BBQ Part
All our BBQs are hand made pre-cast products. As
such, small imperfections are a known characteristic
including small (hairline) shrinkage cracks that often
appear as the parts dry after casting. These small
cracks are visible on the various pieces specially
near corners, All pieces are reinforced with pencil
rod inside the casting which will ensure its struc-
tural strength. The assembled parts will be much
stronger than the individual pieces.
Note: mall difference can be made up with
the fini h material .
BBQ A embly
Starting with the base, and using Type S ma onry
mortar, assemble all BBQ parts except the firebox.
Firebox A embly
Set firebox pieces using fireproof mortar. Mix the
mortar as follows
• 1 Part fire-clay sand (provided w/ kit)
• 1 Part Type S Mortar
Mix using clean water to a peanut butter like consis-
tency.
Do not u e add mixe with thi mortar.
Place a 2 inch bead of mortar along the perimeter
of the firebox. Set the sides, front and rear firebox
walls over mortar, and trowel joints clean.
Stucco fini h (fini hing option)
Various sizes and styles of stucco beads, corners
and stops are available in both vinyl or metal. We
obviously do not recommend vinyl due to the heat
factor, therefore use metal only for this application.
A one part stucco at 3/8” is adequate for this appli-
cation. Using a suitable construction adhesive, at-
tach the 3/8” beads and stops to the BBQ as
needed. Once all the beads and stops have cured
sufficiently, mix and apply a one part stucco over all
the exterior surfaces. Trowel evenly with the beads
and stops using a Darby or other suitable tool.
After as little as one hour the stucco base can be
ready for a finish coat, with or without a color mix.
Apply the finish per the manufacturers instructions.
