We caught up with The Grill Pod from Maghera at this year's Balmoral Show.
Nigel from The Grill Pod explained: “It’s a one of a kind outdoor bespoke entertainment centre built to your specification of our optional extras which comes with high quality Mont Alpi kitchen appliances, extractor fan, remote roller door and a variety of additional media extras for your convenience.”
He added: “With 30 plus years of experience within the construction industry and our eye for design, we have created this new outdoor entertaining concept that we would like to share.”
Why not share your videos and photos from the show – email them in to farminglife@nationalworld.com or darryl.armitage@nationalworld.com. You can also share them via on Facebook messenger.

00:00 Hello, my name's Nigel and we've invented the GrillPod.
00:05 So the GrillPod is an outdoor kitchen built inside a pod.
00:10 We've got a TV, sound system, LED lighting, just entertainment all in one area.
00:18 With a nod on of a veranda if required.
00:22 And how long ago did you come up with the idea and where did the inspiration come from?
00:28 It took a year to develop.
00:30 It's been a long hour for us to get this all together.
00:34 So this is the end result.
00:37 Are they proving popular with customers here at Spelmore?
00:41 Very popular.
00:42 We're really happy with how it turned out for the show.
00:45 We actually got a trade stand in the year's end.
00:48 Really good.
00:55 I'm Moses and I'm from Riverside Landscapes and Verandas.
00:59 So we're a landscaping company and we work alongside Morvell to sell and supply our canopies into Northern Ireland.
01:07 Hello, my name's Mike and I represent Morvell.
01:12 We are a UK based manufacturer of verandas, canopies and pergola systems.
01:20 We're very happy and proud to be here supporting our trade partners at the Grill Pod and Riverside Landscapes.
01:27 Do you find that since Covid people are investing more in their outdoor space?
01:34 Yeah, absolutely.
01:35 It's become not just part of individual projects for one particular item,
01:42 but outside living is becoming a bigger part of ongoing projects such as lifestyle incorporating landscape,
01:52 incorporating outdoor kitchens, dining etc.
01:56 That's where we've seen growth in coverage over these particular areas.
02:01 If someone wants to look into a project, how do they get in touch or how do they start off?
02:10 If they want to visit us at the show, they're more than welcome.
02:13 If they can't get to the show, they can go on to www.thegrillpod.com
02:19 and in turn we'll be working in liaison with Morvell and Riverside Landscapes so we can do the whole package.
02:28 How long would a project normally last?
02:32 Depending on the size of the project, depending on what you put in front of us.
02:38 If you order a Grill Pod for example, that'll take 8-12 weeks.
02:41 In the middle of that, we'll have landscape and happen before your pod arrives.
02:47 So we'll work with you, the customer.
02:50 So no projects too big or too small?
02:53 No projects too big or too small.
