The Kamado Joe Half-Moon Soapstone Cooking Surface for the Classic Joe introduces a refined way to prepare tender meats, delicate fish, and fresh vegetables with exceptional control. Milled from thick Canadian soapstone, this cooking surface is naturally non-stick and delivers remarkably even heat distribution, helping ingredients cook uniformly without scorching or drying out. Its density allows it to absorb and retain heat efficiently, supporting steady temperatures that enhance searing performance and reduce the risk of flare-ups. This results in food that stays moist, flavorful, and beautifully caramelized.

Soapstone’s unique properties make it an ideal cooking surface for a wide variety of ingredients. Its non-porous structure resists stains and is naturally anti-bacterial, reducing concerns about cross-contamination when switching between proteins and produce. The surface helps contain savory juices close to the food, intensifying flavor development throughout the cooking process. Whether preparing steaks, delicate fillets, or an assortment of grilled vegetables, the soapstone supports consistent results and reliable handling.

Designed specifically for the Classic Joe, the half-moon shape integrates seamlessly with the Divide and Conquer system. This allows grillers to pair the soapstone with grates, griddles, or other inserts to create customized multi-zone cooking environments. The surface is easy to install and remove, adding convenience to its everyday utility. For cooks who value precision and versatility, the Half-Moon Soapstone Cooking Surface expands what’s possible on a ceramic grill, delivering performance that enhances both casual meals and more ambitious culinary creations.
