Fire brick and plate setter

Shizam · December 2014

I am about to grill my first pizza tonight, so I have been doing some online research. I have noticed a lot of talk about using firebricks for indirect heating. Aside from those who have used them simply to raise the grill; is this in addition to the conveggerator (place setter) or a cheap substitute?

Welcome aboard. The only reason they are using fire bricks is to raise the grate. Use the plate setter and then put your pizza on a pizza stone on the grate.

No need for bricks if you have the PS.

Just make sure you have an air gap in between the platesetter and pizza stone unless you like burned crust.

Can use the grill grate, green egg feet, tin foil balls, machine bolts, or a partridge in a pear tree.

Get the pizza above the feltline but, more importantly have an air gap between the PS and stone. Like this (I use 7/8"-1 1/8" refrigeration copper fittings---90°s or Ts).

I've used firebricks for both raising my grid and as a replacement platesetter. I didn't have a PS for a while (gravity sucks) so I placed several on s cheapo 18in grid and put my regular grid on that. Worked like a charm.

$20 bucks for 6 firebricks was a steal in my opinion!!
