Yes! never heard of it before reading this thread - I'll look it up. Thanks, yes Id wondered about that. I thought something designed to sit over a hot flame and cook food probably couldn;t go too wrong but it was rather a rushed purchase - the cake tins in morrisons were too big and my pork shoulder was in the fridge already 🙂 I will take a look around for alternatives but for £4 that let the games commence!

New member here also, having been convinced by this thread to pick up a little egg at Lidl. I didn;t want to wait for a deflector to be delivered so I picked up a fairly chunky little aluminium non-stick saucepan at Morrisons and screwed off the head. It fits nicely , seems to be working well, and cleans easily, but I am only resting on metal wire presently so I need to fashion some neat clips like some of you have done. I like to jump straight in so 7hr Pulled pork shoulder joint and 6hr fall-apart lamb shoulder cooked so far. The egg just sits at 130-140 for hours and hours with a few chunks of restaurant charcoal, it is incredible!
