    Abstract: A barbecue grill cart including a right and a left leg frame assembly, each of the leg frame assemblies having a lower frame assembly and an upper frame assembly. Each of the upper leg frame assemblies also includes a support member configured to receive a barbecue grill. The right and left lower frame assemblies telescopically engage the right and left upper frame assemblies, respectively, thereby forming the right and left leg frame assemblies. As such, each of the front and rear legs has an overlapping region. A front panel and a rear panel, both having flange means at each end configured to receive a corresponding leg, are included. Securing means are passed through the flange means of the front and rear panels, as well as through the corresponding legs on opposing ends of said overlapping region, thereby creating a secure barbecue grill cart structure.
