DOLAMOTY Stainless Steel Ash Basket for Large Big Green Egg & Kamado Joe Classic — Divider, Improved Airflow

DOLAMOTY's stainless steel ash basket for Large Big Green Egg and Kamado the Joe Classic organizes charcoal, boosts airflow, and makes ash removal fast and tidy.

Upgrade your kamado setup with a purpose-built ash basket that replaces the stock grate. Designed for Large (L) Big Green Egg and compatible with Kamado the Joe Classic, this heavy-duty stainless steel insert helps you manage fuel, reach grilling temperatures faster, and clean up in minutes. The included divider lets you use half the charcoal for small cooks, and the wire construction improves air circulation for more consistent burning.

How does this basket improve temperature control and airflow?

The open wire design allows air to move freely beneath and around the charcoal, so vents respond faster and the fire reaches higher temperatures with less delay. Better circulation reduces cold spots and helps coals burn more evenly across the bed.

• Wire-grid construction increases oxygen flow to the charcoal.
• Elevated bowl shape prevents fuel from shifting toward the vents.
• Faster vent response shortens time to target temperatures.

Will it make cleanup easier after a cook?

Yes — instead of scooping loose ash, you lift the cooled basket to carry ash and unburned lumps away in one motion. The ash simply falls into the egg’s cleanout area when you shake or tap the basket while cool, lowering mess and saving time.

• Lifts out whole charcoal batch for quick transfer.
• Reduces fine ash left on the grill floor and vents.
• Simplifies preparing for a fresh cook: add a few new pieces without rebuilding the whole bed.

What does the divider do and when should I use it?

The removable divider allows you to section the basket so you can run a partial charcoal load for low-and-slow or short cooks. Use the divider to concentrate heat on one side for searing while keeping the other side cooler for indirect cooking or fuel savings.

• Runs smaller fires using less charcoal for quick meals.
• Creates two-behavior zones: direct high heat and a cooler reserve.
• Easy to insert or remove depending on cooking needs.

How durable is the basket and what materials are used?

The product is fabricated from heavy-duty stainless steel designed to withstand repeated high-temperature use and resist corrosion. The robust wire build preserves form under weight and frequent handling, offering long-term reliability as a repeat accessory.

• Stainless steel wire resists rust and deformation.
• Welded construction for secure long-term use.
• Made to fit Large Big Green Egg and Kamado the Joe Classic size specifications.

Who is this for? Grillers who own a Large (L) Big Green Egg or Kamado the Joe Classic and want faster starts, cleaner ash removal, and fuel flexibility will benefit most. It’s ideal for weekend sear sessions, frequent backyard cooks who dislike post-grill cleanup, and anyone who wants more precise airflow control without replacing their kamado. Confirm your oven size before purchase to ensure a correct fit.
