Hi
I bought a half barrel BBQ a while back and have only just got around to using it; when I bought the damned thing I didn't realise that not having a lid was going to limit me so much.
So without buying a new BBQ, I'm trying to figure out what my options are for cooking things a bit slower and keeping it going for longer. I'm wondering if doing something like covering the food with e.g. a wok lid would work? I know it's not the same as a proper lid, but would it at least help?
Or if that's a lost cause, do I need to go further and try and improvise a lid out of something? I don't really have anything lying around that I can use, and I'd worry about doing a good enough job...
Here's a pic of the BBQ I have (not mine, but it's the same model):
