A one-piece, integral metallic cantilever-mounted shelf unit (10) for kettle-type barbeque grills (14) is provided which provides a sturdy, stable work surface which can be readily attached and detached from a grill (14) without grill modification or use of fasteners. The shelf unit (10) includes opposed upper and lower panels (22, 24) interconnected by an outermost bight section (26). Mounting structure (28) in the form of a lip (30) and flange (34) form a part of the upper and lower panels (24, 26), respectively, and allow attachment of the shelf unit (10) to a grill unit (14) in a cantilever fashion while still permitting use of the grill lid. The upper and lower panels (24,26) are preferably provided with stamped depressions (36) and corresponding slots (38); this provides additional strength, allows liquid drainage and facilitates air cooling of the shelf unit (10). A series of hook bodies (44) are preferably formed in the lower panel (24), allowing storage of barbeque utensils.
