Whether you just want to have a relaxing family meal or plan on having guests over for a party, the BBQ is a great option. It fits the bill for so many occasions! The BBQ is great for setting the tone of an evening, there is something about a BBQ that tends to relax people more than any other party theme.
The obvious key to the BBQ party is the BBQ grill itself. Now if you don't already have a BBQ grill you have a lot of options when it comes to getting one. One option is the store bought BBQ, these are a good option if you have plenty of money to spend, a good sturdy model that won't fade away after one or two seasons will cost you quite a bit!
For me the better value for money is in building your own brick BBQ grill. It takes quite a bit more effort than just driving down to the local store and buying one but once you've finished it's well worth the effort.
If you're weighing up whether or not to go for a brick BBQ in your back yard, here's a couple of things worth considering;
1) Security: If you have a secure yard or a secure garage to lock your shiny new store bought BBQ safely away in, great, you can sleep easy knowing it won't be stolen. However if you don't have a garage and your yard isn't so secure then a brick BBQ is your best bet, because it obviously wont be robbed from your garden.
2) Frequency of Use: If you intend to use your BBQ grill regularly, then a brick BBQ grill that's permanently in position will be perfect. However if you're not sure just how much you'll use your new grill maybe its best to buy a cheap grill from the store, just to see if you get enough use from it, before you go building a permanent BBQ fixture in your garden.
3) Space: How much space have you got to work with? If your garden is a reasonable size, well then a brick BBQ should sit nicely into it without taking over. But if you can barely swing a cat in your yard, maybe a smaller BBQ from the store is a better idea.
When all is said and done, a brick BBQ will suit the vast majority of yards, remember you can tailor the size and look of the whole thing to suit your space.
