Abstract
A safety device for outdoor cooking grills having a plurality of base pieces that are linearly joined such that they may be folded together for transportation or unfolded for use by interlocking the first piece with the last piece to form an enclosure. Depending on the number of base pieces used, the enclosure may take the form of triangle, octagon, or other geometric shape, and may contain an opening to facilitate ventilation. A top piece having a central opening for permitting access to the grill and an indented access point to allow a user to stand closer to the grill is positioned over the base pieces.
