Not just a barbecue, but a whole barbecue complex made of bricks

Many portable devices have been invented for cooking meat on coals.

Mobile barbecues They do their job well, but over time they become unusable.

It is more practical to build on garden plots barbecue - ovens made of brick. Such complexes will last longer, and it is more convenient to cook food in them.

You can build a barbecue oven yourself, you should start by studying information on this issue. On the Internet, projects of barbecue complexes made of bricks are presented in a variety and with detailed dimensions.

Combustion chamber modules

Photo 1. Large outdoor brick barbecue complex. It is built of brick in the yard of a country house and includes several modules.

Furnace complex consists of so-called modules, which have a certain functionality.

It can include no more than three modules with combustion chambers:

• Oven;
• Oven for a cauldron;
• Cooking stove;
• Smokehouse.

This design ensures good traction and does not require significant increase chimney pipesThere may be several modules without combustion chambers.

The barbecue grill is the central part of the complex, as it requires direct flow, smoke draftIt is a small structure with a foundation area no more than 1 square meter. The height reaches two meters. The pipe for the complex is calculated individually and depends on the number of modules with combustion chambers.

Furnace module — can be with a hob and a baking chamber. The area of ​​such a stove is no more than one square meter. The height does not exceed the size of the central module.

Module with a smoking cabinet — has a similar design to a baking cabinet. Depending on the required technology, part of the smoke is passed through the smoking chamber.

Modules without combustion chambers. For ease of use of the barbecue stove complex, a wash And table topThis is a supporting frame made of bricks on which a horizontal surface is installed.

By building your own barbecue you can save a significant amount of money that would be required to hire professionals. But in addition to saving money, you should be aware of the risks that arise.

For example, about errors in compliance construction technologies and design. To prevent them, it is necessary to take a responsible approach to the selection of the project and its implementation.

The design should not be complicated, but have the necessary functionality. The simpler the project, the easier it is to implement.. Also, when choosing a project, you should take into account the features of the construction site and operating conditions. It is desirable to have a visual example of the implementation of the selected furnace.

Another disadvantage of self-construction is the time costs. Without any experience in this area, it will take more time to build a barbecue than with professionals.

Stages of construction of a barbecue stove complex

Let's consider in sequence all the stages that include the construction of a barbecue complex, no matter what size it is.

Selecting a project

Construction of a stove barbecue complex begins with the selection of a project. The most popular barbecue complex projects are of the following options. We draw the reader's attention in advance to the fact that no matter what brick barbecue complex you choose, the masonry order attached to the drawing will be very useful in implementing the project.

Barbecue grill with oven for cauldron

This outdoor stove complex consists of two modules with two combustion chambers. It can be made with or without external finishing. The complex has size from 1.5 to 2 meters in length. The height starts from two meters without taking into account the pipe. The foundation will require approximately two square meters of area.

The central part of the complex is barbecue grill, and at the edges are located oven for cauldron And oven with oven. The chimneys of the adjacent modules are led into the central pipe. This design has a length minimum 2.5 meters. The height of the barbecue complex starts from two meters, excluding the pipe. The area of ​​the foundation is equal to three square meters.

BBQ, with two ovens, oven, countertop and sink

Such a complex can be built in summer kitchens and capital buildings. The heat from the stoves is enough to heat a small room.

Photo 2. A large brick barbecue complex with several ovens, a cooktop and a sink. It is built on the space of a covered summer gazebo.

The length of the body starts from 3.5 meters. The height reaches two meters without taking into account the pipe. This complex has three combustion chambers, and a chimney system similar to the previous project. The foundation requires four square meters of area. In the center, the structure has a barbecue grill and ovens on the edges. The modules with a tabletop and sink can be positioned at an angle relative to the main body.

If you have chosen such a complex, multi-module project and are building a barbecue complex with a smokehouse, grill and cauldron, the row layout (that is, detailed brick laying diagram) will not only be useful, but also necessary.

The following stages of construction are considered using the example of the project “Barbecue - grill with an oven under the cauldron”.

