Recteq Backyard Beast 1200 | Pimp My Grill® Gen2 Slide-Out Rack System - 1 Rack

The Pimp My Grill® Gen2 Slide-Out Rack System adds 495 square inches of reliable cooking space to your RecTeq Backyard Beast 1200. This top tray sits high above the firebox, putting slower-cooking proteins into steady convection heat. A sliding front panel lets you pull racks outward before reaching inside any long session.

It mounts using patent-pending pressure bolt brackets. You never need to drill holes or cut welding seams. Remove the entire tray in seconds when you need vertical clearance for towering pork shoulders or large turkey racks.

• Expanded grate real estate: Gain exactly 495 square inches of flat cooking surface for batch meals.
• Slide-out access: Glide racks toward the door before handling hot pans, which protects your hands from steam and splatter.
• Carbon steel build: Thick grates welded in a diamond pattern trap radiant heat and improve crust formation.
• Tool-free mount: Pressure brackets clamp onto existing frame rails without permanent modifications or warranty risk.
• Quick removal: Lift the complete assembly off its hinges whenever you need taller interior clearance.
• Grows with your grill: Drop in a matching middle and bottom unit later for a full three-tier layout.

• Building distinct heat zones across two or three levels
• Fitness meal prepping with higher protein volumes
• Cold smoking cheese, butter blocks, or nuts overhead
• Pitmasters who rotate foods frequently during multi-hour holds

• Balanced fuel placement: Keep lumps or pellets toward the rear edges. This directs heat evenly across the top grate instead of creating hot spots near the center.
• Season before first use: Rub a thin layer of cooking oil on the bare carbon steel, then run the smoker at four hundred degrees for twenty minutes. This prevents early flare-ups from raw metal.
• Maintain airflow gaps: Leave at least one finger-width of space between each pack for consistent smoke circulation and uniform bark development.
• Post-cook bolt check: Temperature changes expand metal slightly. Hand-tighten the pressure brackets once the chamber cools to zero motion during subsequent loads.

• Backyard Beast 1200 owners adding a third cooking tier without factory permits
• Pellet smokers seeking deeper temperature stratification
• Large households managing dinner rushes or catering orders
• Competition crews staging separate temperature bands for brisket, ribs, and sides
