hmmm, slighty more confused than when I started this thread!?!

Dont mind flat pack, even my dim witted approach to DIY can cope with that. There is a place where the neighbours (not the ones that complained) backs on to the side of my garden and they have a brick built shed. I was largely thinking ...

Looks like a decent solution to me. That said the flaws that you guys point out are reasonable. My issue is that I simply won't build something myself. I don't really have the tools, the know how or the inclination to build it so I need a ready made solution or to find some more cash so that I can ...

There are a couple of areas that have a concrete base. One was probably a nice patio a couple of decades ago and one might have been a greenhouse. So base is good. The debate with the other half has moved on to where I am going to put it based on irritating the neighbours with smoke floating in ...

I only have one proper smoker (my trusty ProQ) and am keen to experiment with fish at some point. However I had heard somewhere that it is not a good idea to smoke fish in the same smoker as you smoke meat as it can affect the flavour in a not good way. Anyone done it? Anyone have any advice?

Well my brother is a sparky so outdoor sockets should only cost me materials and a few beers. It did occur to me that at some point I will want a forced air system so that is a great shout.

In terms of area, this something I am currently in negotiations with the other half over. I think it will ...

Are you competing? Did you compete last year?

With Xmas just been and gone I asked the missus to gather funds from anyone wanting to give me a "present" so that I can build the perfect area/shelter for smoking in the kind of rubbish weather we regularly get in the UK. So the question I throw to the floor is what should my perfect BBQ area ...

We have committed to Bristol Grillstock again this year, any additional dates will be hard won with the other half but I will have a longing look at the events pages anyway...

This is handy as I was eyeing up the mavericks but noticed this issue when I tried too use my mates mavericks with my ProQ when we did a charity cook at work last summer. Bit of a design flaw in the eyelets if you ask me as just about everyone with anything to say on the subject seems to recommend ...
