Over-Under Grill Thingy: Stand and Grill In One! (BACKORDER)
Pre-order — current LavaBox estimate is mid-August 2026 for the Over/Under. Handmade to order in Colorado.
Adaptable. Durable. Built for the Box.
The Over/Under Grill Thingy is a rugged multitool for your LavaBox setup—functioning as a grill, a trivet, or a raised platform that meets Forest Service fire regulations. Whether you’re cooking shrimp skewers, elevating your flame, or protecting your camp surface, this versatile attachment has you covered.
Made from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, the Over/Under is engineered to withstand heat, flames, and the abuse of travel. Clip it directly to your LavaBox rim for grill mode, raise it for high-clearance burn compliance, or drop it low to keep your fire off the ground. When the job is done, it folds down flat to stow neatly inside your BugOut Bag.
Whether you’re meeting fire regulations or grilling over open flame, the Over/Under is your go-to accessory for turning your LavaBox into a full-featured fire and cooking system. Add one to your kit and take total control of your flame.
"A prudent person foresees danger ahead and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. - Proverbs 27:12"

FOREST-SAFE PORTABLE CAMPFIRE
A campfire inside an ammo can. Born during Colorado fire season, built so the fire stays where you want it.
LavaBox was invented by Josh Thurmond — a 25-year expedition leader, raft, kayak, and climbing guide — out of Colorado during forest fire season. The idea: take a military-grade ammo can, build a propane burner inside, and you've got a fire-safe portable campfire that works during fire bans, on rafts, and anywhere an open fire isn't welcome. The team partners with Protect Our Rivers and is built around "keeping the fire alive while protecting the wild places we all depend on." Josh's title at the company is Chief Eruption Officer.

Great product design.
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're glad you love the design.
Just as expected and as described.
Answers, straight up.
Product-specific questions on the left. Shopping with SRO on the right. Both open-ended — hit us if we missed one.
Why is this a pre-order when it shows stock?
LavaBox builds to order in Colorado and opens each production run for pre-sale, so the quantity you see reflects units in the current build rather than boxes sitting on a shelf. Your order reserves a unit in that run. Check the lead time on this page before ordering, and reach out if you need it by a specific date.
When will my pre-order ship?
Ship dates depend on which model you order and where it falls in the current production run. The lead time shown on this page is our most recent estimate direct from LavaBox. These are handmade in small batches and dates can move — if the timing matters for a trip or a gift, email us before you order and we will confirm the current run status.
Can I cancel a pre-order?
Yes. If the lead time no longer works for you, contact us and we will cancel and refund the order as long as it has not already shipped. We would rather cancel cleanly than have you waiting on something you needed last week.
What does it do?
It works as both a stand and a grill in one piece, so you can raise the LavaBox off the ground and cook on it without carrying two separate accessories.
Which LavaBoxes does it fit?
It is designed for the LavaBox fire pits, including the Original and the Hekla. It is also bundled into the Aso Super Pack and the Campfire Kitchen.
When will it ship?
LavaBox currently estimates Over/Under Grill Thingies ship mid-August 2026. Supply has been the constraint rather than demand, so dates are manufacturer estimates and can shift.
How long does shipping take?
Most in-stock orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, not counting weekends and federal holidays. Special-order, dealer-direct, custom, and LYNX Survival Systems orders can take longer. Lead times shown on product pages are estimates, not guarantees.
Typical carrier transit after that: Economy 5 to 7 business days, Expedited 2 to 3, Overnight 1. These are carrier estimates, not guarantees. Some items, such as lithium batteries, aerosols, and safety matches, may be limited to ground shipping.
Free Economy shipping on qualifying orders over $150 to the contiguous US, on eligible products. Oversized, heavy, freight, hazardous-material, dealer-direct, custom-built, and special-order items may be excluded. Oversized and freight items, such as rooftop tents, recovery equipment, and Pro Eagle products, may carry extra shipping charges. If extra charges apply, we'll let you know before the order ships.
