I don't see why not, as long as you can fit medium to small sized logs so the grill can seat properly

Absolutely!! I use both regular and wood lump charcoal, but the construction of this grill will easily stand up to the intense heat of raw wood. Grill On!!

Depends on the size of fire and how dry your wood is. You can make it well over 700 degrees (f) if you want. Regulating the heat is the real trick to using it. Making it hot is no issue.

just put wood chips directly on the supplied square steel plate and place that directly on the heating element; cook on high with steak on grill above drip pan; use meat thermometer and do not overcook larger pieces of meat work better

Yes, but it will be more of a grilled fish with smoke flavor, not truly smoke-dried. You do not use a whole lot of wood chips in this, it is only to enhance the flavor while cooking. As long as the fish fits on the cooking plate, it will be fine. The plate is non-stick coated to help keep the food from burning to the cooking surface and it works really well.

I have used wood but unless you use very dense wood like mesquite it burns very quickly. Best to use a combination of wood and charcoal. Imparts fantastic flavor.

You can use the grill on wood and aluminum. I do not recommend using it on plastic. The grill stands high enough for most surfaces.

No. You need to remove the grate for adding wood. This is much larger than either of those stoves. I use it for cooking with my 8 quart dutch oven. It is a BBQ not a stove.

With no problem. I did it myself. You put the wood you want to use in the small end and place the turkey is the large end and the smoke from the fire cooks the turkey. I used a fresh Turkey and was surprised on how fast it cooked. I used Kiawa wood which made the smoked meat amazing.

yes,but remember, only over low heat such as your simmer setting. Higher heat settings discolor the metal andcould potentially char the wood handle.

I think you can but the handle is wooden and you have to put it up otherwise it can burn

I have this grill and just bought a small metal patio table for it. It also will sit nicely on a wooden picnic table.

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.

Oh, yeah. Cast iron can handle the high heat. You're gonna love the grill marks. It's really the way to go.

Sort of. Just use any skillet and place over the grill. Some time ago I purchased a three set of cast iron skillets I use for camping. These and I am sure others work well

I use it in my outdoor fire pit which is fueled by gas. I don't see how you can use this with a wood burning fireplace.

No, not unless you have some type of heat shield that you can put under the fire pit. The pit gets very hot and will damage the wood under it.
