To make this fairy tale come true, a barbecue fireplace installed on the territory of the site will help. Do-it-yourself garden barbecue fireplaces are not difficult to build even without the experience of a bricklayer, if you choose a simple design for installation. If a already If you had to build brick walls, then a more complex option will be within your power to build.

Models of fireplace stoves
To choose the right option, you need to consider several models how both in design and location.
The simplest design
it — the simplest BBQ fireplace design imaginable. Stone pedestals with cutting surfaces, installed side by side, line up at will, but it will hardly be possible to do without them, since cooking requires reliable table, and constantly bringing it to the oven will not be very convenient.
The fireplace stove is not covered with a roof and is a separate element of the landscape design decoration, not included in the gazebo complex. It should be noted that she organically fit into the environment.
The platform on which the stove is installed smoothly passes into the lawn in front of it, where you can sit down during a pleasant rest, sitting at the table, having interesting conversations and eating delicious dishes.
Since the design is simple, it only has a firebox for barbecue and a niche for storing firewood. In such ovens you can cook barbecue and other dishes on the grill — is fried vegetables or meat on lattice.
When building stoves-fireplaces separately from the gazebo, those. without a roof, a special waterproof mortar is used for masonry, which will not collapse from exposure to precipitation.
Since this building is not too massive, fundament dlI her it is not necessary to deepen very much, it is enough to build a reinforced slab with a thickness of 12—15 centimeters and an area slightly larger than the base of the oven — by 10÷15 centimeters.
Fireplace stove in the gazebo
This version of the fireplace stove in combination with the gazebo is more complex and laborious in construction. The construction will require more time and material, but it will last a longer time, as it will be protected from rain and wind. Difficulties will also be encountered when conducting a chimney pipe through the roof, as well as arranging waterproofing around her head.
Makes work more difficult volumetric furnace design, as in the setcs inIt is not only a barbecue oven, but also a hob with a separate firebox, which must be connected to a common chimney pipe. But the convenience of this structure is undeniable, since here, in addition to the stove and hearth, there is a cutting table and a niche for fuel supply.
If choice fall on this model, but there is no practice in the construction of such structures, it is better to invite an experienced assistant or craftsman who will independently cope with the work.
Separately, it must be said about a solid gazebo with brick walls — they hide hosts and guests not only from the wind, but also from curious neighbors. A roof over your head will help too. — She will not allow to spoil the holiday in any weather. When it rains, it is even romantic to sit near the fire, in this protected corner, watching the falling drops of water and the play of flames in the hearth.
Fireplace stove on the terrace
We can say that this option for installing a barbecue oven is the most convenient, especially if the territory of the summer cottage is very small or densely planted with exotic plants located in a special combination or on alpine hills.
And of course, most important ease of installation, is the proximity to the house. Having such bake so close with her You can use it to prepare a variety of meals every day. Especially since This complex provides all the conditions for preparing a full meal. At the time when the meat will be roasted in the furnace, you can cook the first course and side dish on the hob. The only reason that can interfere with the cooking process — it's the lack of fuel.
The terraced roof will allow not only to cook all summer outdoors, but also to eat there. By setting up a table, chairs or armchairs, you can provide all the comforts for an evening rest in front of a burning stove.
The complex will need more fuel, because two fireboxes will participate in the cooking process: for a barbecue and under the hob.
If you install such a structure in a private house, then the stove will help out more than once in various unforeseen situations. For example, a holiday is being prepared, and for some reason the electricity was turned off. In this case, the stove is kindled, and everything planned is prepared on it.
In addition to such models, there are others in which devices are arranged to expand the functions of this complex. — it can be a cauldron, a smokehouse, a grill and a tank for heating water.
