Re: Using silicone and ash to increase insulation?

I think you've got an inventive idea, but at some point the food substance will go rancid.

What is it you're trying to achieve from insulating the BBQ? if your just looking for grilling methods / foods then it should be fine, but if you're looking for low and slow it may be worth keeping the ...

Re: Using silicone and ash to increase insulation?

Personally I would definitely NOT be insulating the inside of a BBQ with anything, and I would not eat from a BBQ that had been lined with silicone.

Jack Rabbits - Knutsford

Jack rabbits - an American style smoke house in the middle of knutsford.

Service 10 /10 - Cant fault it, good service and the staff are enthusiastic.

Food 9 /10 - The Texas brisket chilli was really nice, it carries a deep heat that takes a minute to arrive but doesn't overwhelm. I had the bag of ...

The "Pit Smoke House" Culcheth / Glazebury

I recently went to the Pit Smoke House and had a really good meal, here's my Review:

Service 10 / 10 these guys advertise the truth, they've not been in the hospitality business before, they are avid BBQ fans and they sell what they like to eat, and serve and treat you how they would like to be ...

BBQ Picnic

I received a portable BBQ for my birthday this year (nothing special just something cheap to see if I would use and enjoy it) and all I managed to do was go to Crosby Beach (Liverpool / Southport area) so I was wondering if anyone has any tips and any special places to enjoy a picnic bbq?
