She's no Pigvilion....

Only my wife looked at me like "Huh?!?" when I called it that. lol
Our deck is 14 feet in the air and makes a great grilling/smoking area when it's too windy on the deck. The problem is when it rains, it's pretty much unusable unless you like huge drops landing on your head. To fix this issue, I created my own little slice of 10' X 24' heaven.

As it stood before I got rolling

Needed to add more light! The little patio door light wasn't cutting it, but made a great donor for expanding.
.

.
Ready to re-install the existing light.
.

.
We have lights & a gutter!
.

.

.
3 - 60 watt equivalent LED bulbs toss out quite a bit of light. I have a dimmer switch, but haven't installed it yet.
I'm also wondering how many of my neighbors are researching pellet guns.... lol
.

.
Time for the good stuff... From the house to the gutter is 1.5" of slope.
.

.
Gotta break it in right away.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these grillers from the swift completion of their appointed meals.

Chad, you sir are the man!!!!!! Very nice, I envy you.

 

[Michael Gelinas]

That looks great! I WISH I could have a covered outdoor cooking area.

 

[Tony R]

It's a work of art!!! Nothing can stop you now and no excuses why you are grilling or smoking regardless of weather. I Wish I had a set up like you.

 

[Brian Dahl]

What are you lookin' at when you're on the deck? Chad, that's too much to be a pigvalion. More like a pig-prominade or pig-mansion, or "worlds largest distance between top of my grill and my ceiling."

 

[Kevin Glenn]

Great solution to your problem. Looks awesome!

 

[Tim McCann]

Very nice! Plenty of room for smoke to exit.

 

[PeterZ]

That is very nice. Great job !
The only thing I would do is something about those lites. Maybe to much light
for the neighbors.........................only time can show.

[Paul Kastner]

Hmm. Now no excuses on doing all the cooking in your new "cook shack".

 

[Mike Coffman]

Nice addition!

 

[John Solak]

Very nice cooking/ man cave area!!!

 

[Gary H. NJ]

I thought the word Pigvilion was in the dictionary by now Chad. At any rate, as long as it keeps the rain off your head you're good to go.

 

[George L]
