We bought an amazing new grill and are wondering to do beside our old one excluding throwing it out. The burner is shot and we can't find a replacement one but the rest of it is structurally sound I lately want to know how to turn it into a charcoal grill or a bbq smoker...I had thought in the region of lining the bottom beside ceramic tiling, but I don't dream up that will supply proper air flow...any suggestions?

Just bring in sure about how the ashes spatter out the bottom .....some are pretty open and may start a fire below if you aren't discreet but I have done this back too. It is not perfect because its knotty to make a flare up travel out by closing the top because its designed to have plenty of nouns in the firebox. Regular Grill designed for charcoal have better air control.
