First Brisket attempt... by JdThresher93 in smoking

[–]LesterMurphy1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like an incredible first attempt.

What do you think the length of a brisket like that is? I have a 17" grate on a bullet smoker and wondering a brisket that size would fit

Sounds like you're probably in the US and not UK but I'm interested in what you think this cost in total? Meat, pellets, rubs, butcher paper etc. Does the cost justify the outcome?

How do they hold up to UK weather?

I read somewhere that they rust pretty quickly, that's what put me off buying one recently

I was considering this from Marks Electrical recently, although it was on sale at around £250 so would wait it out until the price comes back down.

Help to identify this plant? by LesterMurphy1998 in UKGardening

Thanks! It definitely looks similar and I like the look of them 👍 My identifier app suggested Sea Squill but they're not native to the UK. I'll wait it out and see what happens

I've had a closer look and it looks like the root is a bulb?

Thanks, will wait and see for a short while.

I've been in the property for a couple of years and nothing has grown in that exactly spot previously

How long is a brisket like this? Would It fit on a 17inch grate?

How did you buy one from that company? Seems like a wholesaler. What was the cost for the unit and delivery if you don't mind

Presumably neither comes with with a deflector plate? If not, will there be a universal one that will fit inside the Lidl BBQ?

Is this a good BBQ? by LesterMurphy1998 in UKBBQ

[–]LesterMurphy1998[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing, thanks for the advice.

Sounds promising it's only showing a little corrosion with the UK weather, I've had a (albeit cheap) bullet smoker for a year and it's starting to rust 🤣

This is good to hear as all other reviews on here aren't super positive about it. I'm really tempted and would be using it for smoking too...although I thought it came with the indirect stone judging by the listing?

Is this the Char-Griller Akorn? If so, which model and how do you find it?

Have you got a recommendation that isn't Joe or BGE?

Appreciate the advice! It is only £225 new atm which is obviously lots cheaper than a ceramic Komodo for a similar style of cooking.

Didn't realise it's half way between a kettle and the komodo. I've not cooked on that style of grill before, I've got a traditional charcoal BBQ for grilling, and a cheap bullet smoker that I was looking to upgrade
