My super awesome patio

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

Finally got everything set up on my patio. We had a sunroom attached to our garage, but it would get well over 100 degrees in the summer, so we never used it. Knocked most of it down, but kept two of the walls below where the windows were. Added 16 feet of butcher block counter top to it, giving seating for 13-15. Then our neighbor built a pergola for us with lattice across the top for extra shade.

We have had a Weber Genesis II and and LG900 pellet grill, and I just got a Char-Griller Flat Iron 4 and spent this evening seasoning it while smoking wings on the LG.

I have three bamboo shades to hang behind the grills to keep the sunset out of our eyes. Will also be running some lighting and maybe even a couple of outdoor fans to keep air circulating since this is on the south side of the garage with little breeze.

Very nice party gathering space for family and friends, You should invite Baker or Dashaun over for some Q. Suggest not both at the same time. Your choice.

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

If I'm going to invite any Browns players over it would be Bubba Baker so I can try his boneless ribs! 😁😁

[klflowers]

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

[CaptainMike]

That looks, well, super awesome!

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

Thank you, Captain!

[Clawbear57]

I'm jealous i don't have a space like that. I hardly have a back yard..

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

Well, the horrific carpenter ant infestation as well as the rotting roof helped happen the demise of the sunroom that previously stood there. It was cheaper to rent a dumpster! 😁😁

[DavidNorcross]

Very nice. Now it is time for a party!

[Andrrr]

Very nice. What is that big brown thing just behind the griddle?

[HawkerXP]

Looks like one heck of a stump!

[Andrrr]

HawkerXP That’s what I was thinking but I didn’t think they made trees that big in OH?

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

It is the stump to what was a 70 foot tall silver maple. It had four separate trunks splitting off right above the cut line you see. The trunks were starting to spread apart and depending on which one fell first, I would have lost either the entire back of my house, or the garage and the back of the neighbor's house. Plus, it was so close it was actually starting to move the garage. Tree guy said it was the biggest tree he'd ever taken down. Diameter of the main trunk was 6 or 7 feet!
