Steel Fire Pit Ring with Cooking Grate

A steel fire ring creates a defined, safer boundary for backyard fires. The cooking grate adds real utility, letting you grill simple foods over coals. Use dry, split wood for cleaner burn and fewer sparks. Place it on level ground with clearance from fences and low branches. A ring also helps keep logs from rolling out when the fire settles. For cooking, wait until you have a stable coal bed for more even heat. Clean ash out after use so moisture does not accelerate rust. A light coat of oil on the grate can reduce sticking and make cleanup easier. It is a simple centerpiece for gatherings when you want warmth, light, and occasional cooking without extra gear.
