Gazebo with barbecue: simple projects and 120 photos of design examples in landscape design

If it is customary to trust the preparation of meat on the grill to a man, then there is nothing wrong with leaving the choice of the grill to a woman. And you can be sure that she will choose a design that fully corresponds to the concept of relaxation, comfort, and aesthetics. In other words, she will choose the most beautiful grill - and she will be completely right.

Durability, functionality, dimensions and installation methods - these and similar issues should be considered in addition to the main criterion - beauty. Let's look at the most unusual options in terms of design, but in close connection with the technical design, practicality and safety of numerous barbecue designs.

It's rare to meet a person who doesn't like barbecue Source wallpaperup.com

Types of gazebos

A gazebo with a barbecue should not only harmonize with the landscape of your garden, but also meet the basic requirements for its functions. You should immediately decide on a design - professionals or the most common online programs for creating photo collages will help you with this (suitable photos of gazebos with barbecues can be found on the Internet).

Open gazebos are considered seasonal, because they simply do not have walls. The fire should not be exposed to precipitation, so it is usually placed in a stove or protected with stone and metal decorative elements.

In such a gazebo there can be a dining area, a mini-bar or even a hammock - its space is not limited in any way.

Closed gazebos require the creation of an internal design. This is a separate, large-scale and large-sized building, where, in addition to the barbecue, tables, sofas, a TV and anything you want can fit, because it is clear that you will spend enough time in such a structure - it should be as comfortable as possible for a large company and privacy.

Semi-closed gazebos are considered the best demi-season option. Typically, they use lightweight metal structures and sliding doors/folding panels, the fire can be located under a canopy, and the “building” itself is often heated.

In summer you can use the building as a place for barbecues and family recreation, and in the cold autumn you can spend evenings in a warm gazebo with a stove.

Material Variations

Many people hesitate when faced with the need to choose a material. Stone, wood or brick? We will analyze the main advantages of each of them.

Wood is the main one among competing materials. This is mainly due to its affordable price, but there are other advantages.

A wooden structure requires a small foundation, as it is very light compared to other options, so it can be installed at a lower cost. The barbecues in such gazebos are surrounded by fences to prevent fires.

Stone, unlike wood, has an incomparable advantage - fire resistance, so you can even use an open fire or build a gazebo with a barbecue.

Metal gazebos look more elegant than roomy and reliable, but often bulky brick ones, and even more so summer wooden ones, which quickly lose their original appearance.

Forged products are ordered in advance, but at the same time they are among the more durable, since the metals are coated with special solutions so that they are less likely to oxidize and deteriorate.

Options for barbecue designs

In its classic form, the barbecue is a rectangular metal or stone “box”, in which air access to the combustion zone is ensured by small holes in the lower part of the long walls.

This design is focused on the use of firewood, which is burned to the state of charcoal at the beginning of cooking. Of course, this is not a grate-type furnace with a blower, but even here quite a lot of air enters the combustion zone. Then, when the wood burns down to the state of charcoal, the “short” flame phase with top combustion begins, since the holes are not located along the bottom, but at some distance from it.

Now many manufacturers produce models that can perform the functions of a grill and barbecue.

But they are focused on using ready-made charcoal. These designs do not have holes in the walls of the fryer, but have a grate located at some distance from the bottom. Charcoal is lit on this grate, and if we use the terms of solid fuel boilers, then this is a type of stove with top combustion, and it is longer and “uniform” in time.

These models may include:

• skewers (barbecue option);
• second, upper grill (barbecue option);
• lid (grill option).

And in a complete set, with the lid on, the universal grill can be shaped like a sphere or a cylinder.

Note. Universal hemispherical roasters are better suited for barbecuing. They have zones of different heat intensity: in the center - maximum, at the edges - minimum. This is good for frying a piece of meat on a grill, but bad for cooking on a skewer - the outer pieces of meat will be cooked less than in the middle.

Useful tips

We'll give you some useful tips to help make your gazebo even more comfortable and ensure a truly relaxed country holiday.

