Barbeque shed

[trainman1385]

I decided that I needed more space in my garage, and in my sheds. Right now my barbeque is in the garage, a patio table is stored in my garden shed and the chairs are stored in another shed during the winter. I have spent alot of money on these items and don't want to leave them out in the weather. So I designed a 4'x7' lean to style shed to house these and other items. I will post more pictures as time allows. It will have double doors that will open and allow me full access to the floor space and the table will actually be stored above the barbeque horizontally on custom brackets.

Great idea and I'll be waiting for updates. Be on notice that you'll basically be my guinea pig so do it up nicely!!!

subscribed! looks great so far. something like this would be perfect for my patio furniture. i don't like leaving it outside all winter, even though it's always covered.
but the bbq stays outside - bbq season never ends!

i look forward to more details (foundation, construction). thanks!

looks great! I used half of the space in our garden shed for our patio furniture.... I may have to copy you.......

I have been wanting to build something like this but use it to contain my smoker. I want to be able to pipe the smoker out of it. Figured it would cut down on wind affect and rain too.

Careful--the smoker will turn that shed into an oven, and could set the back wall on fire. (I nearly did this in a hunting cabin years ago--got the pot-belly stove too hot, and the wall studs were smoldering. Thank God the smoke woke us up, instead of putting us to sleep!)
Besides being a fire hazard, it'd be VERY hot while tending to your meat.

Well I maaged to get the doors built and hung last night, ran out of galvanized nails or I would have gotten it trimmed out last night as well

Every house the GF looks at has an elevated deck (6'+) so if we get a place with something like that.... I gonna put a lower deck under it with some privacy walls to keep the weather off the deck and I can bbq all year long even in the Canadian winter! Heck I like yours with the doors I could do the same for some of the yard tools too!

Kinda want to be different and do a wooden plankway style walk to the shop.

Well I got it painted, and the shingles are on. I still need to do some touchup on the paint and a few interior shelves need to be made, but it is coming together nicely

Assuming it's an offset smoker, it's easier to just rotate the smoker so that the wind isn't blowing straight into the firebox. I usually point my firebox to the East since the wind in Texas is typically from either the north or the South.

A piece of plywood leaning up against the smoker works well too.

I got my stuff moved into the shed last night, I still have to do some touchup on the paint, but it is basically done and I now have more space in the garage and two other sheds

Looks great! Did you consider putting in a ramp for the grill to ride down?

 

[Aaron P.]

such a simple brilliant idea....looks really well

 

[Twiggss]

nice looking shed.

 

[trainman1385]

I have a ramp, which I moved to take the picture, it fits inside the shed

Wow this is truely awesome.!!! Do you have dimensions/blue prints and or a process of how you built this? It's the perfect size!! I have no problem following something on paper, but just don't have enough skill to completely do something like how you made from scratch..etc. This would work perfectly on the side of my house. My back yard isn't big enough to have a full size type of shed or at least not that would be an eye sore... this on the side of the house matching like yours would be perfect for lawnmower, string trimmer, blower, rakes and shovels..etc. And still keep the entire back yard open!

Thanks!
