The inventiveness of this group never ceases to impress me, so I'd like
to see if someone has thought of a solution for this.
When I backpack I always bring a little folding aluminum windscreen to
keep gust of wind off my bitty stove. It reduces fuel consumption and
speeds the cooking process. It's grease spatter shield designed for
household stovetop use. Three 10'' square panels hinged together.
I'd like to have something to shield our little charcoal BBQ from errant
breezes, to ease lighting and reduce ash dispersion. The BBQ is one of
those cheap 14'' diameter round jobbies that sits about 10'' high --
cost about $12 at a local Osco/Sav-on. My spatter guard thing is too
small for it and I can't think of anything similar that is fireproof,
self-supporting, and collapsible.
