I built this barbecue shack

It's mostly salvaged materials because of course it is, I built it. Anyway I wanted a barbecue shack, I'm always out there cooking, and why should only douchebags have outdoor kitchens? So I built this today in about 4 hours. I didn't get a permit, don't tell Babylon.

"Damn Bizzle, clean your yard brooooooo" yeah I know.

BBQ? Check. Comfy lawn chair? Check. Just needs a beverage cooler and perfect.

This looks great but uhh... why did you tilt the water towards and on to your home? You may want to rotate this if you can.

That's not going to be good long term.

That's just a garage, and I'm going to add a gutter

Just cut the difference off the front posts and add them to the back two. Plenty of fancy joints out there to make them strong.

The joints?

Pocket screws

I'm not sure it is tilted at all, and that it is just the perspective making it appear as it is. But yeah tilted away would be preferable.

Mannnnnnnn I wish I didn't have to worry about snow loads where I live. If I built one of those it would probably need double the lumber to keep it from collapsing.

Thanks to climate change maybe you can in a few more years

redlemace@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 174d

What time do we light it up?

Jerb322@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 174d

Nice

Wow. That looks... ...salvaged!

bizzle@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 174d (1 reply)

Someone's gotta use it

Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 174d

Totally. We had something like this but our grill didn't have legs.

Nice! Are you planning to actually barbecue in there, or is it a grill shack?

bizzle@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 174d (1 reply)

That Weber once smoked a brisket for 22 hours and just a few weeks ago it did 20# of pulled pork, I actually do more barbecue than grilling. That shitty woodshed you can kind of see is full of hardwood- mostly hickory but also some apple. A lot of guys (especially traeger guys) tend to shit on using the Weber to barbecue, but I've been doing it for years and it's always good 👍 I've got a barrel and an old propane tank that I fantasize about turning into an offset, but I can't weld.

Niiiiiice

I’ll give it 3 years max, then you have to redo it.

bizzle@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 174d (1 reply)

I spent like $40 on the handful of stuff I didn't salvage so that's pretty good

zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 0 pts · 174d

Been there, done that.

In 3 years you realize you have done more damage, which not only costs you more to do it properly, but also makes you realize you wasted those $40.

If you want to save money, buy and make things for life. Everything else is just a boomerang with extra costs.

Well it's really a matter of perspective. If you're a ground nesting bee, for instance, you think it kicks ass.
