BBQ at the summer cottage will allow you to cook delicious food right on outdoors... The owner gets the opportunity to arrange picnics, parties and other events on their own site, surprising friends with their invention. Arranging an outdoor stove is not the easiest thing.

Preliminary work

First of all, drawings should be made. Thanks to such drawings, the master will not only correctly build the structure itself, but also pre-calculate the amount of required building materials.

The drawing will have to be done independently, because there is no universal barbecue design.

There are only general guidelines that can be followed during construction. So, the grill itself should not be lower than 65-70 cm in height. At the same time, it should be convenient for the person who will work on it. The oven is usually placed 10 cm below the grill itself. In general, the oven is manufactured based on specific conditions. When designing, it is necessary to take into account every little thing so that later there will be no inconveniences when using the device. For example, you need to calculate in advance where the tweezers will hang, and where you can put firewood and coal. The planning also takes into account the growth of the host.

When the drawing is ready, you need to write a list necessary materials... Do not forget about the materials for the foundation.

Seat selection

1. The choice of a place for a barbecue is made according to one main criterion - fire safety.
2. There should be no trees or dry bushes near the stove.
3. The stove should be located away from the main buildings (bathhouse, house, extension).
4. When building a barbecue, take into account the main direction of the wind. It should not blow towards buildings. In addition, it must be borne in mind that sparks can be attributed to neighbors.
5. Should not be erected next to a playground, gazebo, greenhouses.

Always remember the fire safety requirements.

When the right place is found, you can start laying the foundation.

Foundation

An inexpensive and easy-to-use monolithic strip foundation is perfect for the structure. It is not necessary to deeply deepen it.

1. A trench about 40 cm deep is being dug along the perimeter of the future structure.
2. A mixture of crushed stone and gravel must be poured at the bottom of the trench. The bottom is thoroughly watered and rammed.
3. Reinforcing bars are laid on top of gravel and crushed stone. They should be folded to form a grid.
4. It remains only to make the formwork and fill the trench with concrete. For the foundation, use 300 grade cement.

Brick selection

To build a barbecue, you will need two types of bricks: refractory and facing.

Of all types of refractory bricks, fireclay bricks are the best option. He goes to the construction of ovens. There is a lot of clay in such a brick, and it perfectly withstands high temperatures. When choosing a facing brick, one should pay attention to the strength properties of the material.

In addition to bricks, mortars are needed for construction. To do this, you need to buy red clay, sand and cement. Clay is required for laying fireclay bricks. You need to make a clay solution from it. Cement with sand will be used for facing mortar.

1. Clay mortar requires red clay, sand, cement and water.
2. The clay should be poured with some water and left for about 5-6 days.
3. After that, you need to mix the clay with water until smooth.
4. Further, a little sifted sand and quite a bit of grade 200 cement are added to the composition.
5. All ingredients should be mixed. The solution is ready.

Step-by-step instruction

Work order:

1. Layout of the pedestal.
2. Furnace arrangement.
3. Pipe laying.
4. Final work.

Pedestal

The barbecue pedestal should ideally have a woodpile. The amount of firewood in it is for 3 fireboxes. The work uses a conventional facing brick. The height of the structure is about 70 cm, however, the master can use his own dimensions.

Firebox and stove

When the pedestal is completed, you can proceed to the stove. It should be about 6 bricks wide, and about 3 deep in depth. There is nothing particularly complicated in laying out the stove, you just need to remember that there will be one more facing on top of the fireclay masonry.

Fireclay bricks are laid in two rows. In places of overlap, it is better to use reinforcing bars. The barbecue order is calculated in advance, at the drawing stage.

Pipe

The chimney is laid out of fireclay bricks and clay mortar. A tooth is made behind the stove to improve traction. A valve is placed inside the pipe.

Final work

At the stage of final work, decorative finishing B-B-Q.

Barbecue is very often confused with barbecue or grill. In fact, delicious food can be made in any of the above devices. However, all three designs work differently.

The brazier is the simplest of these devices. It was seen by everyone who at least once in his life has ever tried barbecue. It is the kebabs that are most often prepared on the grill. For those who have no desire to bother with construction, buying a barbecue will be the solution to many problems. It is inexpensive, easy to transport to various locations and does not take up much space.

The grill today is used primarily in the electric version. This is a device in which the product rotates on a spit.

In the barbecue, you can smoke and dry a variety of foods. It can be used to boil, steam, and even bake. It's just that most people are not interested in all the functions of the device and are limited to the most common ones.

Precautions

When working with a barbecue, you must follow safety rules.

The security measures are as follows:

1. You should not light a fire with kerosene or gasoline, there are special means for this.
2. When using ignition products, it is not necessary to saturate firewood or coals with them. Such compositions are used for spraying firewood.
3. Remember that good fuel is delicious food. Therefore, use approved materials for kindling. Connoisseurs use birch wood and charcoal to make food nutritious and flavorful. Using the wrong kindling materials can even lead to poisoning.

If you decide to buy a barbecue grill, it is best to do it online, as the prices are much cheaper. For garden barbecues, wrought iron barbecues are best suited.

Schemes

Many Vacation home associated with barbecuing or barbecuing. And a brazier is considered a necessary element of this process. And cooking meat dishes will be doubly pleasant if the brazier for them is made by hand.

