This cordierite heat diffuser sits between the grate and food, directing heat into a gentler, more even flow. By turning direct heat into indirect cooking, you can minimize scorching, promote even browning, and help maintain moisture for a range of dishes. The stone’s strength and thermal resilience come from cordierite, a material trusted for heat retention and stability when temperatures shift. While designed for Akorn Kamado models, it also complements larger grills that benefit from a stable, radiant cooking surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17” diameter and 0.8” (20 mm) thickness for a robust cooking surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCordierite heat diffuser delivers indirect heat and protects food from direct flame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Char-Griller Akorn grill models: 16620, 26720, 06620, 6520, 6020, and large Big Green Egg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVersatile for low and slow smoking, plus baking pizzas, bread, and cookies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat tolerance up to 1,450°F (787°C) with strong heat retention and thermal shock resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCare notes: avoid soap or detergent; do not season the stone; contact support if damaged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReal-world cooking ideas\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImagine weekend pizza nights with a crisp, evenly browned crust and perfectly melted toppings.
