Grill expansion options

[JeffreyB]

I have an XL BGE and though the XL has a lot of space on the grill, turns out my family is larger than XL. I've been looking around at second level grill grates for my egg. Turns out the number of turkeys, burgers, chickens, water buffalo etc that you can cook comfortably (as listed on the BGE advertising literature) is slightly exaggerated.
the BGE 2 tier grill looks nice and wide but doesn't seem high enough to give you space to work on the bottom grate
the BGE 3 tier has a pole down the middle precluding a second pizza stone
the grill dome IC 1000 looks decent and pretty economical but again, only 4.5 inches of headroom underneath. (is that enough?)
ceramicgrillworks makes a "swing rack). looks pretty cool
ceramicgrillstore makes the adjustable rig/woo that looks like the mac daddy of grill expansion but it's pretty pricey

Anybody (who owns one) have any strong feelings about any of them?

@JefferyB I have a large BGE with Cermaic Grill works add ones. I like their woo for raising the the grate to the felt Line and removing the plate setter for a reverse sear. I also have the rig and grill extender which works for multi-level low and slow cooking. I don' know if they are available for the XL.

Thanks, LAPB. Yes they do make it for the XL. Interestingly, there is no "package price". Same price if you buy everything as one of their different combo packages or one piece at at time.

@JefferyB ...

You might want to look at the next size up Grill Dome. It's 22" across and it has 5.5" of headroom.

Thanks, I had not seen that one. Definitely better than the one I was looking at.

JeffreyB ... I have a large BGE and I consider the Grill Dome direct/indirect grate to be my 2nd most important accessory I've ever bought. 2nd behind the DigiQ Dx2. I use it in the legs up position for some things and the legs down position for other things.
