To my surprise this grill gazebo which I designed for my own use has proved to be one of the most visited areas on the site. Not a month goes by where I don’t get contacted with questions about the grill gazebo. This section has a photo album with photos of the construction. There are also some links to some blog entries I’ve written about the planning and use of the grill gazebo.

QUE CALENDARS


In 2007 I did an experiment in making a picture calendar of the years grilled and smoked highlights. I figured it would have an audience of 1 (me). Instead it has actually become popular among some friends and relatives and also makes a good Christmas stocking stuffer.