A brazier at a summer cottage is a guarantee of a successful rest with a barbecue. For this reason, most summer residents want such a device for cooking on their territory. Some people prefer the option from the store, but made on their own always arouses pride in the owner of a country estate.

A shashlik smokehouse performs several functions at the same time:

• used to decorate the landscape;
• is considered an important helper when you need to feed many people at the same time, since a homemade invention has a larger surface than a purchased version.

Besides being a grill handmade performs important functions, it is characterized by: durability, less whimsical weather conditions and an individual appearance.

In order to build such a device, a couple of skillful hands and materials are enough. Even someone who has no experience in this matter can cope with this task. On the Internet, you can find many training videos that describe in detail each stage of production. In addition, there are many ready-made drawings, according to which you can build a high-quality brazier yourself.

Blueprints

If you do not study the drawings for building a barbecue from bricks, then the process of building it will be more problematic and complex. All the parameters of the future product are described in detail on the finished diagrams:

• height;
• width;
• the total area that it will occupy.

For beginners, building a brazier according to drawings is much easier, since they show all the elements it contains.

There are cases when people want to build a summer complex, which will include a grill. They consist of a worktop, storage space for firewood, a firebox and other elements that can be useful when preparing food.

If the master already has experience in this matter, then he can independently develop a drawing based on existing ones. In this case, the scheme will be unique. It will become the decoration of a summer cottage or a suburban complex.

But there are general instructions which must be adhered to in order to get a quality product as a result. The step-by-step instructions are useful because they help you build the workflow correctly. In this matter, it is very important to do everything one by one and on time.

Step-by-step instruction

At the first preparatory stage, the most important point is the choice of a place where the brazier will stand for cooking kebabs. It is necessary that the place is chosen correctly and does not interfere with others. To do this, it is recommended to heed the following tips:

• It is worth remembering that the structure is an object with an increased fire hazard. For this reason, it is better to place the grill away from home, outbuildings and other objects that can catch fire easily.
• The brazier should not be located far from the resting place, as this can cause some inconvenience. Ideally, it would be to put the barbecue near the gazebo where the holidays are held, or near the summer kitchen. To create more comfortable conditions, you can build a wide canopy that will simultaneously cover the brick from the rain, and at the same time, the benches and table will also be protected.

• It is recommended to equip the site, which was intended exclusively for the barbecue and all auxiliary equipment. It is not recommended that there are flower beds or beds next to this zone. High temperatures can cause all plants to disappear. You should think about how it is convenient to approach this area, namely, make paths to it.
• Trash cans and a toilet area should not be placed next to the brazier, as this will not look aesthetically pleasing.

The next stage is to select the material from which the barbecue brazier will actually be built. In our case, this is a brick. It is best that it is heat-resistant and does not collapse. This material is fireclay brick. It is also known as "stove".

In order for the structure to be strong, the masonry mortar must be made of clay and sand.

Advice

In order for the structure to be used for several decades, it is worth choosing a high-quality brick. It is this material that constitutes its basis. In the case of high-quality material, it will be possible to cook barbecue on a brazier for many years.

In order for the outdoor grill to be strong, you should pay attention to its foundation. That is, you need to prepare Construction Materials for its construction.

The following materials will be required for the foundation :

• Crushed stone.
• Stones.
• Cement.
• Plywood or boards (for formwork).
• Sand.
• Armature.

Also, you need to purchase tools that will be needed during the construction period.

These include the following instances:

• Bucket.
• Shovel.
• Trough for mixing cement (you can use a concrete mixer).
• Master OK.
• Circular saw.
• Level.

It is recommended to develop a project for the construction of a barbecue. You can take a project that has already been developed by someone. In this case, the work will be easier. And also, it will help to calculate the right amount materials. A small stock is acceptable, but a large surplus is not profitable and unnecessary.

At the next stage, the foundation is poured.... This stage is considered basic, since the further construction depends on the foundation. The foundation is required only for a stationary type of barbecue. This process is not necessary for a portable product. After the foundation has frozen and is ready for further work, brick laying is carried out.

Advice

Before you start laying bricks, it is recommended to water it with water. After 24 hours have passed, you can start the process. You can also dip it in water for a few seconds just before laying. This is done in order to better adhere to clay.

The order of laying bricks should be carried out according to a ready-made scheme. When there is a desire to independently develop a scheme, it is better to do this on a piece of paper in a box.

It is better to start laying bricks from the corner and head towards the central part. It is important to periodically check the grill with a level and a plumb line. This will allow you to detect inaccuracies and correct them in the future.

After that, you need to start laying the central part of the product, namely the firebox.

It can be already pre-cast from concrete, or you can make it from brick.

If the grill will play the role of a barbecue, then at this stage you need to decide where the grill will be installed. It is installed on the reinforcement bars that are in the walls of the product. In order to be able to change the levels of the grate, you can make several protrusions.

After that, wind walls and a smoke collector are built, which is attached to the columns and gradually decreases in diameter. Some schemes do not provide for the construction of a smoke isolation pipe.

As a result of this sequence of stages, you get the simplest grill. To protect it from precipitation, you can install a metal visor above it.

The final stage of the construction of the barbecue is finishing and a shed.

The canopy over the product should be cocked in order to prolong its operation. It can be done in two ways:

• The canopy, which is covered exclusively by the brazier itself.
• A canopy that covers the entire area that is intended for recreation.

