BBQ

Post by ronburgundy »

Hello all

I was wondering if any of you have experience of using either of these fold up bbqs:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Notebook-Grill-Po ... 414ed40d67

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Drop-And-Go-Charc ... 414f26dd0a

I like the idea of these as they should save a lot of space, but don't want to buy one if they are kack :wink:

Thanks in advance :ok

we have the top one. Works great as a bbq and even better as a wood burner by removing the grills. Nice and toasty!

If you want the top BBQ then get it cheaper from Firebox.com for £21.99

http://www.firebox.com/product/2087/Por ... ll?id=6788" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Applying the code VIPCUST-34TM at checkout gives you free standard citylink delivery of £4.50

Or if 10% off would be better for yuo order use NATWEST4523

E D I T: OR even better still £15 from Morrisons

We dont have either of those but alot of people are using the top ones now as a bbq then chucking wood on it after to make a great camp fire even on sites where camp fires arent allowed.

Number 1 gets my vote too. For an easy life don't bother putting coals in the bottom simply buy disposable barbecues from Lidl at £1.49 currently and there's no cleaning up required when you fold it away :wink:
