Primo Oval 400 Cast Iron Divider Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Primo Oval 400 Cast Iron Divider?
The Primo Oval 400 Cast Iron Divider is a heavy-duty cast iron accessory designed to fit inside the firebox of the Primo Oval XL 400 grill. It partitions the charcoal firebox to allow different cooking zones in the grill.
How does the cast iron divider work?
By placing the divider in the center of the firebox, you can separate the charcoal into two sides. This creates a direct heat zone on one side and an indirect heat zone on the other, letting you cook at different temperatures simultaneously.
What are the benefits of using this firebox divider?
It allows dual-zone cooking for techniques like searing on direct heat while slow cooking on indirect heat, and it also lets you use only half the firebox for smaller cooks to reduce charcoal use.
What material is the divider made of?
The divider is constructed from solid cast iron, offering durability, excellent heat retention, and long life even under high grilling temperatures.
Which grills is this cast iron divider compatible with?
This firebox divider is compatible specifically with the Primo Oval XL 400 grill. It fits securely and is intended to integrate seamlessly with that model.
Can this divider help with fuel efficiency?
Yes — by cooking on just half the firebox when appropriate, you can conserve charcoal and improve fuel efficiency for smaller cooking sessions.
