outdoor grill

Backyard cooking station

An outdoor grill is a cooking apparatus designed for use outside, typically in a backyard, patio, or campsite, that applies heat from below to cook food.

Most grills use charcoal, propane, or natural gas as fuel, though electric and pellet models exist.

The term covers everything from small portable units to elaborate built-in setups.

We fired up the outdoor grill for the Fourth of July cookout.
