What’s wrong with that?  That’s how I do it most of the time. I’ll use baskets on the 70’s grills but I don’t think you can hurt a black grill with heat. I’ve tried.

It’s a 18” compact kettle sold here in Europe .. this is the blue wave? color.
It is basically the exact same as the new Jumbo Joe but with legs.
It just surprises me how stupid people can be when they attach the lid hook on the OutSide of the lid.
