Wifey has been after me to do this for a bit. I'm much better with steel than wood although I can carve up a piece of plywood pretty ok.

Let's see your set up.

Got to weld a new firebox on mine, second time it's rusted all too crap, I'm going to get a 2ftx18"x1/4" piece of casing this time.

Choo choo.....mesquite or die!

I rebuilt mine when we were off for the Commie 19

Mine is just 3 kettles, a propane smoker and a Smokey Mountain scattered around the front yard.

I am lost ....... maybe it's all the hexavalent chromium in my diet but ........steel is metal.


?

There is wood there too ya janer.

T1-11 is popular up there

Good point.

Edited for you chicken fuggers.

I iz understand mo betta now

LOL

That metalwork deserves hardwood.

You haven't seen it up close.

Booger welds and hardwood!

Primo kamado in western red cedar with custom concrete counter tops. Spar urethane finish. Suck it.

Dayum!

You build that yourself?

From the surf cuts to the poured concrete and stainless screws.

Shows some real talent TimberRunner!

Just a 10 year old or so folding Aussie Grill

Trex deck replacement during covid. Yellow thunder makes a guest appearance.

BBQ is something you eat. You cook it on a smoker, a grill, or in a pit.

Don't be a big 'mo.....

That's impressive.

Next we'll be taught that BBQ sauce doesn't have any vinegar, or tomato sauce, or sweet stuff, or maybe that REAL BBQ only uses rub.

Nice work! Did you consider a 300 series stainless top?

Nice solution.

I've got a Primo XL with their cart, a Weber Summit charcoal on their tripod wheelie fugger, and a griddle on the patio. Looks like hell out there if they aren't tucked away immediately after use.


Been meaning to do something but the list is never ending.

I think that’s my favorite color of decking now. I did a deck 20 years ago and the owner had me put metal track down and screw it up from the bottom showing no screws. I think the deck brand was Evergrain . It had more plastic in it than Trex. Smelled bad and would expand and contract too much for me.

Schidt no!

Teak wood is nice and holds up outside?

Now we’re building decks out of Teak and 300 stainless…. Fuggin lifestyles of the rich and famous 🥴💀🥴

No kidding!

Sheesh!

I like working for the rich and famous, it’s a lot easier getting my money!

Very, very well done!!!!!!

In my new winter carport/summer bbq haven. Along with my new Blackstone griddle

Were my boy wit da cinder block and garbage screen setup.

Went all out with the custom table[one step up from Geno] :

I was talking BBQ’s , that’s what the thread states.

Show us yours.

That's a grill. BBQ is something you eat.

He prayed for 1, then the very next day, found a NIB 1, on the side of the highway !!!

He desperately needed it but alas it had no charcoal within that he could eat to save his very existence.

Excuse me, I’m from the south. Those pictures you’all are showing are grills. BBQ or Barbeque is something that is cooked on a smoker. Those of you from Texas especially should know this!
Rick

Ha!

There is beef being grilled[BBQ'd for some] contained under the lid in the pic of my 'grill'

You talkin' about our Texican friend?

You awfully fancy there fella,

mine gets to sit out in the inclement weather even.



Only 2" or so overnight, it's been through a lot worse

I actually had just moved mine over to the 'custom' table that evening when it started raining.
Normal spot[where it sits at this moment]:

I need to take good pics of my pit next time I use it….. I buried a 48” x 12” tall section of concrete pipe with a manhole cone on top that is about another 30” tall…. I build a big azz fire in it until I get about 6” of coals…… then I throw the meat in wrapped in foil….. put a metal lid on manhole and burry with another 6” or so of wet dirt and water until I don’t see any smoke escaping…… I’ll do briskets or turkeys….. I’ve done whole hogs…. We even did a steers head one time for tacos….. it makes the most tender juicy meat I’ve ever eaten but because it’s wrapped in foil you don’t get the smoke flavor like you do from a smoker or grill….. I need to experiment with a elevated rack or hanging the meat exposed but meat is expensive lol.

I grill on a BGE.

I make BBQ on a Pit Barrel Cooker or occasionally a pellet smoker.

Slummy's


Dis will do doe.

If you are talking steak or similar it’s grilled unless it’s been on there for 10 or 12 hours, then it can be Barbeque.
Rick

I agree 100%[kinda chuckle when peoples say "BBQ'ing" when they are actually grilling]

From the culinary wizards to bring the world chitlins.......

I'll have you know that 'chitlins' have and will never see the inside of my BBQ[grill for those in the know].

Chitlins are best smoked low and slow over a mesquite fire.

Nor my egg then!

My primo XL is a great grill, it is an even better smoker.

Pork


Lamb


Turkey


Brisket

Dats enough fo dat chit.

We're going to have a BBQ this weekend.

Hot dogs, corn on the cob, potato salad, beans and beer.

I hope nobody points out that my BBQ is supported by a table that doesn't have stainless steel screws I made myself....

Didja make the hot dogs yourself?

Ok yu foos

straight outta the Merriam Webster book......well, website at least (See 3: my bold)


https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/barbecue

If the Merriam Webster ain't right we all in a whole lotta trouble.

Still waiting on Alan_C 's pic.

You sittin' there with a nice drink and a big stogie?

Might take awhile.

Was thinkin bout fishin.

I understand.

Was thinkin about it too. Not sure if the trout streams are open yet. Even if, it was 40F with a wind chill of 35F and spittin' snow, sleet, and rain a little bit ago.

I'm sitting in a warm house, with a nice fire in the stove, and my wife just popped a couple of loaves of semolina bread in the oven.

Prolly not fishin' today.

Chili contains beans. Chili con carne means you get meat with your beans….

On a less flammable note:


I’ve been searching for my unicorn glass 3wt, and think I found it. Tweren’t cheap, but the Steffens 8’ 3/4 wt is just delightful. No trout have been harmed as yet, but a fair amount of the local pond’s bluegill have some sore lips.

That was Tuesday and 70°, snowing here today….

^^^^^^^^CORRECT^^^^^^^^

excuse please,

but WTF does a fella from Down Under know about chili.

stick to your own tucker, like shrimps on the barbie

Dude, that fiery post was meant to generate more heat than light, you sure you want in on this ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tell a guy, who doesn't like to cook, that you wouldn't smash this !!





Only 3 different kindsa beanzes in that 1 !

Lake Amador next Sat is on the agenda. Hope to catch a few.

That ain't chili... It's bean soup.

That would be the 13th?

Hopefully the weather cooperates for you

Thank you Bart for setting him straight.

I prefer my chili the way God intended.

Meat, not beans.

The beans just make it easier to get the meat out....................

Leave out the kidney beans, and yeah, I'd eat the heck out of it. Just not a fan of kidney beans, at all. Pintos or black beans for me, thanks.

That ain't bean soup, it's chili...

Meat juice soup?

That's just how my day went. Except for the baked bread. My wife made baked ziti.

The bread turned out wonderfully.


Will have some for lunch most likely. Staying in and warm again today. Few minutes ago it was just 32F and wind chill of 25F.

Nice soup