• Take care of the convenient location of the woodpile: it should be located within reach;
• Treat all wooden elements with a fire retardant;
• The convenient location of the gazebo plays an important role - it’s good if it is next to the house or on a small hill with a beautiful view;
• Use your imagination when choosing decorative elements and decorating the building - this is a chance to feel like a real designer;
• Use the space rationally: the food preparation area should occupy a minimum of space, it is better to increase the seating area;
• Some gazebos may be equipped with running water or a toilet. You can also drill a well or dig a well next to the building;
• If in addition to the grill there is a barbecue, smokehouse, oven or roaster in the gazebo, place them nearby - it is important to zone the room.

Conclusion

All the above options for chimney structures are working. If you are going to make them yourself, I recommend paying special attention to the little things that were discussed. If you have any questions, write in the comments, I will try to help.

Installation of beautiful decorative fireplaces for the home

Before you start building your brainchild, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with its structure.

So, the fireplace consists of:

• A firebox made of fireclay. This is where a miracle happens—fuel combustion.
• The portal is located outside the firebox and creates a decorative load.
• The grate, which is located under the firebox and helps the combustion process occur, supplies air from below to support the fire.
• An ash pan is a metal compartment that serves as a collection point for ash.
• The area in front of the firebox prevents sparks from the fire from falling onto the floor in front of the fireplace, and also serves as a decorative element.
• Hailo is the first source of smoke in front of the chimney.
• Gate valve for regulating air supply.

Floor and roof

The covering is attached to the logs installed at the previous stage. The boards can be covered with any suitable material. The main thing is to ensure timely drainage of rainwater. A small gap will be enough.

The roof is covered with metal tiles. It is often replaced with plywood treated with moisture-resistant compounds. This part of the gazebo should have a slope that allows snow to melt away. A gable roof is the most successful solution to this problem.

DIY assembly

To ensure that the final result fully meets all your wishes, we recommend that you first read and follow the following step-by-step guide:

1. We decide on the location of the structure and prepare the foundation. We dig a hole about 40 centimeters deep. We lay crushed stone and gravel and fill it with water. We place the formwork part, pour concrete and let the foundation dry completely;
2. For solid fuel structures, a solution is needed that will withstand high temperatures well. The quality composition should be based on clay;
3. To check the evenness of the structure, a building level is used. Next, we proceed to assembling the skeleton of the gazebo. It is important that all walls and ceilings are strong enough, stable and level;
4. Next, we join the roof and the pipe together. Also, do not rush to install doors and windows. Allow the gazebo with fireplace to get the necessary natural shrinkage;
5. We install windows and doors, if required. Afterwards we proceed to finishing and cladding the gazebo inside and out. The fireplace insert and portal should also be lined. However, you don’t have to do this, since the brick surface has an attractive and finished appearance.

At the last stage, you will need to arrange the interior space. To do this, equip the gazebo with a table, chairs, armchairs, a sofa, a hammock, countertops, shelves and other furniture.

Now we move on to decorating the garden itself and the space located on the outside of the gazebo with a fireplace. You can decorate the landscape near the veranda with grass, ornamental plants, bushes, trees and flowers. You can illuminate the area using several flashlights.

The fireplace in the gazebo can be decorated with a firewood rack, a poker, or a broom. Place a painting, a figurine, a lamp, a candlestick, a frame table near the hearth, and lay a rug or fur near the firebox.

A gazebo with a fireplace requires time and money, which are necessary to build a high-quality, durable and functional building. If you do not have experience in the construction of such complex structures, it is better to spend more, but use the services of an experienced craftsman.

A do-it-yourself gazebo with a fireplace, stove and sink made of brick is presented and described in detail in this video clip:

Walling

If you lack experience, it is recommended to use the developed diagrams for the construction of a barbecue. They do not carry any secrets, just to get a strong firebox with the ability to install a grate and a brazier, you need to properly tie the bricks. After laying 2-3 layers, you will have to take a short break, otherwise the weight of the entire fireplace will fall on the bottom layer of the mortar that has not yet hardened.

The process of laying an outdoor fireplace

So, after the foundation has completely hardened, you can begin laying the barbecue.

• The structure is made of half a brick, as it is not subject to heavy loads. Complex fireplaces are already being built in brick. Strength will be created by the staggered laying method. It involves shifting all the bricks by half a brick cyclically.
• When forming one row, before moving on to the next, do not forget to insert fastening elements for shelves and grids. For this purpose, metal products or bricks are used, laid perpendicular to the row and forming protrusions inside the firebox. If this nuance is overlooked, you will have to dismantle the entire grill.
• The fryer is mounted on the completed fasteners. It must have holes through which the air necessary for combustion will flow.

