I've got the firepit here in the UK, now I just need the other raising/grate combo

The grate worked out great and although there wasn't a time it felt like it was unstable I think I might wire-tie it to the ring to have that extra assurance that everything that was sitting atop it would be ruined if someone wasn't careful.


I'd wire-tie around these flared out tabs on the lid support.


I'm going to do some tests with a remote themometer for temps and try ribs one day and salmon another.


The tins were getting warm slowly without the lid over it- very slowly.  Putting the lid on contained the heat and smoke and the queso melted at a better rate and the chili warmed up to a simmer with the lid on so maybe perfect for smoking up under there!


here's a link to the video of it in action

I feel guilty saying how much I'm enjoying the quarantine and being able to cook every day
