Very nicely done sir!
I've been thinking of using granite for some time now and this just cemented it in for me. 
Well done!

I got a great deal on the granite! I called places that sell to contractors and they also sell to end users. Look around I found mine on Craigslist

So inspirational. 
But then again some of us don't have 1/10 of teh skills to pull that off even if we could dream big.
Congratulations and thanks for taking the time to share the details and pics.  Love it!
I was not sure I could do it! But with the right tools and some research on who could help and asking for it when needed It got done!

Mod of the year (Decade).  You Win.
I second that
Even though I built it now would I be a contender?

Truth be told I didn't even think of mod month while building her! Not until a member brought it up did I think... did I release her early? Will it count because its only March? But then reality set in and though it would be nice to win, all the comments that all have posted are just as good!

Thanks EVERYONE!

Wow, now that is a grill-a-thon picture if ever I saw one!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

What's funny is that all grills can be used if needed at the same time! I have had 6 at once...the hard part is remembering what's under each lid ::) LOL
