Abstract
An assembly for mounting a barbecue grill and a cooking related device such as an additional grill, burner or table top, to a support structure such as a post or cart. The mounting device is especially suitable for gas barbecue grills and allows for various size grill units to be combined whether the two units are of the same size or different sizes. In one embodiment, only a single grill is utilized, and the area adjacent the grill is used as a working surface. In another embodiment, a single grill unit is employed, and the support surface adjacent the grill has an auxiliary burner. The mounting assembly is fabricated from few parts and permits ease of installation.
