@Madpap. Really nice shorty. I really like the spacers for the real dually look. Love it! Dang, now I gotta chop mine another 1/2" in hopes I can add the spacers. Hope ya don't mind me copin your idea. I grill Carne Asada as much as I do most other stuff. I'll Post some pics when I get my Tuck n Cary done. Buy the way, I have a Samuel Adams. They'd be a great pair. Beer n Burritos.

True dat, butt I'm a stander. And all my tables are stand height. Anywho, what you guys are doing is cool. No bashing, just curious. Just not my forte. Carry on...

This is what's happening on my red Krooked K midget today.  Lazy Sunday "Set it and forget it" type of cook.

I have the Slow n Sear w/ the Drip n Griddle in my 22.5 it's the bomb & well used. I'm thinkin on getin it & cutin down a 14" pizza pan for the drip pan as the drip pan directs the air right to the coals. Plus keeps the grease outa the kettle like the square pans don't.

@troy, I really like it.  I purchased the SS version and pair it with a drip pan from a BGE Elevated half-moon.  This combo fits perfectly on the 18's charcoal grate, but I also use it in my 22's.

I'll be honest, this 18" SnS basket was an entry level tester for me.  I have no hesitations now, and a SnS XL low profile is in my future, just have to find enough loose change in the couch.

Unfortunately no, but I like your style. 
Here's a pic of the extended rack, the drip pan is what I'm pairing with the SnS basket.

@Mr.CPHo The only thing I found was on Amazon it's Half Moon Cast Iron Reversible Griddle for Large Big Green Egg and 18in Kamado Grills $49.95. Amazon had the rack but no drip pan. Where did ya git it?

Sorry for the tangent - Troy asked about the SnS basket and here we are talking about BGE accessories.
