All the Hunsaker baskets I’ve got are on a 22” charcoal grate platform. I know that they won’t fit in my 30 Gallon Drum or an 18” Kettle. I’m pretty sure that they are using an 18” charcoal grate platform now.
As far as being able to use the lower grate- I’m not sure why you’d want to? Meats on the lower grate are going to be so close to intense heat and they’ll act as a heat sink to the upper grate meats. Plus the fact you’re going to have to rotate upper and lower meats and in doing so you’ll risk a grease fire because all that shifting around the lid will be off and all that oxygen is going to stoke the fire and it’s a recipe for disaster
