Is there a ‘standard size’ barbecue grille?

Options
Hi all

I’m starting from scratch building a brick barbecue in the garden. Before I start laying the bricks (well, the brick is... not me) i’d Like to know if there’s a standard size grille. I’m not sure if it’s called a grille. I mean the metal rack thing you put your chops/chicken etc on.

Any other advice before I start would be appreciated too.

    I bought a Black Knight set which is pretty decent; I don't think grill sizes are that standard, but a good stainless steel piece should last a very long time.


    Ignore the recommended height/courses if following instructions to build the BBQ. For example, at 6.5" mine is significantly higher than the suggested build.


    If you've done no laying before then just take your time and start with small batches of mortar. A decent long spirit level is a bonus.

  • Buy the grill before you start laying bricks?
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
