A garden gazebo is a functional and aesthetic element of a summer cottage, which, if properly executed, will become a cozy place for receiving guests and holding tea parties in the warm season. The small size and variety of architectural forms make it possible to harmoniously fit barbecue stoves for a gazebo or summer kitchen into a country house ensemble of any style.

A well-chosen and well-designed stove will turn the gazebo into a space equipped for picnics. The original design of the structure will give the space a unique flavor.
Functional features of the oven
The design of the stove installed in the gazebo depends on the culinary preferences of the owners, as well as the intended method of its use. For example, a small brick stove can easily turn a gazebo into a summer kitchen. A room with many windows will be well ventilated, which will eliminate the abundance of stagnant odors that arise in ordinary kitchens after intensive cooking.
The main difference between a gazebo stove and a conventional home unit is its resistance to strong temperature changes. As a rule, buildings on a summer cottage are equipped with stationary installations, which must withstand harsh winters with abundant rainfall.

The work area of a stationary oven must maintain a stable temperature throughout the entire cooking cycle. The requirement is especially relevant for modifications equipped with smokehouses, since the suddenly falling acidic condensate that forms in such a cabinet noticeably spoils the taste of food.
Fans of cooking complex dishes over coals and open fires prefer to equip gazebos with full-fledged culinary complexes. This solution requires an investment of money, but allows you to use the gazebo as a professional kitchen in the summer.

Subtleties of technology
You cannot build such a stove in city apartments. After all, this project requires:
- large free area;
- possibility of installing a chimney.
Accordingly, we are not talking about mass construction.
A stationary barbecue is a device that clearly gravitates towards rural spaces. Such a country attribute with some status flavor.
Now we will report on the general points of all projects.
Types of stoves for gazebos
Various stationary and portable structures allow you to equip the gazebo with everything necessary for connoisseurs of culinary delights.

Stove-grill
The traditional option for equipping a small gazebo is a portable grill that holds the required number of skewers. A more aesthetic and durable option is a stationary barbecue oven built from brick. This design is based on a coal container and metal stops on which skewers are installed. The construction of a standard barbecue with a high chimney also allows you to build in a smokehouse, turning the spacious gazebo into a full-fledged kitchen for preparations and culinary experiments.

BBQ oven
The appearance of the functional part of a barbecue oven for a gazebo is almost indistinguishable from a barbecue, but the process of frying meat is carried out on metal grates, not skewers. This technology allows you to cook large pieces of meat or fish, complementing the dishes with generous portions of spices and sauces. A barbecue oven is more convenient to use than a grill, but regular cleaning of the grill will add more work to the housewife. Traditional portable stoves are round in shape and placed in the center of the gazebo, with a hanging hood to keep the coals smoldering. It is convenient to equip stationary structures with a sink and a work area for constant food preparation.

Russian stove
A full-fledged Russian stove is a complex design, the correct operation of which requires adherence to assembly technology and an impressive area. Therefore, for installation in gazebos, mini-versions are used, which are a miniature version with a short hearth (the space located under the firebox with wood and coal). Structurally, a similar Russian stove is a stylized grill or barbecue, and the semicircular arch of the firebox gives the entire gazebo a touch of a traditional Russian house.

We trust professionals
Given the complex design of many stoves for garden gazebos, their manufacture should be entrusted to professionals. Often, in addition to devices for preparing dinner or lunch, the barbecue stove in the gazebo is equipped with additional work surfaces and sinks. Some modifications provide for the arrangement of an entire dining group. The dimensions and configuration of the garden gazebo determine the choice of material for the construction and finishing of the stove.
In most cases, combined materials are used to build gazebos with stoves - wood, brick and stone, metal profiles and waste materials. In any case, a properly selected gazebo with a fireplace, barbecue oven and barbecue, the projects of which are presented with us, will decorate a family feast with tasty and healthy food.
How to choose the optimal type of stove for a gazebo
Installation of any of the structures considered requires strict adherence to construction technologies, selection of optimal building materials, as well as the services of qualified stove makers.
First of all, you should decide whether to buy a ready-made structure or build a stove using the efforts of professional stove makers. The first option is economical; if desired, such a structure can be moved to an insulated room for the winter.
However, most ready-made ovens belong to the economy class, so the quality of baked dishes leaves much to be desired.
The second option provides good taste, and the master will also be able to take into account all the nuances when creating the oven. But you will have to pay for quality and exclusivity - you must be prepared for the fact that the construction of any of the selected modifications of the stove will require financial investments.

The type of stove installed depends on the culinary preferences of the owners and the amount of free space for construction. For example, lovers of oriental cuisine will be able to opt for a culinary complex with a cauldron, while connoisseurs of quiet family evenings will be content with a fireplace for a gazebo or in the house.
For avid gourmets and those who like to cook for a large group, oven complexes equipped with a full sink and work surface are suitable. Such structures are not cheap and require laying a massive foundation, but the taste properties of the prepared food will more than repay the costs incurred.
Pipe
It is not advisable to connect any furnaces to one pipe. This is realistic from a technical point of view. But it is fraught with the impossibility of simultaneous operation of all fireboxes united by a common chimney. This is critical for the heating system.
In a garden oven - acceptable. True, you will have to put up with the fact that even with an abundance of functions, you will not be able to use them at the same time. You'll have to choose one thing.
For this reason, most barbecues are equipped with separate chimneys. They just try to arrange them into one block - this makes it easier to remove them through the roof.
The main stages of manufacturing a stove for a gazebo
Before building a stove complex for a gazebo, projects of which are widely presented on the Internet, it is recommended to choose experienced specialists. In addition, to create a furnace you will need refractory bricks, a foundation, metal structures for the chimney, firebox and finishing of the adjacent surface. The elements are connected with heat-resistant glue, the outer surface is finished with varnish.

