Why run out and spend big bucks on a barbecue grill when chances are you already have everything you need lying around the house? Here are some excellent barbecue designs which you can build from common, everyday items.

Do you have an old oil drum out in the yard? Who doesn't? Perhaps you have a few old bricks out in storage. How about an old beat up car that will never see the road again? Don't throw them away! These items are a goldmine for the weekend warrior looking to build a personalized barbecue pit.

Did you once have dreams of being a professional drummer, but finally surrendered to pressure to get a real job? Don't be bitter, be resourceful! That old snare drum makes for a great hibachi.




There you have it, several awesome ideas you help you build your own barbecue at almost no cost. Don't waste hundreds of dollars on a grill from the store which you'll probably only use a few times per year. Build your own, save money, and be the envy of the Jones.
