A live-fire grill has been developed with a central opening and one or more adjustable accessories. In one example, the central opening is covered by a central grate to provide a more typical grilling experience. In another example, the central grate is raised to prevent food loss down the central opening. Surrounding the central opening is a griddle with an outer periphery defining a retention ledge. The retention ledge serves as a backstop to prevent food falling off the griddle and onto the ground. Attached to the grill is one or more rods holding one or more adjustable accessories. The accessories automatically lock in position and may be adjusted both horizontally and vertically. In one example, the accessory is an adjustable grate with 360 degrees of rotation.

An assemblable grill can be dismantled and is easy to clean, and a grill bridge may also be dismantled and is easy to clean. Additionally, the assemblable grill includes first and second stands, and multiple grates assembled such that both side portions thereof are inserted in and coupled to the first and second stands. Furthermore, grates can easily be separated from the first and second stands for cleaning.

An apparatus for smoking food includes a pot having a floor, a sidewall extending upwardly from the floor to an upward edge, and an interior cooking region formed within the sidewall above the floor. A tube extends through the floor into the interior cooking region, forming a first opening adjacent the floor, a second opening adjacent the upward edge, and a height from the first to the second openings. A lid has a perimeter edge to engage the upward edge of the pot. The tube height and the lid location above the tube when engaged with the upward edge provides a smoke passageway from the first opening, through the second opening, into the interior cooking region. A method includes cooking food in an alternate cooking apparatus for an initial time period, after which the food is transferred to the smoking pot apparatus. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for adjustably positioning a fuel source. The apparatus includes a first and second fuel source receiving space and a biasing member. The first fuel source receiving space is defined by a substantially planar first fuel supporting surface and a first wall. The first wall extends substantially perpendicularly from the first fuel supporting surface and circumscribes the first fuel supporting surface. The second fuel source receiving space is hingedly coupled to the first fuel source receiving space. The second fuel source receiving space is defined by a substantially planar second fuel supporting surface and a second wall. The second wall extends substantially perpendicularly from the second fuel supporting surface and circumscribes the second fuel supporting surface. The biasing member is configured to bias at least a portion of the first wall against at least a portion of the second wall.
