After my succesful first BBQ at the weekend, I'm now on the lookout for a 'real' BBQ.
Has to be charcoal, would like a lid on it, not too big, but not too small.
Had a quick look today in B&Q but didn't see anything I liked. They were either too big or too rickety.
Found this one in Argos for £20, got some good reviews and seems about the right size, but just hasn't got a lid and would have to spend another tenner on a cover.


Any of you fanatical BBQ people out there got any suggestions/advice.

we once had this bbq it was good our bbqs only last through out the summer though long story lol

Do you need a cover or do you have shed etc to put it in once finished with?

Is it round in middle maybe a bit to small, is there 3 0r 4 of you ? or maybe we are just greedy lol.
I personally dont like the round ones prefer rectangle shaped.

Laura - hope the side effects wear off soon x

BS - hope you have a great time tomorrow

it's getting warm again now! just when I wanted to start cooking but that might have to wait a bit now

sfh, there are 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 kids. Have a garage but already full of carp!:rolleyes:
We are hopefully getting a summerhouse for the bottom of the garden soon (with magnum vouchers and amazon help) so it could go in there.
I guess for £20, even if it lasts just one summer its not bad value.
Am on a mission now, I know what I'm like. I want it now!:rotfl:

Its warming up a bit here too, sun has been in & out all day, was quite warm earlier on way to docs but sun kept going in.

Seems to be staying out for a bit now. I do hope this isnt the last we see of summer lol!

I really really don't want it to be hot on the 27th June - the rest of the summer can be wonderful!

I still need to find a short long-sleeved white cardigan so if anyone has any ideas of where I can find one please let me know!
