...I'm a bit of a bbq freak. In fact come the summer british gas lose one hell of a lot of money, and I've even been known to bbq in the winter; well you don't have to eat outside just because you cooked outside do you? My first experience of Weber was in the 80s when I bought one of the round ones from an American PX in Germany whilst serving in the army. It was a while before Weber hit the Uk. They do tend to be a bit expensive, but believe me the quality is worth every penny. The above bbq lasted me over 12 years and would have lasted longer had I not kept forgetting to cover it up.

One would say but Ughh Sunday roast tasting like charcoal but that’s not the case at all. By using an oven roasting pan with a lid, all Smokey flavors are eliminated.

Advantages: Packaging from 100% well - managed forests
Disadvantages: Not enough charcoal, some go out, expensive

...Being a bank holiday weekend we decided to make use of the extra day and went camping in the lake district this weekend. Having enough things to clean while camping and cooking we decided, as we always do, to not add a BBQ to this list and take disposables. We boght these before going and got five of them from Asda this is the product I will now review. CONSTRUCTION They are, like most disposable BBQ's, rectangular in shape and 12" X 10" in size, they are constucted from foil and make up tray which is the BBQ base this contains the charcoal and some lighting paper, then there is a metal gauze on top which makes up the cooking surface. This is then placed in a cardboard box and wrapped in celophane. On the front is a piece of A4 paper which has the product name on it and boasts that the packaging comes from 100% well - managed...
