Abstract
An outdoor cooking grill has a U-shaped support stand comprising a horizontal carrier beam attached to the upper ends of vertical legs; first and second fire grills are suspended from the horizontal carrier beam and are held together by clip connectors so that food, such as meat, is retained between the grill members. First and second fire grates are provided on opposite sides of the grill with each fire grate having one side supported by brackets on the vertical post with the other side being supported by a movable grate connected at an opposite end to an anchor block resting on the ground. Movement of the anchor block toward or away from the grill serves to position the fire grate inwardly or outwardly with respect to the food on the grate to adjust the cooking rate.
