Abstract: A barbecue grill includes a light mounted on the hood of the grill to illuminate not only the grilling area, but also storage areas located below or beside the grill. One storage area can include a glass front so that food stored in this storage area can be illuminated by the light. The light can be mounted on the grill hood handle or it can be clipped directly to the hood. The light can also be part of a replaceable handle assembly for use on existing grills. The light is preferable one that will not attract insects and can be a battery powered fluorescent light or a neon light that can be also added for decoration.