In any case, precipitation will not fall on the brazier. In terms of design, good option there is a canopy over the barbecue.

In order to build a canopy over the entire building, you need to install special concrete foundations around the perimeter. They can be made not only from concrete, but from metal or wood.

Advice

In the case of choosing wooden supports, they must be coated with a special agent that will make them heat-resistant. Or install them at a distance of 16 cm from the product.

As for the roof, then it can be built from any material. A covering made of the same material as the roof of the house will fit into the overall composition.

Outdoor oven

An outdoor oven complements well any country cottage area or a country house. It can perform the following functions:

• Cooking.
• Drying mushrooms or fruits.
• Can be used for outdoor canning.

The design of the structure for this structure can be made to fit the interior country house... It can be done with one or more lesions. Can be done with or without doors. This is affected only by the project that was chosen for the construction of this device.

When building an outdoor stove, you need to be guided by the fact that it must meet the following requirements:

• Practicality.
• Safety.
• Functionality.
• Durability.
• Low cost of construction (if your own work is expensive, it will be more profitable to buy a ready-made version).

There is a large amount of materials for the construction of a street stove in the markets, but you need to be guided by the fact that it must be of high quality.

For this, you can use the following raw materials:

• Fire-resistant bricks and aerated concrete. These materials can withstand high temperatures.
• Metal or cast iron. Most often, finished structures are produced from this raw material. Its price will not be small.

Brick and aerated concrete - fire resistant materials

The choice of material must be approached thoughtfully. Aerated concrete is cheaper, but a brick oven looks much aesthetically pleasing.

An important question is the choice of the main location for the street oven. It's good when the construction of a street product was foreseen at the beginning construction works around the house. If, however, the decision to build this structure was made later, then you need to be guided by the same rules as the construction of the barbecue.

Such an attribute of rest is done in the following sequence:

• Foundation laying.
• Furnace base masonry.
• Chimney installation.
• Installation of the walls of the gazebo in which the oven will stand, as well as the equipment of the surrounding area.

Outdoor oven cladding

As for the decor of an outdoor stove, there are a large number of options. You can trim the product using a special decorative plaster... It can also be veneered. As a decor, you can use tiles of various designs and designs.

There are these types of simple stove finishes:

• Whitewashing and coloring.
• Plaster.

Sequencing

• To reduce the roughness of the surface, you need to wipe it with a brick, and then treat it with water.
• We treat the surface with a primer.
• We paint the structure with paint. It is better to choose it on an adhesive basis.
• In the case of whitewashing, we skip the previous stage, and instead of paint we take lime. You can add salt to it. This will help you achieve the best result. To add a blue tint, a small amount of blue is added to the lime.
• In order for the whitewash to be of high quality and last for a long time, ultramarine or ocher can be added to the lime on the surface.

The advantages of such a cladding:

• The tile surface can be easily washed and wiped clean.
• The tile covering has a high heat transfer.

Since real and correct tiles are made by hand, they may differ from each other, for example, in shape or size. Therefore, before the process of lining the furnace, it is necessary to sort the material by shape and color.

Tiles are laid using a thick solution. They are attached to wire pins. The seams between the facing material must be made no more than 2 mm. They are rubbed with a special agent, for example, an albatross.

Decorating an outdoor stove with tiles

It is better not to choose large tiles for cladding. Such material has a high risk of cracking. It is better to choose small tiles.

Facing outdoor tiles with natural stone

The process of decorating a street structure with a stone does not have noticeable differences in comparison with tiling. The advantage is that the stones look more sophisticated.

The peculiarity of such cladding is that the stones must be placed on the floor and laid out in size, shape and color.

Advice

In order not to confuse the sequence of stones, you can number them from the reverse side. This action contributes to the fact that the stones do not get mixed up with each other and the process itself takes much less time.

Also, not the entire surface of the product can be overlaid with a stone, but only a separate part, for example, corners or a firebox.

Kazan-brazier

For many, the design of a cauldron-brazier is an incomprehensible and useless thing, since you can use a portable brazier and a purchased cauldron. But still, experienced gourmet summer residents insist that this is the right thing for suburban area... A barbecue and cooking complex is a godsend for large companies who like to have outdoor picnics.

Such a structure will make it possible to simultaneously cook meat dishes, fish or vegetables on the grill, and pilaf, potatoes and other side dishes are suitable for a cauldron.

Most often, cauldrons are made of metal, the difference is the manufacturing technology.

Many people have no idea how to combine seemingly incompatible things. After all, a brazier and a cauldron are seemingly two different devices.

You can equip such a structure as follows. If the brazier has already been built, then an additional brick section must be completed for the cauldron. The same actions can be performed if the structure is made of metal.

If, however, the cauldron and the brazier will be built at the same time, then initially you need to choose such a project, which implied the construction of two sections.

In order for the cauldron to evenly warm up from all sides, it is necessary that the design includes a firebox. A cauldron is placed in it and thus food is prepared.

It is important to think over that the product is convenient and practical. The height of the structure must be matched to the height of the home owners. If it is too high, then there is a high probability of getting burned, and if, on the contrary, it is too low, then you will have to constantly bend over.

A variant of building the product is possible when the cauldron is hung from above. This option is considered easier to manufacture, since it is not difficult to build. Also, such a structure can be made with a ready-made structure. It is enough to add some details on which the cauldron will be hung.

