I have been looking at every picture, every build I can find. I see all kinds of metal nuts, bolts & pans for charcoal baskets going into cookers being built. The safest has to be aluminum, SS & carbon steel. I've even see some brass from lamp parts. Is Zinc Plated & Electro Galvanized really that bad? Even if you had them in a "Burn out", wouldn't that remove most if the danger of toxic chemicals being released?
What's you honest opinion? Everone's got one.
That's what I've heard.
