Camping

I really want a Weber Go Anywhere BBQ, but..

..they are no longer on sale in the UK, except by special order at £79!! Shock With added P&P.

I have identified it as the perfect portable BBQ. Much more compact and packable than the Smokey Joe portable which are round and the legs don't collapse.

The Go Anywhere is quite a sophisticated little beast, with adjustable air vents below the charcoal line, a lid (with adjustable vents) so that you can cook things U.S BBQ style (like slow BBQ oven rather than just a grill), is v good quality enamelled steel so won't rust, my sister's has lasted 12 years and is going strong - they don't warp or rust or go cockly.

It's a lot of cash, isn't it, for a portable BBQ?

Go-Anywhere or here

mmmm, but it has a kind of 'classic' feel that I like...

dither...angst...hanker...

DP (BBQ guru - owner of 6 bbqs) has both and much prefers the Go Anywhere.

It also packs more easily in the car for camping.

HTH!!

That's it, exactly, it will pack more easily into the car.

My current foldong BBQ is a bit warped and rusty and the rivets sheered off this summer. I loved my 'whitstable bucket' but they take up loads of room...

Stinky - where did your DP get his Go-Anywhere, and does he think it would be worth me paying £79 plus p&p?

Can't remember where he got it from - we've had it a couple of yrs. He would always yes it's worth £79, but then he's slightly obsessed!

I think there are even special tools you can buy that are just the right size to store inside it as well.

Right, special tools, that's it!

My Camping Gadgetry this year has amounted to a bendy light £3 each, perfect as reading lights so I think I can jutify £79 as the end of this year and beginning of next's camping indulgence.

Are you me, six weeks ago?! Smile I decided over the summer holidays that this was the perfect barbecue, stalked eBay for a couple of weeks and eventually got one for £50, although 'brand new in box' ones were going for well over £100 at the time. There was somewhere in Norfolk I found that is going to start stocking them again next year, but I decided I wanted the wooden handles instead of the plastic, so am very happy with my second hand one. It is, indeed, a fab bbq. DH has been very impressed with it. We got a Weber chimney to go with it - would highly recommend. Makes starting it hassle free.

There is a 'Buy It Now' new one on e bay atm for £130 + P&P, and a second hand one currently at £48, with 2 days to go...

If only I knew someone coming back from the states with v little luggage...

I have found the Norwich supplier, too, dodod. I think it might be the way to go.

I'm glad you are pleased with yours.

It has arrived! I love it. It has instructions for using the fact that it has a lid to cook whole chickens.

An even better deal: here because the P&P is free.

We used to have one of these years ago and gave it away (my fault really). Anyway it is DH's birthday soon so I'm going to buy one.

Yippee it arrived. Unfortunately it arrived in the Weber box so DH saw it. I had better think of something else for his birthday now!
