BBQ time

[locoboy]

Fellow fabricators........

I am looking for this part of a charcoal bbq

I am planning on making a brick bbq this easter and would like the firebox and grill from something like this to nestle within my wonky brickwork

Im after something secondhand so are any of you guys swapping from charcoal to gas this season and have a bbq going spare that can be butchered to suit my needs for a little money?

Or how hard would it be to make a firebox of similar dimensions with an ash drawer at the bottom and the grill bit for the top?

Many thanks
Col

you can but they look absolutely ****!

The depth of the charcoal tray is about an inch

Do what my granddad used to do, make a tray that about 3 inches deep out of some 4 mm plate, and drill some 5mm holes in the bottom, make two handles on the side of the tray that sticks up about 3 inches and put a cast iron pan on it, you can get ones that are just a flat piece of iron with some ridges in it. Just make sure it's a solid one, no slots or hole in it. Then you just chuck you coal in the tray, light it, let it burn for a while, chuck the pan on top on the handles, chuck some oil and you meat on the pan, and you're cooking!
