I am building an outdoor fireplace with a pergola. Does anybody have any suggestions on what outdoor fireplace to buy? Should I build a masonry fireplace or buy a prefab? I am definitely going with wood burning.

We do a lot of outdoor units. They are all SS and can come in about $15,000 cheaper than a masonry unit. Depending on the finishes you choose. http://m.heatilator.com/Products/Montana-Wood-Fireplace.aspx

Doesn't anybody else think that burning perfectly good firewood outside is a waste? I can see in Alabama, but Indiana?

I burn pine hemlock poplaror other stuff With low btus or that is big and ugly and wont fit in the stove well. I really don't have a problem with either indoor or out door fire places but i do think they for the most part are a waste of fire wood. But if people enjoy them good for them.
And for all you coastal members, I burn oak and hickory in my outdoor firepit!
My outdoor fireplace is made of concrete blocks and It is $15,000.00 cheaper than a lot of things.
$15,500.00 things.

Not singling you out, but by this logic, all the stumps, rounds, logs I see in the woods as I drive are being wasted too.
No because they will decompose and go back into the ground as nutrients for future trees and plants
