So gunna be making grates for my new fridge smoker wonder what everyone uses
Looking at using expanded metal but what thickness are we using out there found some #9 from grainger
 
You may need to strengthen the gates a bit with other metal. I've used 1/2" angle to make perimeter and flat across the middle section.
