Abstract: Portable barbecue pits grill a large quantity of food outdoors while remaining portable. A grill grate is supported by a rear wall and two sidewalls. The grill grate is removably connected to the top of the sidewalls by grill latches in the form of hasps. Two doors are hingedly attached to the sidewalls underneath the front of the grill grate. Door flaps are hingedly attached to the bottom of the doors. A lid with handles attached to its front and rear can be propped open on top of grill grate 12 by a lid support 18, or the lid can removably cover the grill grate 12. The lid also serves as a base for transporting the collapsed portable barbecue pit. The lid, rear wall, and sidewalls have tubular steel frames covered by sheet steel.