Steak grill

The considered variant of the firebox structure is the simplest and can be complicated by closed structures. But you should not start your first independent work with complex options, because the complication leaves a certain imprint on almost all parameters: the formation of a row, jumpers, the number of rows, etc.

We lay the walls

Laying a stove with a barbecue or barbecue with your own hands must comply with certain rules:

• the firebox must be laid from heat-resistant materials that can operate normally at elevated temperatures;
• the construction of the device body can be carried out using ordinary materials;
• under the stove body you need to build a strong and level base from several rows of bricks. The evenness of the podium should be checked using a building level;
• the walls must be laid with ligation of the seams;

Arranging a classic outdoor fireplace

• during the construction of the walls, it is necessary to install grates that will supply the outdoor fireplace with the necessary amount of air;
• fasten the stove door to the masonry using welded embedded parts;
• starting from the sixth row of masonry, build a base for the combustion chamber. Lay the brick crosswise so that a small part of it protrudes. This is useful for attaching barbecue nets or if using a grill;
• The wall thickness depends on the dimensions of the stove and ranges from 120 mm to 250 mm.

Why do you need an exhaust hood?

An exhaust hood for a barbecue serves as a ventilation system.
Like the corresponding device in the kitchen, it is designed to:

• eliminate combustion products;
• dispel unpleasant odors;

• remove smoke;
• prevent grease and soot from settling on surrounding objects.

These qualities are very important when frying fish, seafood and meat, since aromas quickly spread through the air into the house, cars, and neighbors in the area.

Often such a device is installed in catering establishments, in holiday houses, gazebos, where barbecues are located under the roof of the building.

Outdoors, an exhaust hood also protects dishes and the grill itself from dirt, dust and precipitation during storage.

Manufacturing principles

Metal chimneys for barbecues are made of stainless steel sheets with an anti-corrosion coating of at least 2 mm. The collector, pipe and canopy elements are cut out directly on the sheet, then cut out and bent into the required shapes. The seams are secured with rivets, welding and snaps.

A brick umbrella requires the preliminary manufacture of a steel frame. It is recommended to weld it from iron corners. They are also additionally primed and painted with anti-corrosion paint. Next, the body is lined with heat-resistant bricks (fireclay or stove) using a fixing solution.

Expert opinion

Alexey Gavrilov

BBQ kitchen and equipment specialist

In any case, it is important to file down the protruding seams. With bricks, they can distort the masonry, leave holes, and if used independently, they risk injuring a person during washing.

On street umbrellas, additional slopes are made on the back side to drain water. A roofing material with heat-resistant properties is well suited for this function.

BBQ area

There are several types of barbecue. Collapsible structures are used by people who do not like to sit still. It will come in handy while relaxing away from home.

A brazier made from thin steel sheets does not hold the desired temperature long enough.

Cast iron grills are popular among gourmets. Thanks to optimally selected dimensions (depth, wall thickness), the meat will not dry out. The only drawback of cast iron construction is its rather high cost.

The tabletop barbecue does not take up much space. The grate is heated by gas. There are no problems with cooking meat and other dishes.

If a large number of guests are planned, such a unit will not be enough. When purchasing a compact barbecue, you should pay attention to its compatibility with gas equipment.

An ideal option for a summerhouse is a stone stove. It can be installed inside or next to a structure. The foundation can be a columnar or strip foundation. The stove holds heat well and lasts a long time. It is small in size and easy to manufacture.

The list can be supplemented with a cast iron fryer and a mini barbecue oven. When installing any of the above barbecues, they are guided by safety standards. Prepared coals and firewood are usually used as fuel.

Recommendations from experts

The following tips will help improve the quality of the design and the aesthetics of its appearance:

• round the sides of the stove - this will make it look more attractive;
• lay the ash pit made of bricks, with the edges cut at an angle (45°) - the ash will crumble freely during operation;
• to shrink the bricks, use a rubber hammer - this is effective and does not damage the material;
• install doors so that you can open them with your left hand (for left-handed people with your right hand);
• When installing stove fittings, use a level;
• For a firebox made of fireclay bricks, lay them on edge - the space will be used efficiently and food will cook faster;
• Fireclay bricks and ceramics should not come into contact - be sure to lay basalt cardboard between them.

