Turn your Napoleon gas barbecue into an authentic charcoal grill with a smoky aroma, without sacrificing the convenience of gas. This cast iron tray sits directly on the burners instead of the flame guards and, thanks to its chip chamber, allows you to infuse smoke while working with real coals. It’s the cleanest and most direct way to add ‘charcoal flavour’ to your Napoleon gas grill (except TravelQ).�� Materials and constructionThe solid cast iron body provides thermal mass, high conductivity and resistance to charcoal heat spikes, creating a stable and long-lasting bed of embers. This material distributes heat evenly, promoting efficient ignition and consistent cooking.⚙️ Key featuresDesigned to be used in place of diffuser plates: it rests on the burners, is filled with a layer of charcoal and lit with the gas itself; when the charcoal is red-hot, the burners are snuffed and cooking over embers begins. The integrated chip chamber allows you to add mild smoke with wood chips or chunks, enhancing the flavour without additional accessories.�� Performance and efficiencyGas-assisted ignition reduces cooking times and eliminates the need for flammable liquids, while cast iron promotes lively and stable embers. You can alternate between direct heat for searing and indirect zones for longer roasts, maintaining control and repeatability in every session.�� Design and aestheticsIts sturdy construction conveys solidity and stability inside the grill. The tray format concentrates the fuel and smoke where it performs best, making it easier to manage the embers and clean up afterwards, with a sober presence that blends in with the interior of Napoleon grills.�� Compatibility and synergiesIt is suitable for all Napoleon gas grills, except for the TravelQ series. It fits into the space where the burner shields normally go, making installation quick and logical. If you want a precise fit, simply check the space available under the grates of your model.�� Benefits for different cooking stylesIt allows for intense searing with authentic caramelisation, gentle smoking with apple, oak or walnut wood, and long indirect roasting for ribs, shoulders or poultry. It also elevates simple preparations such as vegetables, grilled cheeses or burgers, adding that characteristic charcoal flavour.��️ Safety and ease of useIt is intuitive to use: remove the grates and plates, insert the tray, add charcoal, light with gas, and start cooking when the charcoal is completely white. By eliminating the need for lighter fluid and working with the lid closed during start-up, the process is more controlled. The use of gloves and long tools improves safety at every step.�� Applications outside the BBQ?This accessory is designed for the cooking chamber of Napoleon gas grills. That’s where its geometry, support and airflow work as designed, offering the best performance with safety and control.What would you like to cook with this tray?
