    Are you sure it is propane? A lot of BBq use Butane.

    Yeah, def says LP Gas Cylinder. I think (have read elsewhere!) they cook to higher temp and are cleaner

    Got to this thread too late :mad:

    For future reference, the brand doesn't matter - it is all propane gas and it all comes from the same source.

    Don't get leisure gas bottles, they are propane but with a stupid fitting on top so they can charge you a stupid price for it. Buy a normal propane regulator ie: not leisure gas for about £5, swap it over and throw out the leisure gas one. Buy a 6kg propane bottle for cheaper than the leisure gas and without the absurd bottle charge.
