Solar-powered grill for summer BBQs

I can buy an awful lot of charcoal for $240. Let's see ... yeah, about 10 years' worth.
That's not enough payback to make me consider solar, especially since solar doesn't work at night, early in the morning, late in the day, when it's overcast, etc. $240 for a cheap bunch of tin that cooks part time -- the manufacturers must be laughing all the way to bank at the fools who buy this piece of claptrap.

please tell me how to make solar grill for $20

Umm...Helena...if you turn it with it's "back" to the sun, it will no longer be able to focus the reflected sun. Sure, it will still be hot, as it is a piece of metal sitting in the sun; it just won't be collecting rays and focusing then into one area to cook your food.

yep! several web sites available. I use a silver sunshade

kaycee , i thought that too, but then is saw one of those oves burn down a piece of wood in less than a minute.

trust me, it WORKS very good.

it would make it a great grill for the beach......but how do you keep it cool???? especially if you do not have shade.....would it stay HOT just from heat in the air??? would love to know more about it.....pros and cons...

michelle - how??
"you can make your own solar cooker for under $20."

What Part of SOLAR do you not understand?

How in the world would you keep flies from landing on the raw meat while it is basking in the sun, waiting to start cooking? Gross!

At least a solar oven has a cover to keep vermin out of your food. No Solar BBQ's for me thank you!

I made a solar grill in 1977 for a class science project. I worked although it was a very crude one.

To grill at night, you shimpy just go to the other side of the erph.

That Tammock link's not working for me.

more info on opperation, and where to get please.

I was excited about it, but after seeing it, they'll have to do better than that. It doesn't look very efficent. Why isn't there any info on it?

How this works??

Do you have plans or ideas on how to build a solar cooker?

you can make your own solar cooker for under $20.

what about grilling @ night? Is this the only product available? It needs to be versatile if you actually want to make a difference.

it's nice products, environment friendly. Anyone who know the manufacturer of this product, pls kindly inform me the detail. My email: dyghwgf@aol.com
