Johnlfc Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Hi All found my way here from a recommendation from a member on another forum (reef tanks) as we were discussing BBQ. i like to BBQ and im trying to learn how to be effective at it! I’ve not find much aside from standard fare burgers chops steak sausage and the likes however want to get to next level. i love a good marinade or dry rub as feelit really does completely change what your cooking. i don’t have any fancy kit but recently ( not even set up yet) bought a new gas bbq only small 2 burner plus a side, a round kettle style charcoal which I’m also going to adapt into tall oven so I can hang meat. Finally got a wood fired pizza oven. All cheap shop bought stuff but at my level should give me plenty of options for outdoor cooking. Just need s good summer 😀 anyway going to have a nosey round but wanted to drop in and say Hello 👋 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnlfc Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) Thanks for the welcome fellas. I’m not handy it’s just taken me about 2 hours to put together a little gas cooker. Still got the charcoal and pizza oven to do 😂 god help me trying to adapt the kettle one but to be fair it is a basic design.

sotv Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) Welcome to the forum John. I am sure if you can set up and maintain a reef tank, Setting up a few BBq's will be no problem for you. Edited April 12, 2019 by sotv 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnlfc Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 You never saw me doing the gas one 😂 spent an hour claiming it was missing the feed for the side burner only to find it was wound up to the opposite side 🙈 lets hope the pizza one is easier 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icefever Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Looking good, wouldn't take much to bang a roof over that area, just to cover in case of the British weather??? Ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