To set up a barbecue with a brick stove, you will have to spend a lot of time and effort, but the result will pay for it all many times over. A well-organized design will last a long time, and it can be used to prepare a variety of dishes.

How to build?

Before starting construction and installation work, it is necessary to develop a high-quality order, which will mark the shape and all dimensions of the structure, as well as its location in your garden. You should also decide in advance on the materials that will be used to assemble the stove and its cladding along with the gazebo. Since the entire structure has a lot of weight, it is placed only on a pre-assembled foundation. It is most convenient to use and clean the fireplace stove, which will be located in the center of the veranda.

Next, you need to decide what functionality the heating equipment will have. This could be a stove, barbecue, barbecue, grill, oven, fireplace, hob or cold/hot smoker.

If you want and have the opportunity to assemble a multifunctional heating unit, think in advance where exactly this or that element will be located. For example, the height of grills, barbecues and barbecues is about 600-800 millimeters from the floor. The stove is installed lower by 100-150 millimeters. For the convenience of preparing food, you need to take care in advance about where various kitchen utensils and cutlery will be placed.

Design features

A barbecue hood is called an umbrella because of its external similarity. Like an umbrella over a person's head, it covers the top of the brazier. In this case, the shape of the dome may resemble a truncated pyramid or cone.

Pyramid hood

Pyramid hood

A pipe is connected to it. But there may not be a leg, depending on the location and shape of the attachment. No complex components or mechanisms.

The operating principle is simple:

1. The smoke heats up to a temperature where it becomes lighter than air.
2. The natural draft force is activated and the smoke rushes upward.
3. The dome limits the space for smoke to spread to the sides.
4. Volatile compounds enter pointwise into the narrow section of the chimney.
5. The smoke rises through the chimney and is then freely dispersed by the air.

As a rule, it is enough to place the chimney for the barbecue at a height of 3 m from the ground . At such a distance, the wind does not lower what is picked up. In addition, it is taller than a person, so fumes and smoke a priori do not get into the eyes and nose.

For round grills and barbecues, use conical umbrellas. For square and rectangular shapes, a pyramid is more convenient.

At the very top, 10-20 cm from the pipe, a small canopy plate (straight or curved) is placed. It covers the hole from rain, but does not prevent smoke from escaping.

Preparation of the solution

The main components of the masonry mixture are clay and sand. The recommended proportion is two parts sand to one part clay. The day before mixing the solution, the clay is soaked in water.

An important feature of clay is that the fatter it is, the greater the sand consumption.

If the consistency is correct, the solution will slide off the trowel, leaving a small mark on it. If it falls off without any traces, then a lot of sand has been added; on the contrary, it smears a lot - there is an excess of clay in the mixture.

For laying the main parts, cement is not added to the mixture due to low heat resistance. But it is permissible to cover the grill with facing material using cement mortar.

Brick selection

Expensive, but the most suitable for masonry is clinker, another name is refractory brick. The main raw material is special clay, which is fired at high temperature.

Comes in different colors:

• red;
• sandy;
• dark brown;
• red with tan marks.

Clinker bricks differ from inexpensive ceramic bricks in their high strength and long service life. It is resistant to moisture and frost.

The good thing about clinker is that the finished structure turns out beautiful and does not require additional cladding.

It is allowed to use cheaper ceramic, red fireclay bricks. Feature article: “Brick for masonry stoves.”

It is important to take into account that silicate (white) brick is not suitable for creating a barbecue at home, because it begins to quickly deteriorate under the influence of moisture, temperature changes, and cannot withstand high temperatures.

Construction design

The basis for the success of any event is competent planning, the correct choice of building materials and strict adherence to technology and safety measures during work. Initially, you need to decide on the place where the stove will be installed. After this, you should draw up diagrams and drawings of each element of the barbecue.

The paper displays information regarding the following structures:

• foundation;
• the order of each fragment;
• fireplace;
• frying oven;
• chimney;
• roof.

If it is planned to create a universal frying complex, then an oven, a smokehouse and a hob with a hole for a cauldron are additionally developed. A washstand, sink and cutting tables are provided.

Based on the data obtained, construction materials are calculated. They are purchased with a small margin of 10-15% to cover errors in calculations, defects and damage during transportation.