Some items ship directly from the manufacturer or a supplier partner on their own schedule, so an order can arrive in more than one package with more than one tracking number. Full details: Shipping Policy.
What’s your return policy?
You have 30 days from receiving your order to request a return on eligible items. Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com with your order number, the item, and the reason, and wait for return authorization before you ship anything back. Returns sent without authorization may be refused.
Items must come back in like-new condition: unused, unmodified, unworn, unwashed, and free of odors, dirt, stains, pet hair, and damage, with all original packaging, manuals, accessories, and tags, plus proof of purchase.
For standard parcel items, you pay return shipping unless the return is due to our error, shipping damage, or a verified defect. If we provide a prepaid label, its cost may be deducted from your refund. For oversized, freight, dealer-direct, and special-order items, you pay return shipping unless the item arrived damaged, defective, or incorrect. Original shipping charges aren't refunded. Some items may carry a restocking fee of up to 15%, and we'll tell you during authorization.
Some items are fulfilled by third-party suppliers and follow that supplier's return policy, so eligibility, refund timing, return shipping, and restocking fees may differ.
Approved refunds go to your original payment method. Allow up to 10 business days after approval, and your bank may take longer to post it. Full details: Return & Refund Policy.
What can’t I return?
These can't be returned or refunded, except where the law requires it:
- Engraved, personalized, customized, and built-to-order products, and special-order products obtained specifically for you
- LYNX Survival Systems survival kits, custom IFAKs, and custom medical kits
- Agency, government, organizational, and contract-built orders
- Gift cards, and sale or clearance items marked final sale
- Food, drink, and other perishable products, including emergency food
- Personal care, hygiene, and beauty products
- Hazardous materials, and flammable liquids or gases
- Opened or used medical products
- Opened water treatment or purification products with broken factory seals
- Anything marked non-returnable on its product page
For built-to-order, custom, and special-order items, exceptions may be made only for verified manufacturing defects, shipping damage, or fulfillment errors. For food and drink, replacements may be issued only for verified manufacturing defects or shipping damage reported within 5 days of delivery, with photos.
Not sure whether an item qualifies? Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com before you order.
Do you ship outside the contiguous US?
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and other U.S. territories aren't eligible for free shipping, and extra freight charges may apply. If your order needs a shipping quote, we'll contact you before it ships. If you decline the quote, the order may be canceled and refunded. APO/FPO addresses are also excluded from free shipping.
International shipping is available on select products and destinations, and some products may be restricted from international shipping. You're responsible for import duties, taxes, customs fees, brokerage fees, and meeting your country's import rules.
Full details: Shipping Policy.
My package arrived damaged. What now?
Inspect your order when it arrives. If anything is damaged, defective, or wrong, email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com within 7 days of delivery (5 days for food and drink) with your order number, a short description, and photos of the item and the packaging.
You don't pay return shipping on items that arrived damaged or wrong, or with a verified defect. Some items fulfilled by third-party suppliers follow that supplier's policy instead. Reporting after 7 days may limit our ability to pursue a claim with the carrier, and while we may help with a carrier claim, approval is up to the carrier.
Package lost or never arrived? Contact us within 7 days of the expected delivery date. For freight deliveries, inspect the shipment before you sign and note any visible damage on the carrier's delivery receipt.
Can I talk to a human before buying?
Yes. Call (562) 294-6269, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Pacific time, or email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com. We reply within one business day.
We'd rather talk you out of a kit that doesn't fit your mission than sell you the wrong one.
Do you offer a military/first-responder discount?
Yes. Current and former U.S. military, military spouses and dependents, and first responders, including law enforcement, fire, and EMS, can save up to 10% on most of our products through GovX ID.
Verify on our GovX discount page and you'll get a single-use code to enter at checkout. For later orders, log in with GovX ID for a new code (limit one code per day). The GovX code can't be combined with other discounts.