The design of the grill-smokehouse itself is a very convenient and practical product, since in one step you can cook a barbecue and smoke meat products. To start doing it yourself, you need to pay attention to important nuances:

• The size of the structure should be selected taking into account the number of people who will need to be fed. Too small products will not be convenient, since you will have to divide the cooking process into several approaches. Too large structures are not profitable due to the fact that not all of the surface will be used.
• How the product will be built: stationary or collapsible.
• The main material for the manufacture: metal or brick.

Features of building a smokehouse

• Build it sliding from two halves.
• Make from one half. In this case, it will be folding.
• Removable.
• Pushing in.

The base of the smokehouse can be placed on metal legs, or made of brick supports. The length of the legs can be selected individually. An additional table can be built into the design of the grill-smokehouse... With this option, it will be comfortable to cook food on the device.

When building this device, you need to be prepared for the fact that it will take a lot of time and effort. But the result will be useful for many years. A well-made construction is a guarantee that the prepared dishes will always be delicious.

The whole process consists of the same steps as the previous products. The difference is that the laying of bricks is done according to different drawings.

As for the facing work, it is also required to pay a lot of attention to this. Can be used decorative brick... Now there are a large number of its types, so outwardly the device can be made as the situation requires. Also, to make the entire location of the product look aesthetically pleasing, you can overlay it with paving slabs.

In this case, it will act as an element of landscape design and will be useful for fire safety.

To prevent the entire structure from getting wet in the rain or snow, you can build a special canopy. This will make it possible to cook meals in all weather conditions. Also, in order to create a more practical and comfortable cooking zone, you can provide for the presence of different shelves, countertops and sinks. These elements can be built separately from the general construction of the grill-smokehouse.

With this decoration and arrangement, you can make a comfortable and cozy place for cooking food for family and guests.

The design is built in the same sequence as the previous attributes for frying meat. Its peculiarity is that it uses a special grid on which dishes are prepared..

The difference between such a structure is that it combines two objects for cooking: a grill and a barbecue. The brazier is a rectangular bowl with holes in the bottom. The barbecue is considered one of the most convenient and functional devices for preparing meat products and vegetables.

Such devices for cooking can be built as mobile, that is, portable, as well as stationary. Each of them has its own advantages. Portable barbecue grills are convenient because they can be placed in any convenient place. The positive quality of stationary brick structures it is believed that they are more durable and can be used for many years. Most often, they provide for the presence of dampers with which you can regulate the flow of air. The type of product must be chosen at the beginning, when preparing a general project and drawings.

Such a structure can be used in all weather conditions, since the structure provides for protection from the wind.

A properly equipped area where a barbecue is located can become a decoration of the entire interior of a country house.

Thus, the independent construction of structures for a country house will make it possible to spend time with family and friends in a cozy atmosphere. At the same time, a special sense of pride will be caused by the structures that are made by the hands of the owners of the house. Also, as an option, products can be built not only for your site, but also as a gift to your loved ones.

Reliability of information

• The product can be made exactly as you want, as it is more convenient
• The quality of the structure
• The ability to make the look unique
• Family time
• A good option for a gift

• The process takes a lot of time and effort.
• Cost
• Not everyone can do it themselves

If you are a fan of eating fried meat, you must have come up with the idea of ​​arranging a stationary brick grill. We offer instructions, following which you will fold the grill literally over the weekend, and then you can immediately test it, showing all your culinary abilities.

Cooking a place for the barbecue

So that the brickwork does not lose its neatness over the years, the grill should be located on a rigid monolithic base. For these purposes, paving slabs will be most suitable, you can also use hollow core slabs and other suitable concrete products.

We will consider a special case of arranging a concrete base for a brazier measuring 2.3x1.6 m. Conventionally, the slab is divided in half lengthwise - one half for a brazier, the other remains as a platform for a convenient approach and cooking. Note that part of the concreting can be replaced by a brick pavement.

To fill the slab, it is necessary to remove a layer of soil on the bayonet of the shovel, having previously marked the area with pegs. At the walls of the resulting pit, you need to install pieces of thin OSB about 30 cm wide and fasten the plates with kerchiefs at the corners. A 15-17 cm layer of crushed stone and sand is poured onto the bottom, the bedding is compacted and spilled with water.

The slab must be reinforced with at least one layer of mesh with an 8 mm rod and a cell of no more than 120x120 mm. The embedded element is located with a protective layer of 60 mm from each edge on the spacer plugs. The slab is poured with concrete grade B-15 or stronger, it is optimal if the slab is poured 60-70 mm above the ground level, that is, the total height of the screed is 12-15 cm.About a week is given for drying, if it is not possible to periodically wet the concrete - cover it film and slate.

Which brick? What solution?

You must know in advance the dimensions of the stone in order to correctly arrange the order. We suggest using fired clay brick (red) with dimensions LxWxH: 257x123x55 mm. Give preference to solid materials, unless you plan to cover the masonry on top with a fence stone.

It is not recommended to cover the brazier with sandstone, clinker or chopped bricks: under open air delamination and cracks are likely to appear on such a cladding. Therefore, for masonry, you should sort the brick and select stones without chips and broken corners. Please also note that partially the brick will be located at high temperatures cooking zones. Consequently, fireclay and silicate products are not suitable for this: one is due to potential toxicity, the second is due to physical and mechanical disadvantages.