Choosing a location for building a barbecue

The location for the construction of a barbecue complex must meet the following criteria:

• There should be a fence around this complex. hard surface.
• It shouldn't be flammable objects.
• Preferential wind direction should not be towards residential buildings and recreation areas.
• There must be one for him convenient approach.

Selection of building materials for construction

To build a barbecue complex you will need the following: building materials:

1. Fireclay refractory brick — the required number of bricks for the barbecue complex is 250-300 pieces.
2. Brick (preferably clinker) finishing or regular - used for the construction of the main structure of the chimney - 300-350 bricks.
3. Cement grade M-400 — used for pouring the foundation and for mixing the mortar when laying the main structure. Approximately 5 bags are required.
4. Fireproof oven clay or a special mixture for laying stoves - 2 bags.
5. River sand — will be required for filling the foundation cushion and adding clay and cement to the solution. Not less than 0.5 tons of sand.
6. Crushed stone — for the foundation cushion (you can use construction waste, broken brick, crushed cobblestone, gravel) approximately 1 ton.
7. Construction mesh - it must be laid in two or three layers when pouring the foundation - 4 square meters.
8. roofing felt or roofing felt - used for waterproofing the foundation and main structure. 1 roll contains 10 square meters and it will be enough.
9. Boards — for formwork (old or slabs are possible) the optimal thickness for formwork is 25 millimeters. You need — 2 three-meter boards.
10. Firebox door required for the oven - 1 piece
11. Ash pan door furnace (grate) - 1 piece.
12. Chimney dampers - 2 pieces.
13. Combustion chamber grate (installed on the ash pan) - 1 piece.
14. Cooking stove under the cauldron - 1 piece.

Preparing the tools

In order to build oven barbecue complex, no complex specialized tools are required. Everything you need can be purchased at a hardware store:

1. Level;
2. Roulette;
3. Marking cord;
4. Plumb line;
5. Shovels: bayonet, mortar, scoop;
6. Trough for solution;
7. Bucket of mortar;
8. Trowel;
9. Ladle for solution;

11. Pliers;
12. Hammer;
13. Sledgehammer;
14. Construction tachanka;
15. Concrete mixer (you can do without it);
16. Construction gloves, work mittens.

Foundation

Once the material has been purchased and the tool prepared, you can begin pouring the foundation.

1. To mark the edges of the required area, pegs are driven in and a marking cord is pulled.
2. Next is the required area goes deep by 20 centimeters.
3. Then sand and crushed stone are poured onto the bottom, on top of which a reinforcing mesh is laid.
4. The crushed stone is compacted, moistened with water and filled with concrete.
5. The next step is to establish ground formwork, into which crushed stone is poured and a construction mesh is laid.
6. Then concrete is poured into the formwork.

Photo 3. Hexagonal foundation. On such a base you can place a barbecue complex of an original design.

After the work has been done, the foundation must stand approximately 10-15 days. Then you can start building. The formwork can be dismantled on the third day.

Bricklaying

Let's take a closer look at how brick laying is done.

1. After the foundation has hardened, it is laid layer of roofing felt or roofing feltThis is done to ensure that moisture absorbed by concrete from the soil does not enter the brick structure.
2. Then the initial row of the foundation of the structure is laid out clinker bricks.
3. Starting from the second row, it is laid ash pan and a place under grate. In the central part of the barbecue, the base of the lower tier is laid out - woodcutter. Ash pan door and other hardware, installed during construction.
4. Next, the combustion chamber of the furnace is laid out firebrick.
5. Then the construction of the foundation continues clinker bricks, in accordance with the project order.

6. The base of the stove is completed with installation hob under the cauldron. Also at this level is installed partition over the woodshed B-B-Q.
7. Next, the barbecue combustion chamber is laid out firebrick.
8. Then the rest of the structure is completed clinker bricks. If desired, you can lay out radius arches of the woodshed and barbecue. This will help retain the heat and direct it to the center of the firebox. To make the arches neat, you need to prepare radius templates from boards and give the bricks a wedge-shaped form. Then fix the templates with wooden blocks to the sides of the firebox and cover with prepared bricks. After the solution hardens, the template is dismantled.
9. The final stage is laid out pipe.

The oven can be used for approximately in 10 days.