Construction of the furnace
The first stage is preparing the foundation on the selected site. The more massive and functional the future installation, the more reliable this design should be. Builders dig a pit up to half a meter deep, in which a reinforced concrete foundation is installed. The entire structure is located 1 cm below the floor level of the gazebo and 5 cm larger than the dimensions of the stove base in all dimensions.
The waterproofing material is laid directly on the foundation, and sheets of roofing felt - a dense material for finishing the roof - are often used.
Refractory bricks (a similar type is called “fireclay brick”) are laid on the foundation, fastening the elements with a mortar of clay, sand and cement.
2 grates are placed between the walls: the lower one will be used for coals, and the upper one will be used for arranging products. A coal tray made of sheet metal is mounted just below the grate level, the optimal height of which is 15 cm.

Installation of the stove at the same time as the gazebo itself involves the construction of a hood and chimney before installing the roof of the building. Otherwise, builders will have to “cut through” the roof, which will take time and cost owners extra money. Some designs, for example, barbecues for a gazebo with a chimney, can be purchased ready-made or constructed from sheet metal.
Decoration of the cutting table
Most modern gazebo stoves are equipped with a cutting table that is designed directly to the right of the firebox. When designing a full-fledged culinary complex, the rule of the “working triangle” is used, which facilitates the path of the owners from the place of storing raw food to serving the finished dish for guests. In general, the cutting table has no different characteristics from the kitchen work surface. For the countertops, coverings made of wood, metal, artificial stone and chipboard are used. The best option is tiles or porcelain stoneware, which are resistant to temperature changes and very easy to clean.

Projects for the construction of certain types of stoves are widely presented in architectural bureaus, and are also available from professional stove makers. It must be emphasized that the construction of a culinary complex in a gazebo is a labor-intensive process that requires the well-coordinated work of several professionals, high-quality materials and regular maintenance. Therefore, it makes sense to build such a spectacular and expensive structure for constant intensive use. Owners of a “weekend cottage” will save effort and money if they opt for a more affordable modification, for example, a barbecue oven.
Finishing work
The finished installation can be covered with a layer of decorative plaster, as well as tiled with tiles, decorative bricks or tiles.
The area in front of the firebox is finished with metal, porcelain stoneware or other material that is resistant to the effects of hot coals and ash falling from the stove.

Metal chimneys are coated with heat-resistant paints of various colors.
Most often, brickwork in modern houses is left unfinished in order to emphasize the “natural” aesthetics of the material.
DIY construction
This issue was discussed in as much detail as possible in the article DIY fireplace. In this publication, I tried to select as many photographs of finished options as possible, and transferred the construction process itself to another article.
It seems to me that most people who are considering installing a fireplace in their gazebo will not do the construction themselves and would rather just give the money to the craftsmen.
However, even among ordinary summer residents there are people who are ready to take this issue seriously. If you have your own opinion regarding building on your own, then feel free to leave a comment either on this or on the publication that describes the construction process.
This topic is quite non-trivial and has many points of view.
Tips for those who want to equip a stove for a summerhouse
Those who like seasonal living in a country house and entertaining guests outdoors in warm weather should opt for small portable stoves. Such structures are affordable, do not require labor-intensive installation, and are also easily transported to warm sheds for the winter.
Owners of country houses for permanent residence and those who like to receive guests will appreciate the capabilities of a full-fledged culinary complex. The installation of such a structure should be coordinated with professionals, and the gazebo itself should be built around it.

A built-in sink, a massive grill grate or a grill section will help the housewife save time on cleaning and cooking.
The architectural solution is limited only by the imagination of the owners: for example, owners of small plots can easily install a corner stove in a gazebo of the most elegant sizes.
Rain protection
There must be a roof over a brick oven. The main enemy of any oven is moisture and cold. Water (wet masonry and frosty precipitation) expands when it freezes. Therefore, at sub-zero temperatures it can tear not only masonry seams, but also destroy the brick itself.
Of course, adding cement to the traditional clay-sand mortar helps to partially reduce the negative. But this is protection from the moisture contained in the water. There is no way to isolate yourself from rain or wet snow in this way.
You will need a roof or some kind of canopy integrated into the design of the stove, or a separate gazebo. A gazebo is preferable because it can serve as:
- cozy dining room;
- living room;
- or a summer kitchen, at least.
It's up to you to decide.
Safety rules for using a brick grill
Since a brick grill oven is an object of increased fire hazard, certain rules should be followed when operating it.
- gasoline or kerosene when lighting . Well-dried firewood will burn well even without flammable liquids. If firewood does not burn well, it is recommended to use special mixtures.
- Ignition compounds are not intended for impregnation of firewood; they can only be used to spray surfaces.
- There should be no dry grass in the immediate vicinity of the food preparation area .
- When preparing food, you must use special tools , long-handled tongs, and a poker.

Where and how to place a brick grill
As a rule, the question of where to set up a barbecue area is decided by the owner of the site. However, you should be guided not only by your desire, but also by a whole set of rules that must be followed when placing objects with open fire.
- There should be no fruit or ornamental bushes , trees, hanging branches, or wires near the site for building a brick barbecue
- The location of structures must : house, barn, garage, bathhouse. They should not be in close proximity to the intended resting place.
- Along with the previous point, you should place the outdoor oven not too far from the kitchen , since you will have to go shopping for food or utensils often.
- It is advisable to take into account the direction of prevailing winds in the area so that smoke and sparks cannot reach neighbors or potentially fire hazardous areas.
- You should avoid placing a barbecue stove near a children's playground , sports complex, or swimming pool.
