I see people on this forum using a half grate for the Big Bad to setup two-zone cooking. This makes sense to me, but when I look at the standard equipment and the add-on accessories for the Big Bad, I don't see a half grate listed for sale. Standard equipment is 3x full grates, and I also see a smaller looking add-on accessory labelled "Warming Grate."
Anyone using the warming grate? And is there some practical cooking reason the half grate is not for sale anymore? Because it seems like a half split basket + a half grate above the shielded side would be the ideal two-zone setup. Or I could do indirect roasts like a chicken by using a half main grate only and no lower grate, that way I wouldn't even have to move the main grate to light the charcoal next time. Would also just love to hear what you veterans use as your usual grate setup. Just trying to get my configuration dialed in before pulling the trigger. I'm most likely going to order a Big Bad this month. I've been getting my feet wet with the tiny Kamado Joe Jr. and am about ready to go all in
