From the Ashes, A Grill

Craig has repaired our gas grill! व्हिले I love the flavor from charcoal, it's nice to be able to grill a quick chicken breast without waiting 20 minutes for coals। Here's his description:

Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, my grill is back! I replaced the heat shield, ceramic coals, handle, and re-attached the front panel. The project cost me around $50 - which is hundreds less than buying a new grill! My grill turns 8-years old this Father's Day. Hopefully I'll get another 8-years out of it now. All I need is propane, which we'll be buying tomorrow. ....and it could use a bath. I drilled two holes in the front panel and used tie-wraps to reattached it to the grill frame. Added a new heat shield and ceramic coals. My dad made the handle for me.


The old heat shield, or what was left of it.

Ugh, my old BBQ was banned at my new apartment complex. No charcoal rules; something about causing fires, etc. etc.
I need to get a hibachi now or something (too po' for a real grill.)

I could not live without my grill. Summers spell B-B-Q!
