Default Garbage Disposal jams

Perhaps someone has the solution to this problem. We have lived in both the Lantana and Iris model homes. Those models (and I am sure others) have a connection from the disposal to the main drain that frequently clogs. While I am becoming quite proficient with the disassembly and reassembly of the plastic piping to clean out the jam there must be a better solution. The connector to the main drain has a "deflector" which directs the flow downward, and also causes the problem since it minimizes the pipe size. Does any one have a solution?
