  • About
A Tuscan grill is a heavy metal grate (usually cast iron) with legs; it’s designed to allow you to grill in a fireplace. A simple model consists of a square or rectangular grate with four 4- to 6-inch-high legs. More elaborate models have a slotted vertical frame, so you can raise or lower the grate to control the intensity of the heat.
