British BBQ Society Forums

Hello all

Long time meat lover, Short time smoker and forum viewer.

I have been BBQing for a long time and a great lover of making maranades, rubs and anything to spice the meat up for a bbq! So I built a fair size brick bbq/smoker last year and i've been smoking meat ever since.

It will be interesting to read different bbqing ideas and methods from the UK.

Nice barbie!

Top job mate! Where did you get the all the hardware ,doors etc? I'm a bricklayer n plan to build something similar.

That's impressive, not often you see something like that in the UK

Cheers guys.

Well I didn't want to mess around!

Bricks and blocks all came from a local builders yard. The inside is just built with normal concrete blocks and then I used a pack of bricks for the outside. A friend helped with the brick work, hence it looks so neat!
The roof was a pain and I wish I did it slightly different so I could make it neater but I have a plan for that now.
I found a company who supplied all the metal for a rock bottom price of £100 and I had some help from my old man to fabricate the doors and latches. The bottom door has 2 latches so you can leave it open slightly to let some air in for the fire.

Teamed up with a maverick probe it cooks really well and I can fit shed loads of meat in there
