If anybody looking for a Thermopro Dual Probe as of today April 21st, Amazon are doing the TP08 (300 feet) for £33.99 or the TP08C (500 feet) £42.49 if interested https://www.amazon.co.uk/ThermoPro-TP08C-Wireless-BBQ-Thermometer/dp/B0869F61QZ

Liking this Elevations System for skewers more and more every time I use it. Tried some fish using Monkfish, Chorizo & Peppers today, haven't tried Monkfish on a BBQ/Grill before tastes really good grilled

Not up to Portugese quality, but still super tasty. British Sardines, gutted and cleaned by myself, marinated for 45 minutes and grilled just over 5 minutes each side at 425F, served with some grilled olive oil bread.

Seems to be a price increase of £20 over the last 2 years, had a name change and a different thermometer by the looks of it, otherwise specs seem the same. Still good value with the price increase though?

Yes if cooking it as an individual dish, I would most likely use it in the oven, but i have an upright spike that I cook Tacos Al Pastor or Shawarma regularly on my grill and only use half of the grill to do that. So if I'm doing that and I have guests round use the other half for a Tagine, Smoking the lamb or chicken separately on Smokeboost first, then cooking it as normal in the tagine alongside the spike on the grill, to offer a bit of choice to everyone as tortillas or flatbreads will be served with the spike dish also. My only concern is the spike needs to be done at around 400F (could drop it to 350F) which maybe a little hot to do a tagine cook really?

Can only speak for myself and the device I own, previously used to cold smoke in my ProQ Frontier before buying this cold smoking cabinet. I thought it was great I could get 12-14 hours out of the maze using the frontier and was generally happy with the results. But since buying this ProQ cabinet although the maze only lasts 5-6 hours, the quality of the smoke and flavour left on the meat is in a different league to what the Frontier produced with it. I put it down to better airflow amongst other things for the improvement and I'm much, much happier with the finished results even if it takes 2 mazes to cover the same amount of time as before, the smoke flavour produced is very different now and all the better for not having such restricted airflow, that I was used to before.

Thanks for the reply Ice, do you know how much you paid for yours? If £45 seems a fair price, think I'll pull the trigger on the Napoleon one I found. Did you find much liquid came out the top or do you cover the hole?, just wondering if putting it in drip tray during cooking is worthwhile to save any possible mess, if it does.

Thinking about investing in a Tagine for my Pellet Grill. Ruled out the ceramic based ones and looking at one with a cast iron base with a ceramic cone as I think it would be better suited for a grill and could still be used in an oven indoors. Item dimensions are L x W x H 27 x 27 x 21 centimetres, I realise liquid is a factor, but how many could I expect to feed with something this size Anyone any experience of doing this sort of cooking outdoors and is it a worthwhile investment? as looking at just shy of £45 for this one by Napoleon. But I've always enjoyed it as a meal at restaurants but never owned a Tagine before. Thanks

They've got more stock in now

I know what you mean 4042 worked flawlessly for me, got to go with it and trust them. Fingers crossed it's a step forward and not a step back

Sympathies Brian, horrible pain and discomfort from that, hope it corrects itself soon.

Got the impression, it's a decent little accessory for Gas Grills or camp fires etc.

New Firmware out 4054 for it. Seems to be mainly for Smokeboost from Webers description. Got a couple of racks of ribs on at the moment, put Smokeboost on for just over an hour, worked fine, when set 250F temp after Smokeboost showed it had been running at 180F Overall I though my startup seemed a little slower, but machine sounded much quieter fan wise (not tested at 600F yet). I got the impression there was more visible smoke out the back of the machine on Smokeboost since this update. Will update if any problems at end of cook, fingers crossed it works ok.

