The Great Galvanised Debate

Just found this on ebay and it made me wonder why I was bothered about using anything galvanised when I built my UDS.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CHARCOAL-BBQ- ... 2350911e36

Re: Alternative to expanded metal for fire basket

Even more impressed now.pork belly was absolutley delicious and was so easy to cook on the uds.can't wait to do a pork shoulder now and maybe some meaty beef bones that I saw in Morrisons.I'm guessing they're just beef ribs.looked nice though

Re: Alternative to expanded metal for fire basket

it's just plain steel,thin steel but just plain steel.ironically,I bought a charcoal chimney in Tesco today for £6 and when I checked on their website for reviews,it says it's made of zinc.managed to use the mesh for two fire baskets as it's two feet wide.
