Hey guys,
I have a pit barrel cooker and want to tailgate this weekend. For space purposes I would like to hang sausages from one rebar and then have about 20 drum sticks cooking flat on the grate. I think I might be able to use bolt cutters to remove some of the "grates."
My question is: has anyone cut a grill grate before? Will I lose stability if I take out about 1/3 of the grates? Maybe leave the one central grate?
Photo attached - the yellow lines show the direction of the grates I want to cut out so I can hang.
I already did the measurement and you can't hang sausages on top of the grate, they wouldn't hang right. Also, this would allow something like ribs on the right and ABTs on the left. And part of this is just because its awesome to hang stuff and I have an extra (WSM grate) that I can easily cut up.
