YAKINIKU Half moon heat deflector (2 pieces) | LARGE
Positioning the Heat Deflector
The XLarge Heat Deflector is used in combination with the Multilevel Lift large or Pro Set . Thanks to the lift, the deflector sits firmly in the correct position inside the XL kamado, ensuring an even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface. Essential for long, indirect cooking sessions on the largest kamados in the range.
Use a Grid Lifter to place and remove the heat deflector and grate easily and safely. Thanks to the grid lifter, you don't need to let the kamado cool down to reposition the deflector, which comes in handy when you want to switch between direct and indirect cooking during a grilling session.
Professional indirect grilling on the kamado
The XL kamado is built for those who think big — and the XLarge Heat Deflector unlocks its full potential. The oversized ceramic plate creates a complete barrier between the burning charcoal and the cooking grate, redirecting heat evenly across the entire surface. Even at the highest cooking temperatures, heat distribution remains stable and controlled.
This cooking surface makes preparations possible that simply wouldn't fit on smaller kamados. Multiple racks of spare ribs side by side, a fully loaded smoker setup, or a showstopping piece of dry-aged beef slowly cooking for hours at low temperature. The XL kamado with heat deflector handles it all with ease. The ceramic walls trap heat and smoke, creating an intensity of flavour that is hard to match with any other cooking method
An XLarge Heat Deflector that darkens after use is doing exactly what it should. Keep cleaning products away from it, simply burn the deflector clean after every session. This keeps the ceramic in excellent condition and ensures that maintenance never affects the flavour of your next cook.
