black iron pipe

So I need to make a makeshift grate for my pig cooker - recent trip to Lowes found some black cast iron pipe - not the sewer drain style, this is used for plumbing gas inside the house. It appears to have a thin coating on the outside - I was thinking of burning this in my cooker on high (about 525) and then making a secondary sort of grate out of it. I could then wrap in foil before using it on actual food. Wasn't sure if anyone had any other ideas or reasons not to do this.

Also heard of some bare metal square tubing called unistrut - anyone know about that and whether it is a better alternative?

Thanks!

The coating is lacquer.
