Pretty certain the Kamado Joe classic accessories will fit this. If anyone goes for it / is thinking of doing so and wants me to measure the accessories I have for the KJ, let me know.

That lid topper in stainless steel is going to get very very dirty....

The heat deflector stone & pizza stone are identical except for the writing / debossing on them - they measure 15 inches in diameter.

I'll measure the internal diameter of the firebox when I've stopped cooking on it (which will be this evening as I currently have a chicken being slow cooked on there). That will give you an idea as to whether or not the metal support for the stones will fit this model.

Cheers,

Simon

Excellent detective work. My Weber Kettle (recently returned from friends who borrowed it last year) is about to be relent to another friend. Despite this, I am still repeating to myself "you do not need another grill/smoker".

I'm about to go out for the evening. With any luck, by the time I look again tomorrow, they will have all sold.

The inside diameter of the KJ firebox which the heat deflector metal support sits on is circa 16 inches. It wouldn't sit on much smaller a diameter, but would cope with say a few Cms larger diameter.

No problem mate - the KJ grill is circa 18 inches in diameter, just for reference.
