Default grill as a fire pit

"Aaron Fude" wrote in message ...
Hi,

I have a ton of scraps from home construction and rather than throw it
out I'd like to burn it. (Many reasons: nails, limits on trash amount
and weight, would use soot on my compost pile.) I don't have a proper
fire pit but I do have a large bowl grill. Anything wrong with using it
as a fire pit?

Thanks,

Aaron


Possibly. Grills are built and rated for specific maximum temperatures.
If you exceed that temp on yours, either by overloading it or burning
the wrong material, you risk failure and collapse of the grill.
