Charcoal bbq and fire pits.

Picked up a Weber one touch gold plus kettle on Wednesday. Had some nice slow cooked lamb chops yesterday with gravy. Decided not to marinate the meat but just have a smokey flavour by adding some wood chips. Came out great
Not going back to beads ever, charcoal has its own flavour and signature. Will try a low and slow pork over lumped charcoal snake this weekend.
Any one else use charcoal bbq? Let's share some recipe and tips

I had McDonald's for dinner last night.
The excellent combination of the Big Mac sauce and the patty along with the cheese provided me with a full flavour burger. The chippies were excellent too.
Tip - buy the value meal and for $20 you can get two big macs, two cheese burgers, 4 small chips and 2 medium drinks, 2 small ones, and some chicken nuggets.
Tops.

I remember seeing a clay chimney at your place. Do you still use it? I would love to have a clay chimney and make pizzas.
Weber build quality is brilliant and they last forever. Awesome customer support as well.
A friend recently opened a business with his brother to make and sell charcoal and woodchips, so he is my preferred supplier right now.

Useless f**ken thing
Great pizzas, but it took 3 hours to get to cooking temp, and I'd spend all night in front of it shuffling the pizzas around...
So I broke it

Ouch!! So much rage

Three hours is bit too long though. Try making a pizza on your webber.

Mrs loves fish, but I hate seafood

I have managed to ban seafood from my house for the last 5+ years, but I have a feeling I am going to lose that battle soon.
Last night's chicken drumsticks:

Ready to eat in one hour:
