Trivets, etc.

Any good sources for trivets to hold flat bottomed pots/pans above the fire? Thanks in advance!

Tell me more what you are trying to do. A trivet is typically something you would place in a Dutch oven to keep food off the bottom of pan to keep it from burning.

But according to your post you are trying to keep flat bottom pans above a fire?

I guess I used the wrong terminology... I'm looking for a stand that holds a flat-bottomed pot up a few inches so embers or charcoal can be placed underneath.

Thanks!

Can't remember if I have this exact brand or something similar:

Texsport Heavy Duty Over Fire Camp Grill​

Do a search for camp grill and you'll find something good. Some will swing over, then away from the fire which might be cool.

I like that Kent Rollins one .
I made this years ago for holding a pot of water at deer camp . Before we had hot water down there .
Might work for this too , but I probably have as much in that as a store bought one .

For high temperature stands, I use 3/8 rebar. 20' stick for $8. My Home Depot has a shear so I can fit two 10' pieces in the car and just pay for a 20'.

Bend it: over-up-back-across-over-down-back if you can't picture it in your mind.

Helps to make it a little shorter than you think. You can always make a U-bend (and stick pairs of various diameter pipe nipples over the two ends) to add more height.

This is the way I place a large CI pan in my pellet grill to add extra smoke.

I got a little cheaper version since I'm not sure how much I'm use it.

The pic shows it in place on the "fire pit" that was part of a whole animal rotisserie kit I recently bought; I thought the pit would make a good fire table so wanted a stand to put frying pans and other legless pots and pans. This one can do double duty as a grill as well. My Dutch oven and bigger stew pot have legs so there's room for one of those beside the camp grill.

I included a pic with the whole rotisserie kit as well. I'm hoping to figure out a way to mount the spit and motor on my Santa Maria grill for smaller cooks as well.

Awesome set up!
