High efficiency wind resistant kettle grill

1. A grill comprising:

a lower housing defining a kettle-type heating chamber; and

a fuel grate situated at a predetermined level within the lower housing for supporting a fuel source;

wherein the lower housing has a first wall defining a first plurality of air intake openings proximate the level of the fuel grate;

wherein the lower housing has a double wall construction comprising a second, inner wall covering substantially an entire interior of the lower housing and provides a second plurality of air intake openings proximate the level of the first plurality of air intake openings and on a same horizontal plane therewith such that at least a portion of the first plurality of air intake openings and at least a portion of the second air intake openings are aligned on the same vertical level.

2. The grill of claim 1 , further comprising:

a cooking grate situated above the fuel grate.

3. The grill of claim 2 , further comprising:

an upper cover positionable on the lower housing to cover the cooking grate;

wherein the upper cover provides an exhaust opening.

4. The grill of claim 1 , wherein at least the plurality of openings of the inner wall are below the fuel grate.

5. The grill of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of openings of the first wall and the plurality of openings of the second wall are both below the fuel grate.

6. A grill comprising:

a lower kettle type grill housing having a first wall defining a plurality of air intake openings and having a circular horizontal cross section along at least 90% of the vertical height thereof:

a fuel grate situated at a predetermined level within the lower housing vertically proximate the plurality of air intake openings for supporting a fuel source;

a cooking grate situated above the fuel grate;

a second wall, interior to the first wall, having at least one opening below the fuel grate proximate a lower most point of the kettle grill housing and defining a first air passageway between the first and second wall; and

a third wall, interior to the second wall, having a termination proximate the fuel grate but below the cooking grate, and defining a second air passageway between the second and third wall;

wherein air communicates between the first and second air passageways via the at least one opening of the second wall;

wherein air is communicated to the fuel grate at the termination of the third wall; and

wherein the first, second, and third walls are generally hemispherical in shape comprising a triple wall construction, and the first, second, and third walls each extend below the fuel grate such that the first and second air passages are both defined, at least in part, below fuel grate and air entering the air intake openings of the first wall must traverse the first and second air passageways to reach the fuel grate.
