Pretty cool of you ask me, he used to cook for the entire neighborhood and his extended family and friends at least twice a season. Popular fellow, especially with the hay rides for kids and bon fires.

It looked like a snap to build, the most difficult part was prolly getting the ground flat and level. It sorta seemed like over kill sometimes but he was that kind of guy, he would start a seperate camp fire just for the baked potatoes.

I have always thought that a brick pizza oven would have been a cool addition to these outdoor appliances.

I just noted that you specifically said BBQ, sorry if this does not apply since it was strictly a Grill and you could not technically BBQ.

Are you going to roast some hogs, chicken or ribs?