To prepare the solution, one part of grade 300 cement is used for 3.5 parts of washed quarry sand. But there is also a pitfall here: for some types of bricks, the coefficient of thermal expansion is very different from the characteristics of the solution, which is why cracks may appear in the combustion zone. Therefore, it is recommended to replace the cement with a mixture of chamotte clay in a 1: 1 ratio.

We spread the arched woodpile

Previously, it will not hurt to draw on the screed the contours of the future barbecue - a rectangle of 2126x926 mm. The masonry is made in half a brick, starting from the back wall - a row of eight bricks with 10 mm seams. The walls are reported from the side - perpendicular rows of three bricks each. Another partition is laid out flush with the fourth brick of the back wall, so the masonry in the plan takes a W-shape.

The laying of the second row starts from the side walls, but in this case the first brick is laid on the back wall, which ensures the ligation between the rows. In the second row, the front ends of the walls are completed with add-ons - halves of a brick cut off by a grinder. The second row ends on the back wall: first, 3.5 bricks of the rear wall of the woodpile, then across a whole brick of the middle partition and 3 more bricks of the right compartment. The third row, like every odd one, is laid out in the same way as the first, the fourth and all subsequent even ones - in the same way as the second.

Thus, the masonry is erected up to the thirteenth row inclusive. Now you need to prepare a sheet of drywall or LMDF with dimensions of 130x80 cm.The sheet is rolled up in an arc (the drywall must be cut for this) and inserted into the woodpile compartment so that its lower edges are at the seam between the sixth and seventh rows. Thus, the formwork of the arch is formed, from below it must be supported with vertical and oblique strips, which are cut in place.

In the front part of the arch, 7-8 bricks are laid out in a fan, in the lower part the seam between them is slightly less than a centimeter and widens with a wedge. The front ends of the bricks are aligned according to the rule flush with the walls and the partition. First, the bricks of the arch are fixed with mortar in the back, leveled visually and left for an hour to set. During this time, you need to knock down and press a small formwork shield to the front of the brazier, the top of which comes out flush with the thirteenth row of masonry.

The seams between the stones of the arch must be carefully filled with mortar, tamping it with the edge of a trowel. The deeper part of the arch can be filled with broken brick and mortar. Ultimately, flush with the formwork and the top row is displayed cement strainer.

Arrangement of the cooking zone: on a grid or on skewers

The fourteenth row of masonry is made like all even ones, with the exception of adding half a brick in the front part. Instead, along the front of the barbecue, the row is closed with four bricks. The cement screed is covered with the same masonry: here three bricks alternate in the second horizontal row, two with half-bricks in the third, and so on, up to the back wall, that is, the bottom of the firebox is completely covered with bricks.

In the area of ​​installation of the countertop, the addition of the fourteenth row is absent and so the decrease in the right side wall begins. With each new row, its depth will be reduced by half a brick.

The barbecue area is reported by analogy with the lower rows. There are a total of 19 rows in the barbecue, that is, its total height is just over 120 cm.

The front of the barbecue remained open. A row of three bricks is laid flat in it, then a row of two stones with half additions, on top of the masonry is done in a quarter. Two of the same exact rows are laid out at the back wall of the barbecue, forming its second side. The gap between the sides is about 70 cm, that is, both grill grates and skewers can be used on the grill. The width of the barbecue is also 70 cm, that is, it is focused on the simultaneous preparation of six portions of barbecue.

There is a little trick: two rows of front wall masonry can be successfully replaced with a 180 mm steel channel. In this case, you can adjust the width of the barbecue for skewers and a grate, and ash removal will also be easier.

Joining or grouting

To make the brazier look a beautiful and complete object, it is recommended to carry out the laying according to the fence post technique. You will get uniform joints of the same thickness if you apply the mortar over two 10 mm smooth reinforcement bars.

As a result, the seam will take on a neat semicircular shape, but you can always take the time to decorate if you fill it flush with the brick. Firstly, the masonry can be embroidered a day after the completion of the last row. Secondly, you have the right to leave everything as it is and process the visible surfaces with an emery stone after final drying. In addition to the fact that such a roughing looks good on its own, due to the absence of grooves on the seams, dust will not accumulate, and greasy streaks can be relatively easily eliminated by repeated grinding.

Auxiliary elements

Well, in conclusion, we will mention the various improvised means that simplify the preparation of fried meat. First of all, this is the countertop in the adjacent barbecue compartment. It can be installed on corners fixed with dowels along inner loop... It is also possible at the construction stage to lay several steel plates under the thirteenth row so that they protrude inward with "tongues" by 40-50 mm. The table top is removable in both cases and can be installed as needed. For stationary installation and all-season use, only "liquid stone" is suitable.

Of the other additions to the barbecue, a grate for a woodpile, a trash bin with a pedal drive of a lid, a vegetable washer embedded in the tabletop will be very useful. Do not forget to think about a flat "lid" on low legs for the barbecue, so that the sudden rain does not interfere with cooking. Soulful feasts!

If you are going to build a barbecue in the country or in the courtyard of a private house, then the instructions outlined here will be the perfect solution. There is a lot of theoretical information and schematic drawings and pictures on the Web, and there is not enough to clearly illustrate the whole process of laying a barbecue from bricks from A to Z.

