I like the idea but I don't think I have enough topsoil up here. There is one South African grill that I have been seriously considering copying. Not something I could make at home, would have to get it water jet cut and bent up, but jeepers it is tempting. Its the "FRONT RUNNER SPARE TIRE MOUNT BRAAI / BBQ GRATE" listed on this page: http://www.frontrunner.co.za/camping-gear/camp-kitchen.html# alistair |
