    Default Hitch receiver Bbq Grill

    This has been a work in progress for about a week. I finally finished it, well almost. I'm going to add about one foot legs to it that will attach to the bottom. The legs will store in the "L" while traveling. The grill is too close to the spare tire, which had to be like that for structural reasons. I can simply open the back gate or remove my spare while using. I originally made it for a truck and was going to sell it, but I like it too much and kinda want to keep it. Best Part is that it cost me around $175 to build buying all the metal, paint, and such. There aren't too many of these on the forum so I thought I'd share. Hope y'all like it!

    Thanks. I agree beer is always good. Maybe we can find a way to mount both. Beer and BBQ... Couldn't go wrong with that.

    It's the thickness of the pipe. I use that pipe in my line of work. 500 wall is right at a half inch thick and is really heavy. The only reason I asked is I see those grills made out here on the pipeline and I thought u might be a pipeliner.

    Oh ok, that makes sense now. I believe this is 3/8" pipe that was part of a large smoker. It measures 17" long by 13" diameter. The local scrap yard sells it for $0.30 a pound. I've bought way to much from them for all my projects.
