I don't think he is,fancy some of the best ribs Canada has to offer?

Just found this thought I'd share it,maybe you will get a chuckle

So I've just noticed this,it's a chip in the enamel at first I thought it was the handle that's been over tightened but that's not the cause,I know there is the potential of enamel coming away when ever you have the coal resting on the side but I don't think that's happened here either,I'm wondering...

What part sounds like a joke? I don't like the wood handles, I've got replacement plastic handles, and want to get rid of the wood ones which are apparently very popular with Weber enthusiasts. And for what it's worth, I've just woken up and have a bunch of messages from people on Gumtree wanting t...

Happy BBQ-ing, Paul

Yep same I use those sistemer tubs on wheels,no issues with dampness I'm qld also

You were spot on,I didn't want or expect anything out of this,got an email from heat beads today they want my old chimney back and are sending me a replacement,when my new one comes they asked me to send mine back in the same box,pretty happy about that. I have found the Heatbeads customer service t...

Just rivets missing, I'd just grab a cheapo pop rivet gun and pop in some new ones. If the holes are enlarged just ream them to the next size up and presto! Thought of that,problem is there is a spacer between the heat guard and the chimney itself to protect your hand from the heat,I've got a rivet...

Take a picture of it and send to Heatbeads, they did a recall ages ago, you may have got a dodgy one. Mine has been good for about 3 years, it was a replacement one Yeah mate cheers,thanks to google I found that recall but it's dated 2010 I sent them an email also contacted them via Facebook,I'm no...

Yeah it's a bit of a shame,but I can see why,could be a good time soon to pick up some weber bits and bobs on clearance though

Ok I knew I've seen them around,this is my local shop,I just rang them about spare parts if I need them for the old weber. They sell the weber chimneys $39.95 so it's not masters but I knew I've seen them. http://www.barbequesandmore.com.au/gallery_category.php?gCat=13&page=2 It's not listed on ...

just rang him I'm going over at 12 to have a look,I'll post pics later it does look like it would clean up

You bet I'm replacing it,I'd hate to think the burns you'd get with a whole chimney of coal landing on you,forget it! It's not even 6months old and I'm in the process of firing off an email to them,I do use it a lot being in qld we cook more outside than in especially this time of year,I'm pretty su...
