Abstract: An energy-efficient barbecue grill includes an insulated top for retaining heat within the cooking area and a drain to remove grease from the cooking surface of the grill. A preferred embodiment of the grill is provided with an electric heat source.

Abstract: The accessory shelves are detachably hung on pins, allowing the shelves to be rotated to a folded down and stored position, or to be rotated to a horizontal locked position for use. The shelves are attachable and detachable without the use of tools or fasteners. The optional side burner is detachably held in a similar fashion, but with an additional locking bolt to prevent inadvertent pivotal rotation from the horizontal position.

Abstract: A decorative pop-in front panel provides the barbecue grill with a more finished appearance by hiding the fuel tank and its associated fuel lines. The panel is installed and held in place without the need for tools or separate fasteners. Pins secure the panel along the bottom edge and a detachable condiment rack holds the upper edge of the panel in place next to the control panel. The condiment rack is similarly installed without requiring tools or other fasteners by a bracket which allows the condiment rack to be hung and locked in place on the grill frame.

Abstract: The barbecue grill has a fabric-covered panel for concealing the fuel container. The fabric is stretched across a frame and held in place by pressing the fabric into a longitudinally extending groove to form a convolution in the fabric into which a spline is pressed to hold the fabric in place. By removal of the spline, the fabric panel can be removed and replaced to allow the user to decoratively coordinate the appearance of the barbecue grill with outdoor lawn furniture or the like.
