The title says it all. Does anyone know of a good BBQ prep table that I could buy? I'd like one with a cutting board inlay, some shelves under the table and some hooks for hanging my grill tools.

I would normally consider buying a table that I can sit the XL BGE that I have on order in, but I intend to keep the XL BGE in the shed when I'm not using it so a table would make it to wide to fit through the door.

    not aware of any for purchase but check out the table forum. and , as always, for all things egg, check out the naked whiz lots of table pics there. most build their own or use a comercially available stainless table as a start..
    good luck post pics of your final product.

    if the cutting board inlay is wood i think it wont hold up outdoors, it may warp split etc

    I use a 30" x 48" stainless steel table that I bought from a scrap dealer who handles used restaurant equipment. It had no top. I paid $2 a pound for the table - it worked out to $82. I got a 1" thick HDPE top through the Internet - I can find the source if you're interested for $185 delivered.

    The table is rock solid with slots for knives at the back. I found out about the scrap dealer from a friend who has a restaurant. Also check out restaurant equipment auction notices in the local newspaper.

    It's great to be able to slap a whole brisket or loin and work on the table without concerns about the size of a cutting board.

    Thanks for the ideas. I've been looking at craigslist today and will keep my eye out for something.
