ribs have been in foil for an hour now and starting to shrink back, i've basted them in cider again and put them back in the UDS for another hour. kielbasa also got foiled an hour ago, it is a lovely golden colour now and firm so it's double wrapped and put in a cool bag. belly pork needs at least ...

the wife and i decided to get one last bbq in before the autumn, so we've got about 15-20 round this afternoon/evening.

thought i'd get one last bbq in before the end of the summer. should be around 20 adults and a few kids so i'm wondering what to prepare. i'll grill a few home made burgers and some chicken kebabs and for the smoker i've got 3 racks of ribs, some home made keilbasa, a lump of belly pork or a ...

whatever paint is there will get burned off after your first run, and then it'll be susceptible to oxidization and rust. best bet is to remove the outer paint with a fire and then a flap disk, and then give it a coat of hight temp or bbq paint.

it's very tasty, but the very middle isn't ...

ASDA's often have roasting tins a £1 each if that's cheap enough

i bought a new one for the kitchen and relegated the old one.

so i rubbed down the inside of the drum with veg oil and then loaded 5kg of briquettes into the basket. got it going with a blow torch and then placed it into the drum ...

the showers held off for long enough for me to mask up and give it a couple of coats of bbq paint. i just need to find a cheap baking tray to use for the ash catch tray and then season the inside with veg oil before doing a dry run to get the temp set ok.

had a result with the firebasket. got hold of a chromed shopping basket, cut and shut it to be square. welded the handle on and jobs a good 'un. made a frame with castors for the drum to sit in and also cut a few M8 nuts in half and welded them in to support the rails for hanging sausages from. they ...