Consider the construction of a brick barbecue using a specific example (in practice). The technology was described at the forum "House and Dacha" by a professional stove-maker Anatoly from Chelyabinsk. Judging by the reviews and photos of the results of the laying of the barbecue complex, the skill of this person commands respect.

Brick BBQ masonry

Below is a master class on laying a brick barbecue with a step-by-step photo report.

For example, an extension of a barbecue to a blank wall of a brick gazebo will be carried out.

The barbecue is laid on a concrete base (reinforced slab, 30 cm thick). Please note that a waterproofing layer is first made under the barbecue oven (2 sheets of roofing material are cut to size).

A cement-based refractory mixture "Hercules" is used as a mortar for brickwork.

Expert advice: if you use a clay solution, then 200-250 gr can be added to a bucket of clay-sand mixture. cement M400.

Refractory fireclay bricks are used for construction. Specifically for this design, a barbecue will need about 1200 pieces.

Masonry joint thickness:

• for the heat-resistant mixture "Hercules" - 5-7 mm;
• for oven mixture "Martel" - 3-5 mm.

Brick cutting:

• Chamfering from a brick (cutting the edge, done to give the brick a decorative effect) - a tile cutter with a 180 mm diamond disc is used

• Brick cutting - done with a grinder with a 230 mm diamond blade

Before a sharp fireclay brick is soaked for 5-10 minutes, a red brick - from 20 minutes (the lower the grade, the shorter the soaking time). For chamfering (edge), the brick is only wetted.

Do-it-yourself brick barbecue ordering

The first row is half-brick (the so-called flask) and the second is made of whole bricks (the edge is lined with cut bricks).

Ladder is a special thin brick, in the example, fireclay brick is used, cut in half

Arched (bow) lintel made of brick

The photo shows how to make a support arc - a circle along which a brick vault will be laid out.

Material prepared for the site site

In this case, the width of the openings is 71.5 cm, therefore, boards are taken for making a circle with a length of 71 cm. There are formulas for calculating the radius of the arch, but the master determines by simple markings using a thread.

It is necessary to find an axis, for this, 14.5 cm is measured, and 2 cm are left at the edges. The numbers may be different, it is important that the highest point of the circle is at least 1/8 of the width of the furnace opening.

A rule or a flat bar is applied to the board (the task is thus to simulate the continuation of the axis). As a result, we have 3 points. With a pencil, fixed on a thread, draw an arc. With an electric jigsaw, we cut out the circles, along which we outline 2 more boards and cut out two more circles.

The bricks are applied to the circle and the points of contact that need to be cut are determined. Marking is applied to each brick and corners are cut with the help of a grinder.

The circle is installed in the opening and the heel (support) bricks are cut in place.

The assembly is carried out from the edges to the middle. At the end, a castle brick is inserted.

Marking the height of the bricks. Bricks with wedges under the seams are placed on the circle, and a line is drawn with the help of a level to cut the bricks in height.

Conclusion

Naturally, the above shows the work of a professional stove-maker, however, if desired, you can achieve a similar result. Hopefully this guide will help you build a brick barbecue without the hired labor.

Often the concepts of barbecue and barbecue are confused, since they are built for cooking on smoke and coals. But the brazier is needed to cook a barbecue, and a barbecue woman is a way of cooking dishes on an open fire using a grill.

Usual brazier can be turned into a barbecue by attaching a grate to it.

BBQ oven are mobile and stationary, the size depends on the functions performed. The simplest furnace is built in dimensions 0.18 * 0.07 * 0.9 m, resembles an ordinary grill with a grill.

A slightly improved barbecue is erected with a place for a hob, its dimensions are 1.7 * 0.4 * 1.9m... Simplest furnace complex has dimensions 1.2 * 2.2 * 1.9m.

Furnaces are offered for construction with a cauldron, barbecue, stove, and other devices for charcoal cooking... You just have to choose the project that suits your needs. We will tell you in detail in this article about how to build a brick barbecue with your own hands. Drawings, photos of some projects are attached. Well, the dimensions of a brick barbecue, drawings and photographs of other models of stoves can be found on the adjacent pages of our website.

Why build a DIY brick outdoor barbecue?

Modern variety of street slabs does not give the opportunity to choose a single model - I want to take an element from each project. Do-it-yourself brick garden barbecue stove allows you to combine them into one perfect stove on your site.

Photo 1. A small, highly aesthetic brick garden barbecue stove with a barbecue and a work table. It is easy and quick to build such an uncomplicated do-it-yourself barbecue stove from brick and stone, especially if there is a special instruction for laying a barbecue with a barbecue.

TO pluses brick oven own construction include the following advantages:

• possibility of creating own project;
• the stove built in this way will stationary- it will not be stolen, even if the owners of the site will be absent for a long time;
• confidence in the materials and durability of the assembled furnace;
• barbecue laying is so simple that a person can master it without the experience of a stove-maker;
• giving the site classic style or country style;
• creating a reason for pride in front of friends.

What are the different designs of a bbq oven and brick kebab?

The main projects for the construction of a brick barbecue are divided into 3 types:

• without pipe- the simplest oven, reminiscent of a brazier, requiring minimum costs for the construction;
• with pipe- an improved oven, when cooking in which the smoke will not be blown away by the wind in different directions;
• with a pipe and hob - for the possibility of cooking first courses, for example, soups, borscht, fish soup.

The best option is to create ovens with a tube without a plate, because most often the company is going to eat hot kebabs with no less hot drinks.

The pipe in the design of the furnace will protect the rest from the random dispersion of smoke, flying ash particles.

Building a brick barbecue: cost estimate

One of the first stages in the implementation of the project is the calculation of the material that will be needed to build the furnace. Garden barbecues for summer cottages have many diagrams showing how to make a particular structure, and some of them also have an order. It is especially convenient for it to determine in advance the amount of required building material.

Calculation of the number of ordinary bricks for a structure stove with chimney(in rows): 38 + 10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 + 10.5 + 33 + 33.5 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 35 + 35 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 18 + 26 + 22 + 20 + 12 + 10 + 9 + 7 + 5 + 5 = 474.5 pcs.

• usual Red brick 1 grade - 474.5 pcs.;

Calculation of the amount of refractory bricks for laying firebox(starting from row 14): 7 + 7 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 7 + 7.5 + 7 + 3 = 53.5 pcs.

• refractory brick to create a firebox - 53.5 pcs.;
• concrete mortar for pouring the foundation or its mixture of water, sand, crushed stone, cement in a ratio of 4: 4: 4: 1;
• metal pipe 15-20 cm in diameter - 1 piece;
• board for the formation of the formwork - 1 pc .;
• coarse sand- 17 kg;
• reinforcement mesh- 2 m;
• sheet metal- 1 PC.;
• table top- 1 PC.;
• oven grate for collecting coal - 1 pc .;
• silicone and heat resistant sealant for sealing cracks in masonry - 1 tube;
• facing material.

Before moving on to the construction stage, check if there is tools:

• shovel;
• building level;
• rope;
• roulette;
• a hammer.

Such tools are so simple that it is difficult to find an alternative to use them.

Attention! When building a stove, you will need halves of bricks - you can make them with a grinder.

Choosing and preparing a place for construction

The place where you can build a barbecue oven with your own hands is selected based on comfort and fire safety. On the distance 3-4 meters from the stove trees, bushes, grass should not grow. If annexes, a bathhouse, other buildings are built on the site, the stove must be built at a distance. The prevailing wind direction should not be in the direction of your own and neighboring buildings.

Photo 2. An impromptu resting place with barbecue in the garden thickets. Surely you have a corner on your site where a brick barbecue will fit perfectly. The photo does not allow us to estimate the size of the site, but even a small stove will look better than such a scorched piece of earth.

If we are discussing the comfort of using future cooking in an outdoor oven, it is most convenient to place the structure next to recreation area- patio, gazebo, terrace. If such places are not provided on the site, you can choose any place for the barbecue woman, and place a table with chairs next to it. Keep in mind that you will need a lot of water and wood for cooking and oven maintenance. The size of the working area of ​​the furnace is selected depending on the financial capabilities and the size of the site.

• being on the leeward side of a residential building. Otherwise, the smoke will go to the house, penetrating inside and leaving traces of soot outside;
• undesirable presence of plants next to a barbecue grill made of bricks - their vital activity will be disrupted due to high temperatures.

When the place is chosen, you should prepare platform for the oven zone... The soil is cleared of the fertile layer: grass, bushes, trees. It is allowed to remove trees from your site without the consent of local authorities, provided that there are no environmental restrictions.

Attention! Remember that roots left in the ground can sprout, damaging flooring oven zone.

Usually, during planning and clearing the area for future construction, coniferous and fruit trees are planted. After that you can go to the stage of pouring the foundation according to the shape and dimensions that your chosen barbecue drawing scheme suggests.

Brick BBQ building

A stove on a personal plot, whatever type it belongs to, this structure is quite intricate and requires a certain amount of knowledge. Therefore, for everyone who decided to build a barbecue for a summer residence with their own hands, step-by-step instruction, which is given on this page of the site, is simply necessary. If laying barbecue ovens with your hands is a process unfamiliar to you, you are unlikely to be able to lay out even the first row without such instructions brickwork.

Before starting construction, it is advisable to complete an approximate drawing for calculation the required amount materials and correct construction of the structure.

Furnaces with extensive experience do not use a drawing for masonry (they already know by heart how to lay out a barbecue out of bricks with their own hands).

If you are not a specialist, you - in addition to the usual drawing - will also need ordering brick barbecue, masonry drawings or a detailed diagram of barbecue laying.

Any brick oven is built in layers - one row of bricks after another. The number of bricks in each row is not the same and they can be folded in different ways. To know exactly how to make a brick barbecue with your own hands and not to confuse anything, and you need drawings with an order. Even a novice stove-maker, having such drawings in his hands, is sure that projects for ordering barbecue ovens will help to avoid gross mistakes during construction.

How barbecue ovens are made for giving out of bricks: foundation (in stages)

The heavy weight of a brick oven requires a solid foundation. Equally suitable tape and monolithic foundation. We will use the recommendations of the furnace specialists and give preference to the monolithic version.

Attention! Best to pave working area around the stove.

