Know before you buy
While the tray is specifically engineered to fit the dimensions and configuration of the Barebones Cowboy Grill Fire Pit, its 18.5-inch diameter may fit other fire pits of similar size. However, it is optimized for the Cowboy Grill system.
Yes, the tray is constructed from high-temperature coated stainless steel, making it durable enough to handle the heat from both charcoal briquettes and wood logs.
The 2-inch clearance provides a necessary buffer between the hot tray and the surface beneath it. This helps protect your patio or ground cover from direct heat damage while allowing for better airflow to the fire.
You can use the tray independently to contain a fire, but to use it as a functional grill, you will need to pair it with the Barebones Fire Pit Grill Grate. The two components are designed to work together as a complete cooking system.
After the tray has completely cooled, brush off any remaining ash and debris. You can clean the surface with mild soap and water; avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that could damage the high-temperature coating.
