Our used "King" model Blaze King stove came with a small wood rack and I was wondering if that's supposed to be used? I'm asking because it's kind of hard to get the fire going with the wood 4-5 inches above the coals. Am I supposed to get the fire going with a good bed of coals and then put the little rack back in and load her up? I'm a complete novice to this so any advice would be appreciated.
Are you supposed to use a rack in a Blaze King?

Don't use the rack. It is not required or desirable.
Pg 32 of the BKK manual says:
1. DO NOT USE A GRATE. BUILD THE FIRE DIRECTLY ON THE BRICK IN THE BOTTOM OF THE STOVE.

Thanks for clearing that up for me guys.
Jeff_t, it's a 1983 KEJ without the glass door. From what I understand it's a king model before they were called a king.
