tekobo Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Hi @ChristopherHauser, can you take the piece out and photograph it? It is over the fire box and can't stay there I don't think. It might be an upside down double bottom pan but easiest to tell if you get it out and take a photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristopherHauser Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Yes I can. It’s on the bottom below the charcoal basket. I wrote with Dennis, it’s normal for “built in” versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Dennis says it actually does and stops the grill froM potentially wobbling. it was news to me, as all images I have seen before don’t show this part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C6Bill Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Weird, I've never seen one like that. What size is it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherHauser Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) It’s a 22 Beast. @C6Bill that’s why I was asking as I have never seen it before on any photos.

David Chang Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 if this is a new part, is the placement correct? because the L bend is obstructing the lower vent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherHauser Posted November 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 I think so yes. Perhaps @DennisLinkletter can say a few more words about it for the rest of us. I don’t want to copy our private conversation into here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 I am curious to see how the whole set up works. Does your fire basket sit underneath this piece of stainless steel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherHauser Posted November 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I can post some more images ones it finally stops raining cats and dogs here… The metal part sits at the bottom of the grill under the fire box and basket.

DennisLinkletter Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 This is a heat shield for the 22" Beast.. It prevents the material dead center of the floor directly under the firebox from heating up and expanding (at high temps) which can actually make it rock a bit.. The center expands but the outside of the grill floor does not creating a high spot dead center. This plate prevents this from happening. As I always say, physics sets the rules! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtieBill Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 I have been searching this forum looking for this answer. I was getting ready to post a picture of this part myself. I assumed this is how it installed, but could not find any other mention of it. Thanks for clarifying. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
