The upgrade kit contains the Grill Plate which attaches to the top of the Firebox creating a great grilling surface for outdoor cooking for anything you would want to roast over the hot coals of a campfire. Use charcoal briquettes as your heat source for extended use or slow roasting meats.
Also included is the Boil Plate which also clips securely onto the top of the Folding Firebox camping stove, converting the Firebox into a extremely efficient boiling system to be used with the Cup Charger, a stainless steel water bottle, or any of the stainless steel or titanium space saver cups that fit over the end of a thirty two ounce Nalgene water bottle.