So, let's start building a barbecue with our own hands - step by step instructions for pouring the foundation:

• digging a foundation pit 1.5 * 2 m with a depth of up to 0.4 m.
• the bottom is leveled with a shovel;
• a layer of sand is filled up 10 cm thick, filled with a small volume of water, compacted;
• a wooden formwork fastened with self-tapping screws is installed;
• reinforcing mesh is laid;
• the foundation is poured with concrete mortar;
• leave for a week until solidification.

Attention! When mixed, air accumulates in the solution, due to which the strength of the structure decreases. To eliminate air, you need to make holes in the uncured concrete.

Brick BBQ masonry: base

The base on which the entire stove structure will be installed is the first stage from which the laying of a brick barbecue begins. Step-by-step instruction, which we present here, should help to avoid mistakes due to which the entire structure may end up unsuitable for operation.

Attention! At the stage of laying out a barbecue with your own hands, red baked bricks of the 1st grade and a cement solution are used step by step.

After the foundation has solidified, it is carefully studied for cracks... They need to be repaired and wait until they harden.

Further, it is marked furnace circuit... Experts recommend pulling the cord between the pieces of reinforcement stuck in the corners. Bricks are laid along the cord, greased with cement mortar and a 2 layer is laid, starting with half a brick.

Check the evenness of the masonry using a level.

Attention! Tap the top and side of each brick with a hammer to strengthen the adhesion of the building materials.

The coal grate is laid on the second row. Apply mortar to the end of the brick to improve the reliability of the masonry.

Subsequent rows will start with halves of bricks... Further, 5 rows of bricks are laid according to the presented scheme. Starting from the 6th, will be located oven tray- a small ledge is made here. 3 rows are laid according to the scheme, and a new ledge for oven table basics.

Advice! Select the height of the oven and table, guided by ease of use. You can freely treat the number of initial rows - they do not affect the strength and reliability of the structure in any way.

Barbecue oven masonry: firebox

Attention! At this stage, you will need 2 types of bricks - ordinary red and refractory, a solution of clay and sand. The bricks will be laid out in 2 rows - the outer one is red brick, the inner one is fireclay. The bottom of the firebox should also be lined with refractory bricks.

Basis for firebox and countertops done in the form of a screed. Bars of planks are laid out with a thickness of one brick of bricks, cut to the size of the span. From above it is poured with a solution of concrete, left for 5 days.

The height of this part of the furnace depends on its shape: 9 bricks for a rectangular one, 7 for an arched one. Depth - up to 70 cm... The pipe is removed after a few rows.

Photo 3. The process of building a brick barbecue is in progress. The photo was taken at the stage when the laying of the barbecue oven is almost ready and the construction of the firebox is nearing completion. Another module is at the stage of laying the first row of bricks.

Attention! To remove the chimney, the masonry area is gradually reduced, each row is reduced by half a brick in length and ¼ in width. From the 7th row, laying of the pipe with a height of up to 13 rows will begin.

Chimney masonry

Attention! At this stage, red brick and cement mortar are used.

A chimney in a brick barbecue located in a gazebo is bought at a hardware store or welded from sheet material ... To seal the free space between the pipe and the furnace, use heat resistant sealant... The gazebo must be provided with a fireproof opening for the outlet of the chimney.

Important! A head is put on the upper end of the pipe to create the correct draft and protect the stove from precipitation that can disrupt its functionality.

It is easier to buy a tabletop in a store by attaching it to the created ledge silicone sealant... To make it yourself, you need to plaster with cement and finish with tiles or stone the surface after installing the slab.

Decorating a stove with a pipe

After removing the chimney, you can take care of appearance B-B-Q. To do this, decorate the oven for barbecue and barbecue with your own hands: lay the floor covering with non-slip material, for example, porcelain stoneware... In this case, a special glue is used. They pass along the facade with a grinder and clean with a brush to eliminate the remains of the solution. Tile or wild stone can be used to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the structure.

Additional attributes

To increase the comfort of rest next to an outdoor stove, it is advisable to take care of additional attributes.

To decorate the site and the possibility of a cozy time in the evening, you should supply electricity and perform table lighting, the hearth, the space under the roof, the boundaries of the recreation area or site.

If you are going to build a brick barbecue with your own hands, drawings of this kind will be necessary.

Work table to prepare food for cooking, rack to place spices, dishes and utensils located next to the working area.

You can completely place the stove with a chimney in a glazed gazebo and cook delicious kebabs all year round or mount a canopy for basic protection from precipitation.

As furniture for relaxation, a table, benches or chairs are purchased or created. Designers do not recommend buying cheap plastic furniture- it will spoil the atmosphere of street cooking and may cause a fire. It is better to give preference to forged, wooden, wicker furniture in natural colors.

Fire safety

Remember to follow fire safety rules. No one wants to interrupt their rest to call the fire department and eliminate the consequences of the fire of nearby objects.

Rules for installing the stove to prevent fire:

• need for construction on a solid foundation;
• finishing with metal sheets or other non-combustible floor material in front of the oven;
• accommodation at a decent distance from flammable substances, trees, bushes, buildings.

Photo 5. A set of imported fire extinguishers of various sizes. For fire safety purposes, any brick barbecue oven must necessarily be equipped with one of these items: the photo shows how rich the choice is for the owner of the summer cottage.

Operating rules:

• when the oven is idle, it is covered cover so that precipitation does not impair functionality;
• shield children from a location close to the oven;
• do not leave the oven lit, especially with food, unattended.
