You need a big fireproof bucket, a grille over the top, and some legs to
support it. How you build these is up to you, and what tooling and time
you have to hand.

You need nothing more than this. Anything else is mere flummery.

Do you need all that for an outdoor grill?

If he hasn't a supply of old oil drums or doesn't trust them (polyester
resin drums perhaps that need to roasted clean) he can knock a pit up
out of concrete blocks or if he fancies himself, make it permanent with
bricks and mortar.

A length of steel mesh would be the only expense if he can find a dump
of old bricks.

If he wants the steel drum style without the steel drums, perhaps he can
find a couple of car bonnets or boots to make the fire tray and the
grille.

Some more ideas on he http://bbq.about.com/
