Roll the wire mesh into a cylinder about 2.5 feet wide and secure the ends tightly with wire. Reinforce the shape with 3–4 vertical support rods evenly spaced inside.
Line the bottom with a layer of large stones for stability, then continue filling the sides with smaller rocks, leaving the center open for the fire.
Place a steel fire ring or metal bowl in the middle to contain the fire and protect the mesh from direct heat.
Set up the hanging grill above the pit using a tripod or suspended frame. Then attach the chains evenly to ensure balance and adjust the height for cooking control.
Light a small fire inside the ring and allow the heat to distribute through the stones before grilling.
