Hi Guys,

Just moved house and am determined to have a brick BBQ for next summer.

Is there an internet wide ban on offering brick BBQ plans

I cant seem to find any at all

Anyone got any ideas or Links?

I'd have thought a locoster, with all his engineering ingenuity, wouldn't need plans for a brick BBQ? Just get some bricks to form a U shape, make a 'tub' out of some steel sheet for the coals, and some wire mesh above this on top of the bricks. Jobs a good un

The best one I have seen is in a Readers Digest DIY manual that I bought for a quid in a charity shop. If I can find and you still want it, I will photo copy it and post to you. I will U2U when found.

I know that this is not brick--and I really like brick grills, but where I come from-if it doesn't smoke it ain't BBQ. Most people that are good with working large chunks of metal make brick bases with a heavy metal insert. Usually made from oilfield casing or other suitable sized tubing. The best grill/smokers are made in a small town where I work. See: http://www.kingfisherkookers.com/products_KomboKookers.htm

Stick with birds....more statisfying and easier on the tools.
