Anything I need to add to the shopping cart to save me shipping later? I'm talking must have items.

I like the extender with mine. I wish I had picked up a spider while I was at it.

extender, spider, small bge stone and small cast iron grid is the perfect catch-all setup. You can reverse sear on the grid right on the lump with the spider and small CI grid. You just leave it in while you roast then pull the AR and it's already hot. Ready to sear in minutes right at lump level. If you use the small bge stone on the spider as the indirect piece you can do 3 racks of spares or 6 st Louis at a time in a large. can do 2 briskets or 6 butts pretty easily too. I have that set up on both larges and it's perfect for me.

I am going to make the order sometime this weekend. Thanks for the suggestions.
BTW, after experimenting with different grills for the last 6 or 8 months I am back to BGE ownership. Super excited to rekindle my love affair with the grill.-Jody Newell (LBGE & a 36" Blackstone griddle).

also get some flat steel skewers for kebabs. The rig with only the crossbars in is is the perfect set up to cook kebabs and yakitori on the steel skewers. I got mine on amazon. do not get round- get flat or angled. they will stay where you turn them much easier if they are not round. The round ones just roll back to whatever side the meat is heaviest.

I went with the large adj combo to get spyder and stone that go below. Extras I ordered were extra set of the support bars, a round grid that fits down in the rig (factory grid sits on top), and I called and got them to substitute in the large drip pan--it gives you a largre heat shield for everything on the top racks so the edges don't burn--Tom will substitute this into the package for a small extra charge instead of the smaller one it comes with. Fantastic product--used for years..
-
I got the R&B but I don't remember what came with it and what I ordered extra. Maybe an extra D shelf? I probably should have gotten a drip pan, or at least that metal frame to make a foil drip pan.
I will say their corderite pizza stones are a good price, especially if shipped free with the combo. Wish I had bought one then.Aledo, Texas

I initially got the R&B combo and a foil ring but later ended up with another sliding grate, extra oval grid so I can rotate my ribs if needed, rig extender with the D grate that store is dangerous...very dangerous.

Ok, I have a bunch of his stuff, but what does R&B stand for?

I do switch the meat around half way through the cook in this setup. The stone gets pretty hot and it's pretty close to the bottom grid. It can make whatever is on the bottom rack pretty crusty if you leave it there the whole cook.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX
