Custom Charcoal/Wood Firebox Grate 25" l x 17" w is built for pitmasters who need dependable airflow, cleaner-burning fires, and a stronger coal bed inside their smoker firebox. If your current grate warps, clogs with ash, or struggles to maintain consistent combustion, this heavy-duty replacement grate is designed to improve airflow and help your smoker run more efficiently.
Built from durable 3/16" thick A36 steel and made in the USA, this firebox grate is engineered for high heat, repeated burns, and long-term durability. Whether you are upgrading an offset smoker, restoring a pit, or building a custom firebox setup, this grate provides the strength and airflow serious outdoor cooks demand.
Grates take 1-2 weeks to mail from the date of purchase as every grate is cut to order.

A properly designed firebox grate plays a major role in maintaining efficient airflow and stable temperatures. This grate helps elevate charcoal and wood off the bottom of the firebox so oxygen can circulate underneath the fuel source for stronger combustion and more consistent heat.
The heavy-duty 3/16" A36 steel construction provides significantly more durability than lighter A36 alternatives while holding up to repeated high-heat cooks.
Precision-Cut for Long-Term DurabilityEvery grate is precision-cut from high-quality A36 steel and built to withstand demanding BBQ environments. Whether you are running overnight brisket cooks, feeding wood splits into a live-fire offset smoker, or cooking at higher temperatures, this grate is engineered for dependable long-term use.
The 25" l x 17" w footprint offers ample support for charcoal and wood while maintaining strong airflow inside the firebox.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
