Question from JOE1981: Asked on 08/07/2022 How do you set up the pizza stone as heat deflector? When using the layered grill the pizza stone will not fit on the bottom grill due to the legs of the top grill

Answer from SamCarter: Answered on 08/07/2022

Hi Joe,

Thanks for getting in touch

To use the pizza stone as a deflector you'll need to purchase a bracket, but we don't currently have these in stock.
