hi everyone

So glad to finally find a Britsh bbq website, as most of the other sites ive found all american..

I live in reading if anyone else out there does give my a shout as it would be good to meet up with some bbq brothers LOL,
At the mo have only got a weber kettle but it does the job, would love a wsm or another dedicated smoker, so if any ones got a pro q for sale Please inform me as ive got a BIG family and every is cussing as i cant have them all around at the same time as not enough grilling space....

have smoked my fair share of ribs, joints of pork or beef and then after that i had the bug...
got myself a maverick t72 ( think thats it, the new one) but havent got round to using it yet ( yeah i know LOL)
but cant wait to crack that bad boy open and grill me a perfect brisket (havent done one of those yet)

my freinds call me the bbq king LOL but im ready to take notes from the pros lol

Welcome to the forum Bascom,

Royal Q Competition BBQ Team are based in Reading and comprise of two likely lads from the North.

I'm sure that will bait them into a conversation.

There is a wanted section on the forum, I would post your desires on there, also it may be worth sending Toby a PM to see if he has any Excels left.

Again welcome, welcome, welcome!

yeah kinda gathered that from the shear number of us sites and forums LOL

but there aint no point asking on a us site where to buy your fuel, to get a reply like

" I always get ma fuel from K-mart "

thus glad found this site..
