text: For some reason I thought this elevated grate would cover half the cooking area. Nope, covers about a third. Not much room to add big items. First time I put a small 2 pound pork loin piece and one rack of ribs, all I could fit. Very pricey item for adding a small amount of space. I would not purchase this again. Nothing wrong quality wise, just small and pricey. Might be worth it for half the price.
