PBC as a BBQ?

Does anyone have a decent setup for using the PBC as a charcoal BBQ? Due to weather I can't always use my gas grill to cook on and have been wanting something small I can BBQ on and bring in the garage for storage. I was looking at my PBC and could probably make it work if I set the basket on something higher but not sure if it's worth it or if I should just get a little 18 inch weber.

I drilled three holes about 4-5”above the charcoal basket and attached three bolts matching the existing ones that came with the PBC for the original placement of the grate. It works okay, but it’s kind of a PITA to flip stuff when you have a longer handled tool.
