I live at 5400 feet in elevation. Plus, where my BGE sits, not optimal for aif flow until winter when we get north winds.

I had similiar problems getting a good fire built and sustained as well. Been running a LG BGE for about 3 years now. Anyway, I simply bought the stainless grate to replace the stock grate at the bottom of the fire box a year ago.

It's simple and easy. Made a world of difference and does not interfer with coals or wood. Takes a little more cleaning as smaller burnt pices will fall through buy it's no bother to me.

You can find them on Ebay:

I paid around $30 so this is too enpensive but you get the idea.
