Health and Safety

Today I saw this on the net and thought I'd do a bit about staying safe while enjoying a bit of roofless grilling. Why even have one of them? The job it does on the grill is cosmetic at best and in this case could have killed someone. If you chuck your grills on while the fire is burning in before cooking, the flames and heat will destroy any living microbe on that grill rendering it completely clean without doing anything. Just because its black, doesn't mean its dirty. Bloody hell. I bet these same people have loads of allergies and poor immune systems.

Easy as that.

Building the Smoker Part 2

The build is still progressing and is so far going well. Last week, we added fire bricks to the fire chamber. Here you can see them through the hatch:

Last Thursday I was in the pub when I got talking to a mate about the smoker and how I need some pipe for it.

Rastaboat

Remember that £30,000 affront to the spirit of outdoor cookery? Here's how it's done properly. A mate of mine from work and his mates did this, the Rasta boat.

They entered it in a regatta of some kind up in Scotland and came third. Well done lads! This is the real spirit of aquatic grilling. A handsome craft  knocked up by mates in a few weeks complete with authentic Jamaican thatched roof, cans of Red Stripe and a little bucket barbie to get the jerk chicken done on. Don't think it cost £30,000 somehow though and all the better for it.
