Hi All

I need to get some Fuel and having read as much as I can on this Forum on that subject, and having sampled the delight of using Heat Beads as obtained from Toby, I need to find a supplier of Heat Beads or perhaps Big K (restaurant grade lumpwood)???

Of course I have also been trawling through the Interweb to work out an economical supply, rather than be lazy and ask for every question I have to be answered here; But I wonder if anyone has an opinion on best and most economical suppliers? I presume with so many competition teams here that there will be preferred suppliers? Was there also talk of Heat Beads becoming a sponsor of TBBQS??

Cheers

I've just received an order directly from Big K. They are always really helpful on the phone and the delivery cost is very reasonable for the amount I order. Have a look at their website BIG K and give them a call, you won't be disappointed ;)

All the best,

Lee

I don't know where you are based but Beds BBQ supplies stock heat beads, and I think they run their mail order business over the winter
