How is the height of the charcoal grate adjusted?

The four individual cooking grates are not adjustable. The charcole pan itself is manually adjusted up or down before lighting the charcole. We used ours for the first time a few weeks ago at a family reunion and easily grilled lamb on one side of the grates and added marinated size 8 shrimp on the other side to have everything come off and be served together. You will love the generous cooking area!

There are three different hooks to adjust the level. They are inside but the handles are up top so you can do it while its hot. Use towel. Easy to do.

Yes it is adjustable between 18.5 and 22.5 inches so if there is no problem there. The only issue I would see you having is the ammount of open space below the grate for the fire. It needs to be fairly close to get a good cook on pizza ect. I get mine to 650 degrees and that's where im making good pizza.

I was also confused by the measurements that were listed in the ad, since they are not correct. The grate fits fine.

The cooking grate has a slot in the center that you pull off with a tool provided with the unit. The tool can be used to stir the fire, empty the ashes and remove the grate. You can also use it to swivel the top grate. Using a water pan diffuser makes it difficult to add more charcoal, but that's generally reserved for slow cooks, which you should never have to add charcoal for those.

My grill grate is 13-11/16". Although that last 1/16" may be a crust of seasoning from use.

I never found a good way. This item is a better smoker than it is a grill. I could never get the coals close enough to the grill to sear a steak, so i got a piece of grate and a couple of bricks and just raised the level about four inches. It works much better.

The grates on a gas grill may be too tall for the feet on the cover.....it is raised about half an inch

Yes. Just be cautious of fire temp. If you get it really high you will warp the charcoal grate

There is a single grate. If you're concerned about heat getting too high just keep the charcoal to the side and cook the meat indirectly, use less charcoal, or water spray the burning charcoal regularly while cooking, then let the coals heat up more for other foods.

On each side of the charcoal tray is a bracket with three (3) levels. Simply raise or lower the tray to the desired height. Even at it's highest level the coals are about 5-6 inches from the food, but it cooks as fast as any other grill I've ever used and doesn't blaze up very much.

While I haven't tried it, I think the legs are too short. Though, you could probably stack bricks or similar under the four legs to increase the height. If you use a cast iron wood carrier in the fireplace to make sure the flaming logs have air underneath the challenge might be a little greater. The grate itself is cast iron, but since the grate bars are triangular, like a Toblerone chocolate, I imagine the flame will hit a larger surface area of the meat. Not sure it would work well. It might but I don't know. My gut tells me that this grill is best used over a bed of coals.

If you are talking about this grate adjusting to the Hight over the coals, then no this does not do that. This grate is for using the grill as a smoker and the grate lifts so you can add more wood and coals. It sits on the regular grate shelf just like the grate from the factory.

About three and a half inches from the grate where you will place charcoal on.

Mine has a "finger latch" at the top of the handle. Loosen it and then you can pull up to extend to the desired height.
