If it truly is good for that temp, it should even be OK in the fire box.

The other thing I don't like about it is the propensity to tip forward when lifted by the bail. I want to counterweight it with something on the bottom towards the rear to counteract that. I wish they would have put the bail lugs at the balance point rather than the center of the fire box.

Thanks for the info! Hoping I don't experience a big problem with rust. Unless I screw up (and that never happens ), this thing will never see a drop of outside moisture.
