How wonderful to get together with friends in the summer in nature or in the country and cook a delicious barbecue in the fresh air! An important detail of such a holiday will be the correctly chosen barbecue. Today in the market and in online stores you can find a huge number of them: forged, brick, metal and stone. It is important to choose a barbecue for a summer residence, suitable for a specific site. The prefabricated construction on the legs, consisting of five plates that are fastened with corners, is considered the most primitive and easy to use.
It is made of stainless steel, quickly assembled and disassembled, takes up little space. Also, picnic enthusiasts very often choose a barbecue suitcase, which is small in size, which is collected when carried in a small case with a handle.

It can be moved at the expense of small wheels and handles. Such a barbecue grill is suitable for those who come there to relax only for the weekend. A more suitable option for cottages and private homes can be called a large stationary structure made of stone, brick or forged metals.

Stone barbecue

Such a barbecue is very easy to build, and it will look very nice, resembling a hearth. With this product, you need to be careful, since when heated, the stone is able to crack.
Brick grill
The most common and safe is a barbecue frying product made of brick. Firstly, it has a longer service life and is a so-called open-air oven. It also has a lot more functions than its little "colleagues", namely frying meat and vegetables on the grill, cooking products on the grill, in a cooking stove, smokehouse, oven and other additions. In conjunction with the provided additional countertops and shelves for cutting food and storing dishes, such a barbecue grill for a summer residence will become an indispensable assistant in the preparation of tasty and healthy food. This stove is located in a specially designated area for picnics, under a roof or in the open. And since the product in any case will experience the influence of the environment, the brick is the most successful and wear-resistant material for this type of construction. After all, it has high resistance to moisture, temperatures, in addition, it is very heat-resistant.
Brick selection
To build a brazier for a summer residence, you need to choose a suitable brick, which is divided into silicate, fireproof with air cavities and a red stove. The first and third options are very badly affected by elevated temperatures. So, they are not suitable for creating a furnace. The refractory look is very durable and feels good at high temperatures. However, it does not tolerate frosts that are characteristic of the winter season. Therefore, it is also better not to use it. There was a special red stove building material. Just from it they build a home stove and barbecue for a summer residence. Photos and drawings of already laid out models of “street stoves” can be found in large numbers in catalogs of stores selling such products.
