Level out the grate also...lol. go indirect when baking also double up the pan to keep it off the setter.

For any baking, you need to go indirect.  Also looks like your Egg may be listing to the right.

Definitely indirect and use a heavier pan to help with hot spots.

My deck has a "1 in 10" slope, but I think over the years it has sunk and is more pronounced like 3 in 10 now. When I bake cakes I find it easier to place a spacer I keep handy on top of my fire ring and then my PS rests on it. I use one of those inexpensive bulls eye levels to check.
