I cut my teeth on the Cimmaron. Nice pit.
I think it's a drain, in case you get water in the firebox. I have never taken it out.
Raising the fire grate helps, but one mod I did was to close off the top half of the intake vent. It forces air to come under and through the fire. Of course, I haven't used it in a long time.

Was this the pit that was out around Lake of the Ozarks? I found one a few weeks back on CL but the guy wanted more than would've been worth driving all the way out there on a few pictures and faith..
Either way, its always nice to see a sturdy pit like that find a good home instead of the scrap heap.

It looks like you have the exhaust damper almost closed in your cook picture. I run my Cimmaron with the exhaust wide open and the intake damper open just a sliver or closed and maintain 250-275 all day. The only mod I have done is to put in an expanded metal shelf in the firebox to keep the coals about 3 inches off the bottom; the one that comes with it will get choked out with ash real quick.
