Friends,
I'm working on an idea to add a second grate to my performer mainly because I need more room when I do chicken wings. My crowd eats a lot; I need about 50 and I can get thirty on an indirect cook. I'm guessing I can get at least 20 on a second grate.
What I'm considering is an elevated grate above my cast iron grate, using bolts attached to the second grate with washers, extending down a few inches and "standing" on the lower grate with more washers. Has anybody tried such a setup? What size grate did you use and where did you get it? Any help will be greatly (no pun again) appreciated!
