Abstract
An apparatus for a barbecue support and storage frame system that provides support, mobility, and storage for a barbecue grill. The apparatus includes two c-shaped elements that are equally spaced from one another. The c-shaped elements have upper legs and lower legs. Mounted to the upper supports is the barbecue grill. Attached to the lower legs are wheels and extensions. The wheels allow the user to easily maneuver the barbecue to any desired location whereas the extensions prevent the barbecue from moving when in use. Also attached to the lower legs are shelves. The lower legs are positioned so that they and the shelves do not interfere with the items--food and barbecue accessories--that are placed on the shelves. Shelves are also hinged to the upper legs of the c-shaped elements. At least one handle is placed on the barbecue grill or frame so that the user may maneuver the system in any desired direction The frame is built of sturdy lightweight material which can withstand the environmental elements as well as external loads that are placed upon it The frame is easily assembled, disassembled, and maintained.
