Would you like to use indirect methods of cooking, such as smoking a whole chicken or salmon, slow-cooking large pieces of meat or roasting spare ribs and pulled pork? Then you need the plate setter (heat deflector). This ceramic heat plate allows the Grill Guru to function like an oven. Your meat, vegetables or fish will no longer burn and will cook through evenly. A plate setter is also indispensable for making the most delectable pizzas. In combination with a pizza stone, of course. The ceramic plate setter is made up of two parts: the stainless steel holder and a separate round stone made of cordierite ceramic.
