ABSTRACT:
A barbecue is fabricated from a cylindrical metal drum which is disposed with its axis horizontal. A dish made of transparent, heat-resistant glass is mounted in an aperture in the lid of the barbecue to provide a window. A plurality of vents are cut in the lower portion of the drum and fire brick is laid in the interior of the drum above the vents. The drum rests atop a scroll assembly which in turn rests atop a platform which is supported by vertically extending legs of a carriage. A plurality of turnbuckle assemblies connect the drum to the legs and may be tightened so that the drum, the scroll assembly, the platform, and the carriage are rigidly secured together. Air can flow through an interval between the drum and the scroll assembly, through the vents to burning coals supported on the fire brick. When the coals are extinguished, water can be sprayed into the interior of the drum and the ashes and water will flow through holes in the bricks, through the vents, onto the scroll assembly, and off of either end of the scroll assembly.
