caliking
is Blowin Smoke!
Howdy Brethren.
It is now officially blazing hot in Texas, and will likely get hotter as the summer progresses.
Our backyard faces southwest and the sun is pretty intense in the afternoon, which is the time I usually find myself cookin' some 'cue. I have occasionally set up a patio umbrella in my cooking corner but the base is a b!tch to lug around. I was looking for somehting a litltle more convenient.
I was thinking of those sail shaped sun shades which are a reasonable price on Amazon:
Amazon.com: Triangle Sun Shade Sail 16 Feet 5 Inches - Sand Color: Patio, Lawn & Garden@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61qIyLlDE-L.@@AMEPARAM@@61qIyLlDE-L
I'm not sure whether I can anchor it to the wall behind my cookers and a to a tree effectively.
Also saw this which is more expensive and sounds unwieldy to set up:

I have an EZ-UP kind of folding canopy. Which is again a little unwieldy for one person to set-up , so I reserve that for when guests are coming over.
Aside from building a covered patio are there any other non-permanent solutions which brethren use for a little shade from the rays?
