Installing Natural gas post BBQ

I'm not sure about your area, but in my area we have "the yellow jackets". It is a soft gas tubing which is allowed to be buried. There are regulations as to how deep they need to be buried. Check to see if your local codes allow the yellow jackets to be installed. It will come in various diametres (1/2", 3/4", 1")

I respectfully disagree. That is a very broad general statement. There are plenty of cases of gas line project is simple and low risk. There was a "T" at one of the gas line and I used that "T" to run another line to the location of my dryer. Nothing more than precut/prethread black pipes, gas valve, teflon tapes and the flexible gas hose to the dryer.

Running the pipe underground I would not do. I agree with that.

Disagree all you want...

Gas can and will have serious consequences if you make mistakes...

Thanks everyone.

When you have a post BBQ grill the line runs underground.
Tin lined sounds like the best bet with a flare (not a compression) fitting.
In my area Galvanized is okay, the gas company even installed a galavanized line.
Sorry to hear the "us" and "them" conflicts.
