Mom and dad used to do that.
They also looked for old pieces of galvanized corrugated steel to line
fire pits with.

Rocks make good stands for the feet.

I've got to look up some DO recipes, I've really only ever used it for
braising. Never tried it for actual "roasting" type techniques. I'd like
to do that as I don't like to use my big oven for three different
reasons. It's difficult to clean, it heats up the house in the summer,
AND it burns a lot of electricity and I'm trying to save money on power
bills......
