This is why I opted for a side burner on my gas grill. All the smelly and fried foods get cooked there. Cast iron on the grates works too, nothing wrong with that.

It’s dangerous. You need a much higher sided pan. If that’s all you have to use, be prepared to extinguish a grease fire.

I’d recommend a grill mat over the grate, under the pan to try to minimize the risk of a grease fire. It’ll let the heat through but block any spatters.

How badly do you want to keep your eyebrows?

It depends. Are you trying to start a grease fire and burn down your home? If not, then yes.

A rare time for a side burner.
dardenus
The idea is workable but the pan sides need to be higher and you shouldn’t ever fill it more than half way with oil

On a wooden deck? Yup
Once that’s spills over/catches fire, you’re not stopping it.

Yes it is a fire hazard and pretty pointless.

There are safer ways to get a new porch / house.

Yes. Stop doing it.

It’s actually quite smart if you’re trying to cash in on an insurance claim.

What zip code are you in? I want to acclimate myself to observe the horizon in the correct direction.

Nice wooden porch you’ve got there would be a shame if…
princeofpoland
It’s a calculated risk but boy you’re bad at math

It is. It really really is.

Extremely inefficient, 99% of that heat is going somewhere else.
Harder to cook.
Risk of grease fire.

This is just dumb