Please ignore, they've sold out of them now

Seen it on Amazon for £17.32 delivered, looks an interesting little contraption for the price to sit on top of your grill or campfire to cook meats, fish or vegetables. Anyone any experience of it as for the price it seems useful? Their product description Creates rotisserie style food without the mess; Smokes, Roasts and Steams Requires no added salts, fats, or oil to produce juicy, delicious results Cooks quickly, evenly and without moisture loss Includes bonus rack to cook delicate foods such as fish and vegetables Durable, porcelain-coated steel finish; dishwasher safe Video of it below

Thanks for that Wade they look ideal, my local one doesn't have any stock, so will get them delivered. I was expecting you to say 2 or 3 bags for each one. Think I'll get 4 of them to 2 for pellets and 2 for charcoal and see if that is enough

Thanks Wade, look good How many unopened 10kg bags of pellets can you get in them?

@Wadewill confirm. But a quick google search of CVBS01 You put (CVSB01) in your post? But CVBS01 comes up with the same description and model number that everyone else is selling right now including JTF Your Model number in Wilko description https://www.wilko.com/callow-vertical-bbq-smoker-grill/p/0513902 Gardenstreet under Header https://www.gardenstreet.co.uk/barbecues-c258/bbq-smokers-c245/callow-vertical-bbq-smoker-grill-p10751/s22030 UKfinefoods (official retailer) model number in URL https://www.ukfinefoods.co.uk/products/cvbs01/premium-charcoal-smoker-bbq-grill

Giving this a little bump as a reminder to people who may be interested. There is only a small window between May 17th When step 3 is confirmed and comes into play, where if it does up to 30 people can meet outdoors and when this event will be held on June 4-6th. Due to the organisation that will be needed for this event we will need to know if there is sufficient interest to hold this event at least a week before the proposed date of the tailgate. So if interested, but not 100% sure, please still express your interest on attending in this thread, as early as possible even if you change your mind nearer the time. If there isn't enough interest then we will probably look to hold this event next year.

Thanks for the links, got about 18 bags of pellets in the spare bedroom at the moment, buckets probably won't work for that amount. need a bit of outside storage. Was looking at this Keter High-Store + but as with everything it's out of stock everywhere except one place selling it for twice the rrp, that I can see. Seems well reviewed stays dry inside and has shelving and a base to store the pellets and charcoal and other bits and bobs.

Bought quite a few different varieties of bags of pellets to get me through the summer. I would ideally like to keep them loose in a container in a hopper or air and watertight containers. I don't have a garage or space in the shed for them, so would need to be stored outside, Would rather keep them seperate from the keiter storage cabinet I keep the charcoal in currently and not sure something like that would be totally moisture resistant for a period of time anyway. I gather pellets loose or in a bag need to be stored off the ground as well, so ideally something raised or on wheels would be good as well.

Shipping has to be added to that but a very good price for the UK especially if you can use the width of it for Briskets. Personally I would find that 30 inches a little wide for ribs or a pork butt and how I fold my paper round them and I would end up with too much wrapping round it once it is folded over and rolled, unless I cut it. Sure there would be a technique to do it though , if needed.

Definitely would need a decent butane torch to get them a light, if you don't already own one.

I know I've bought 12 bags (120kg) of pellets, 4 bags (60kg) of restaurant charcoal and 4 bags of 8kg Weber and 3 of bar-be-quick 15 kg bags briquettes in the last month to get me through the next x amount of months. First time I've cooked throughout the whole year, at least twice a week and minus temps outside, don't bother me or restrict me now. It's great fun and I can't resist a bargain. Think I'm going to have to buy a shed or one of those keter storage units now for the fuel. Bought an Amazon racking system for all the gadgets and stuff to store them in the spare bedroom, my wife just raises her eyebrows when another delivery arrives now 😄

Amazon US Amazon US (rather than Amazon Global) & Amazon EU has been set up since Brexit and all Vat and import duties should be included in the price as well as shipping, if they're not you will see it seperate in the listing or checkout as Amazon gather them all before final payment as they do their own import clearances through customs themselves now. It would be different if sold by a third party seller which this paper isn't, it's supplied and delivered by Amazon US That's how it should and has worked for me anyway. Had quite a few Weber and Lodge Cast iron bargains in the last month from Amazon EU and US and haven't had to pay anything but the price quoted in the listing.
