Ceramic Cookie Sheet as Heat Deflector

Dyal_SC · October 11

Will not use this for high heat cooks, but can’t imagine it won’t work for a low and low. My oval stone kicked the bucket and I needed another elongated stone for tonight’s brisket. It’s a pampered chef ceramic cookie stone and it’s pretty hefty. In the past 10 years of having it, I think we’ve used it once or twice. So I’ve decided to hijack it from SWMBO!

It fits like a dang glove on the bottom AR rails.

I foiled it top and bottom, but if you look at the bottom left, you’ll see part of the ceramic peeking out. Excited it fit so well. Hoping the temp control won’t be an issue with airflow.

Anyways, I’ll letcha know how it “pans” out!

I don't see why not.

Not too long ago I got carried away with decluttering and gave away a set of pampered chef stonewares, including a tray just like yours, that was stupid to say the least! The tray would be perfect for Stecca bread (nod @GrateEggspectations).

@Canugghead , I think this is the one… looks like a 16 inch outside diameter, which actually fits just right inside the 18 inch large egg — considering the spacial displacement of the width of the pan not being in the dead center of the egg. If that makes sense (not smart enough to explain what I’m trying to say better).

That's it.

Going to be perfect for the brisket as long as it doesn’t break. I don’t foresee it breaking. It’s doing great on air flow. About to throw the brisket on in about an hour from now.

Great recovery especially with a brisket in the queue. No worries regarding the potential breakage. Ceramics can handle the heat. Great cook and adventure on the horizon.
About the most audibles during a cook you can get. Enjoy. Great eats await.

Been there @lousubcap with the audible crack. Haven’t checked it yet, but the brisket has been on for about 2 hours. I suppose I need to go check on it at some point before I go to sleep.

Because I know not many of you on this forum have seen a brisket cooking, here’s an elusive photo of one. Just wrapped it in butcher paper.

Yessir. Target temp was reached around 30 minutes ago. Making brisket and egg bowls over stone ground grits tonight. Might make some pickled red onions to finish. Resting for a few hours.

Thx man. Can’t say it was the juiciest brisket ever, but it’ll eat and not the worst brisket I’ve had.

The ceramic sheet pan did perfectly by the way. Will be my new rib and brisket method to deflect heat.

Amazing recovery and cook. I do hope it gives you many low and slows in the future.
