Stumpy Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Have seen loads of posts on different sites, with reduced items in different stores. Today I was in The Range in Basildon, and instead of reducing items , they were putting all the items on a pallet ready to be returned, god knows where. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Could be a good thread, it is the time for BBQ sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 There were some unbelievable deals on Heat Beads posted in CWS over the past few days. £2 a bag... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Some bargains to be had in Homebase, although they do seem to be clearing the big stuff out completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Today at or local B&Q offering end of season "reductions" on Weber Kettles. Unfortunately they were still more expensive than you can buy elsewhere online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Not one for the purists, but popped into Homebase today, and they have their version of the Weber 47, for £29.99. I know it's not a Weber, but for that price, it would be a good back up/starter unit or good for extra capacity at the WoodSmoke Forum National Smokers Weekend. Might get one, as I do not have this type of smoker, and they are certainly easier to transport to The National! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Might very well be a good shout, as you know I've had some good results from my £10 second hand bargain kettle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BareBQ Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Only found out recently that Homebase is no longer owned by Sainsburys/Argos. Soon to be named after it's new owners, Bunnings. Maybe that's why there's a bigger than usual clearout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stumpy Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 Keep reading posts on different sites that Waitrose keep reducing their Heatbeads. Got to be quick though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Seen people with Trolley loads @ £2.00 a bag, can't seem to find them myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumpy Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 Same problem here. It's a conspiracy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 The conspiracy plot thickens, popped into my local Homebase as I was passing just to pick up a Weber rip off (Jumbuck) got none left. And they have reorganized the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Managed to get a Jumbuck 57cm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Excellent, will be interesting to see how well it cooks. Hope we'll get a review soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 This is going to be a learning curve for me, as I have NEVER used this type equipment. Always thought they were for Burger Flippers! Will first try it as supplied, then will look at attaching the Q Master. Results to follow.

valve90210 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 That's a good plan I think, get to grips with how it all works then make it more advanced! I'm waiting for my Q Master Lite to make an appearance, which I also want to use with my non-weber kettle. My initial thinking was a metal plate to slide in place of the ash catcher with the fan below but of course that would result in blowing ash everywhere... I'm still thinking the same input location as I don't really want to drill great big holes in the thing but with some sort of metal ducting to stop ash dropping down onto the fan and to direct the air in the direction of the coals...

Smokin Monkey Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 As mentioned above, managed to get two Jumbuck 57cm, which I will be using at The National Smokers Weekend, dates etc to follow shortly. I also managed to pick up a Cowboy Stove after much searching and a tip off that a store had two left. Cost 34.99 reduced from 109.00 Had a quick play with it, sealed up some gaps etc and it's not bad.. Can see this coming to the Smokers weekend as well, Corned Beef might be back on the menu, along with Brisket Chilli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 That looks like a cute bit of kit! I look forward to seeing it in action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Any other photos of it in action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 No not yet, when I get back I will take some photos. I have been told they are very good for keeping Pulled Pork etc at events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
