    recommend a bbq for a 60 guest party ?

    A mate's having a housewarming party at the end of the month and asked if I knew of a half oil drum bbq he could use. Gonna be burgers, sausage and chicken leg kind of stuff for about 60 guests over a couple of hours. He's not into q so doesn't have a clue what to get. I had a quick look online...

    Philistines !

    Took some pulled pork I'd smoked over beech and cherry to a friends barbecue to try and educate them away from the typical British bbq fodder of blackened burgers that wouldn't be out of place on an ice hockey rink. One of the girls had some in a brioche bun and exclaimed "OMG, this is...

When he gets there, he sees a big crowd all chanting his name, an orchestra playing heavenly music and Saint Peter beckoning him. He thinks this is all unexpected but he likes it. He says to Saint Peter "I'm really pleased...

    fire basket shaker ?

    Making a start on my UDS and doing a quick search regarding fire baskets showed up a few issues with ash choking out the fire. Has anyone fitted an external rod to allow you to agitate the basket or would that just introduce a lot of ash and dust onto the contents ?

    Weber Go Anywhere

    So we went off to the south Lakes over the Easter weekend and I'd packed the Go Anywhere in the camper, I bought it specifically for the camper due to it's compact size but took some grief from Val as it's about the fourth one ( and the most expensive ) that we've had in the camper. Tried those...

    what to do with my windowsill chilli plant ?

    I got an unknown variety chilli plant at a charity plant sale back in May. Popped it in the greenhouse and watched the chillis appear. They started off black, turned green and then red. They're about the size of a man's pinkie and are pretty hot. As the growing season came to an end here, I...

    the best laid plans........

    I was getting some material together to build my 20 gallon patio reverse flow smoker when an unscheduled heart attack decided it was gonna take priority ! Anyway, a few days in hospital and a stent seems to have sorted that out, but the medication fair slows you down to the point of inactivity...
