The BBQ is an American way of life.  From the moment the weather hints at improvement, the grill is fired up.  Every meat tastes better cooked on the grill.  Corn on the cob never tastes better then fresh from the grill.  Time spent getting acquainted with red hot coals brings out unique and delicious flavors in fruits and vegetables.

It’s the smoke, the charcoal or the gas, the great outdoors and the secret seasonings that make BBQ food so special.  There are TV shows devoted to demonstrating various recipes and techniques just for the BBQ.  There are national completions in categories for various meats and or cuts of meat.  Some contests even include a desert category.  People flock to these events from every state in the Union, stay up all night tending their fires and adding their special recipes just at the right moment.  All in an effort to win bragging rights.

A built-in BBQ in your own back yard provides extra beauty to your overall landscape while keeping life simple and comfortable.  It is easy to manage cooking times and travel is only seconds.  The secret recipe is safely locked in your head with no one looking over your shoulder.  Bragging rights are always assured.
