Cracked or broken firebox/fire ring

As long as your firebox and/or fire ring as well as your grill are stable, you can continue to use them even if they are broken. This has no further harmful effect. 

Note: if your firebox/fire ring is broken or cracked, you cannot repair it with stove sealant, for example.
