can burning galvanized surfaces with a propane torch extract the toxins in the metal?
I am building a dutch oven (cajun microwave) from wood and intend to use galvanized sheeting to for the charcoal pan and the drip pan. Can I simply burn the toxins out of the metal with a bernz-o-matic propane torch.
No! Definitely not!...In my former life as a mechanic, many years ago, I remember using an acetylene torch to cut a galvanized water tank in half for a bath to test tires for leaks...
I was sick as a dog for 2 days! Those fumes are not good!
I would try and get some stainless steel sheets or even regular sheet metal would be better than galvanized. You don't want that crap going into your food.
