An outdoor grill gives you the perfect excuse to celebrate with those you love and enjoy an amazing day of sunshine, laughter, and delicious home-cooked food.

But, for many, when summer ends and gray skies come, the grill is shut down and set aside for another year. And unless you store it away somewhere safe, the elements will gradually chip away at this fairly expensive piece of culinary equipment.

That’s one possible outcome, at least. The other? Invest in a durable yet affordable wooden grill gazebo or metal grill gazebo, and get ready for all-season outdoor grilling!

What is the purpose of a grill gazebo?

A grill gazebo transforms your grill into a kind of outdoor kitchen. It adds food prep surfaces, serving shelves, utensil hooks, and many other useful accessories that enhance your culinary possibilities.

Above all, a grill gazebo provides a shelter that protects your grill against harsh sun, heavy snow, and torrential rains. This helps extend the life of your grill, saving you money in the long run and giving you more opportunities for another backyard cookout.

Top 5 reasons to buy a grill gazebo

1) Keeps your grill in great condition

Rather than leaving your grill out in the open, a grill gazebo protects it against harsh weather. This reduces the risk of wear and damage, ensuring your grill continues to produce delicious food and lasts much longer.

To enhance your weather protection, Backyard Discovery grill gazebos feature corrosion-resistant steel roofs. These are designed to drain water, withstand heavy snow loads, resist hurricane-force winds when properly anchored, and guard against UV rays. So no matter what climate you live in, you can always have confidence that your grill stays safe.

2) Creates a prep space

Grill gazebos feature built-in food prep and serving areas, and other handy features like accessory hooks. 

This gives you a convenient space to store and prep your meat and veggies before they hit the grill. And once your burgers, fish, and steaks are perfectly cooked, you can serve them up to your guests right away.

3) Enables all-weather, all-season grilling

Have you ever organized a BBQ only for a sudden downpour to ruin your plans? With a wooden or metal grill gazebo, an inconvenience like that is a thing of the past.

The protective roof and spacious interior of a grill gazebo let you grill comfortably even when the weather’s not so great. And it gives you the shelter you need for outdoor cooking even in the middle of winter!

Once your food is cooked to perfection, you could bring it inside or eat outside. With an extra-large gazebo, such as our 20x9.5 Arcadia gazebo in beautiful cedar wood or the 20x9.5 Stonebridge gazebo/carport in elegant galvanized steel, you have enough room to prep, sit, and eat.

But it’s not all about bad weather. Some of our grill gazebos incorporate heat-reduction technology to keep you safe on the sunniest days. A thermal barrier in the 29-gauge steel roof reduces heat transfer by up to 20o, ensuring a comfortable cooking experience in any region.

4) Lets you stay social as you cook

Sometimes, being an outdoor grillmaster can get lonely. After all, many people keep their grill away from the seating area to avoid disturbing their guests with heat or smoke.

But some grill gazebos such as our Granada Grill Gazebo also feature an outdoor bar. This gives your friends and family a place to sit and talk with you while you cook. Just because you’re in charge of the food, doesn’t mean you need to miss out on the love!

5) Offers incredible aesthetic appeal

A high-quality, thoughtfully designed wooden or metal grill gazebo simply looks great. 

Even when not in use, your grill gazebo acts as a decorative accent that transforms your deck or patio and enhances the beauty of your home.

This can bring you more satisfaction with your own slice of paradise. Plus, it can increase the value of your property when you’re looking to sell.
