scott C is an unknown quantity at this point
We are completing our first built in grill. First thought was to use gauged bluestone as the top. Turns out my wag. estimate was off and its pretty expensive. Secondly I want to get away from seams between the bluestone peices. So my thought was to pour concrete.

Has any one had any experience doing them? My main concerns are the edges and the coloring. Am I best off adding color to the concrete mix itself ( dark grey with light grey) or dusting the top like i have seen done for stamping concrete.

As far as the edges go I suppose once the concrete starts to harden I can remove the form and work the edge?

Also is there a special mix of concrete I should use obviously one with small aggregate but anything else.
