    Add a counterweight to the back of the lid. Make it stick out beyond the hinges so you're not lifting the full weight of the lid when you open it. Get the weight and geometry right and the lid will only lift so far and no further because the counterweight has rotated downward and hits the back of the body of the BBQ.

    Like so:
