I've always thought the PBC design is far less suitable for grilling than smoking due to the significant distance (18"?) between the coal basket and the grate, so I tried a new idea for grilling a few steaks today. I stacked a few bricks in the bottom and then used by my charcoal chimney as the heat source since it's able to produce very high heat in a concentrated area which is ideal for steaks. The only drawback is that if you're cooking a very large steak like the one pictured, it's more difficult to get it evenly cooked throughout. Regardless, this technique proved to have good potential so I'm sure I'll be trying it again.
