />JNK,[p]I would have to absolutely agree with all the astute [p]commentators below Julian!![p](With my tongue planted firmly in cheek!!)[p]Evans[p]Seroiusly...the BGE dish works great..... [p]Call Bobby @ BGE and order one!
    I spent most of my money on good bourbon, and bad women...the rest, I just wasted!!

    Thanks for the picture. I will call my local dealer and if they don't have it I will call Atlanta. I knew there was a BGE product for this purpose but could not seem to find it. Loving my great mates! My sister got them for me for Christmas. I made myself a cast iron grid and had enough srap left to make another "half grid" I freguently use both levels while using my small. Have a great weekend. I intend to make my first stab at making pizza this weekend.

  • JNK,
    Are you able to get the main grid out (after removing the half grid) with the GrateMates left in place????[p]Thanks,
    Bordello

  • JNK,
    When I called BGE they informed me that the 8"Baking Dish was discontinued. I contacted John at BGE headquarters and he informed me that it was discontinued and they no longer sell it. Anybody able to purchase the Baking Dish I would appreciate info on how they did it. Thanks

    <p />JNK,[p]I use my own setup with a 10 inch in diameter hearth for my baking in the small Egg. Shown in the picture is a large loaf of sourdough bread about done.[p]Dave

    Bordello,[p]Yes I can take it out just fine. In fact I can take the gottom grid out without removing the top grid[p]JNK
  • I just bought one from the BGE store in Atlanta. It's a ceramic baking dish with green paint on the sidewalls on the outside.
