IMHO the best firepit is a old washing machine drum. we have one I carry along, use it for fire, and virtually all our cooking. virtually no smoke and lots of heat, and cuts down on the wood useage as well. I welded three nuts on the bottom with long bolts so I can raise it up if needed, and built a shelf to put inside when used for cooking, and a weber grill replacement usually is a perfect fit on the top.
Mean one of these?
CG in Westport, WA had these at the sites.
One of the real reasons for the fire bans is not really the fire itself it's the sparks from the fire being carried by wind. With propane you don't have to worry about sparks of course.
yup, the good old "maytag" firepit. Just needs to be seasoned for a decade or so in the laundry room!! LOL.
Looks just like mine. Best one are the Stainless steel drums if you can find one.
