32 Practical Outdoor Barbecues

From Elegant Modern Grills to Log Barbecue Cookers

— August 27, 2013 — Art & Design
With the summer season almost coming to a close, there's no better way to end it than with a summer celebration, and these outdoor barbecues are offering some practical ways to have a fun cookout outside.

Barbecuing is one of the best parts about enjoying the summer season, and these practical outdoor barbecues are offering homeowners some creative examples on how they can immediately start grilling outside. While frying up a steak or piece of chicken inside on your stove top is one practical way to cook a dish, it often lacks that scrumptious outdoor grilling taste that barbecued dishes just seem to have.

From collapsible camping stoves to simple wood-burning barbecues, these practical outdoor barbecues will definitely make any summer gathering something your friends will surely remember.
