Ya didn't pick a good night to have a Barbie eh, yeah that was quite a storm that hit tonight but it was building up since 4.30pm this arvo when it went through Camden. I'm near Ingleburn and it was flashing quite good there too. Don't let it discourage you, hang in there mate, charcoal cooking is d...

Yeah yeah yeah...... :roll: If BBQing red meat gives you cancer then it's important to follow some strict guidelines of chemo-therapy......first you start with BEER, then the next course will be a good bottle of red wine and if all else fails, a large bottle of Wild Turkey will do the trick. Take th...

Maybe i've made a small error, I stated that there were no ladies in here yet but then looked at a reply from one of my other posts and noticed that Alterego's name is Anne, so my appologies Anne...I stand corrected.

cheers

G'day Steve and Welcome to our merry men of BBQ, I can almost safely say that because I haven't seen any ladies in here yet but I'm sure they'll wander in eventually. hehe Yes mate, it's not a bad move to buy a slightly used Weber from ebay because you'll get it for less than half price and if you s...

Welcome JFK.....hope to see more of your posts and hope you enjoy being here. Things are a little slow at present as there are some members on vacation still (lucky them) but it'll kick in pretty soon I'm sure. As Phil requests, please feel free to tell us a bit about yourself and the Kind of BBQ-in...

Oops, slight correction

I first put the food grate on then the pan of water ontop the food grate over the fire....aaahh now that sounds better

Yeah I might drop them a line to see if anyone is still selling them here but with a little bit of organising, there is a similar way to get similar results and i did it the time when I first tried the Minion Method and acheived a 6 hour cook without having to replenish the coals. I just got some or...

G'day Pete, Thanks for posting that link, they look just the shot and I may just order one and that upper food grate looks good too so I think both of them maybe coming my way soon.(gotta ask the accountant..err wife first :wink: ) It'll be well over $100 Aussie dollars with postage but still a lot ...

Yeah it beats me why Bunnings don't stock heatbeads because when i see places where heatbeads are selling like service stations and fruit & vegie shops etc and the fact that Bunnings generally has a pretty big BBQ and Outdoor furniture area. I will say though that I picked up a 4kg bag of redhea...

Hi Folks, Earlier in this subject thread I told you guys about pulling up to a service station in Sydney and that he had heaps of 4kg bags displayed in his window. I pulled up there again yesterday afternoon and got talking to the Indian chap behind the counter and we got talking about BBQing (of co...

I didn't mind the lump charcoal in the 3kg box as it burnt hot but it didn't last long and I found I had to top up a couple of times wheres the Redheads burn hot but seem to keep going and going. I presently mix most of lump charcoal 50/50 with heatbeads mainly due to the expense of charcoal. It's g...

From the company who makes REDHEAD matches, they are now selling their Tubed charcoal in BUNNINGS stores and from what I've tried so far,it it seems to do a reasonable job. I think it's made in Malaysia and uses Malaysian wood and it's shaped like thick tubes which is good in a way because they are ...

Yes we could do that Petesque and supporting charities would be great but we still have to get this idea up & running and nobody will support a half baked idea right at this given point in time with global crisis very much on the agenda. One of the biggest problems are free promotion, free adver...

G'day Petesque, Firstly mate, welcome to the forums from downunder, the Aussie BBQ Forums and hope you enjoy your stay. I have been poking around some of the American forums for some time now and read alot about BBQing Hogs,beef,venison and turkeys and chickens but this is the first I've heard about...

Yeah Phil, I beleive you are right and what both of have said before regarding people even with great intentions, like everyone today are time poor through the week and any avail time is spent with loved ones, friends and family. I said all along though that it's going to be very difficult to get an...
