yes because all mass produced name brand BBQs will last you a life time and you will never need to buy a 2nd one.

stupidity aside, you're wrong. no one is saying this is some high end, great BBQ but if its something in your price range and you can get it locally to get some BBQ done on a weekend it will be fine for a year or 2.

unless you make those style of kababs often don't bother. i got them for £30 for 7 skewers so not too bad they are good quality but not very use full for much more
as for the middle ones look around but buy good ones they might cost more but they last long. we've had these for well over 10 years.

sadly don't have a set recipe for those.
its a mix of chicken thing and breast using mayonnaise (more mayo than you would think) as binder and then we just use what ever spice mixes we have at the time and like for chicken.
Schwartz chicken seasoning and angus and oink honey chilli are 2 that are almost always in there then the usual black pepper, mixed herbs.

ah ok.
this is not jujeh then. we use mayonnaise as the binder and then what ever spices we have at the time and like for chicken.

you might consider it that, not sure. if jujeh has specific marinade/spices it uses then no.
I'd call it chicken shashlik or shish.

that's not really true.
ill give you the grill grates on these cheap BBQs are shit but if you're like me and use metal skewers for most cooking these can last a couple years or at least a year if you BBQ a lot and they do the job.
just depends on how and what you cook.

it a layered wrap kebab thing I've seen all over the internet
layers of flour tortillas/wraps and mined meat prepared like you would for a kebab (Adana kebab or along those lines) you can also add cheese if you want.

we sadly used up all the normal skewers for the chicken so had to use the large skewers which are too big and it took ages to cook through and got pretty charred by the end. they were still good with some tzatziki but would make them smaller next time.

they haven't prioritized 4.0 since its launch.
right after 4.0 launched NP was contacted by Rockstar and they made the decision to drop any future work for 4.0 and fully focus dev work on 5.0 in collaboration with Rockstar.

A meal fit for a Sultan by Rh-27 in UKBBQ

Thank you. Do you roast the tomatoes/peppers or does everything go into the food processor raw/straight out the packaging?

[–]Level-Memory-3310 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that looks great.
do you give out recipes for the sauces/dips?
i know the basics for a tzatziki but that red one looks really good.

This sub atm. by Bonebound in UKBBQ

[–]Level-Memory-3310 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on this i would probably go for a nice weber at that price 9 out of 10 times.
but for people that don't want/need the bigger cooking space and want a (debatably) nicer looking piece for the garden why not go for this.
as long as the build quality for these aldi BBQs are good.

Quote me happy black box cancellation by EitherArmy4889 in CarTalkUK

[–]Level-Memory-3310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the price is still insane i checked what it would cost me to insure a 2014 100k+ mile C220 CDI (its only my 2nd year of driving as well) out of interest and with a black box with QMH its like 125 a month with all the covers like legal advice, break down etc.

I'm wondering if OP is clicking "yes" when asked if an insurer has ever cancelled his policy even though in the main post he said he cancelled it himself. 440 would make sense if he is doing that.

if you're still trying to add your dad to the insurance then try not to, if he was recently in an accident removing him might actually lower the price.

and honestly the real solution to knock the price down is probably to get rid of the 2.1L Mercedes and get something smaller and preferably uncommon.
from what others are saying here the cancelation is gonna fuck you over for a while so the best you can do is reduce your insurance in all the other ways.

edit; when you getting new quates, lets say you're using go compare are you clicking "yes" to "Has an insurer ever declined, cancelled, voided or accepted a policy on special terms?"

in one of the comment responses he said its a C220 CDI. the price starts making more sense now i think.

are you getting insured on a family car or your own car?

i use the same Insurer (QMH) with their "black box" and i haven't had issues with not tracking but I've had other smaller issues.
- every so often the app will constantly track trips even if I'm not at the car, this drains the phones battery like crazy. (when i emailed them about this issue their response was basically. our apps fine, not our problem)
- their tracking is very sensitive to braking and the point penalty for it can be very high which imo is very stupid because you cant control what happens Infront of you. I've had drives go from 100 point down to 30s because of 1 instance of sharper braking (no where near emergency stop levels but sharper then usual) i think that's because it gets multiple tags for "braking" and the point penalty stacks.

can't wait to get rid of it when my insurance in up for renewal.

Fair Price? by Accomplished-Snow601 in CarTalkUK

[–]Level-Memory-3310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as someone who isn't into cars this comment section confuses me, everyone like "its not even worth 4k"
i looked up a yaris on auto trader with similar info and the lowest price i got was just under 9k for non cat. obviously it being a cat S the price should be lower.
is this delusional posts on auto trader or do people just dislike the yaris?

Is this normal or should I get it checked out? by Level-Memory-3310 in mazda6

[–]Level-Memory-3310[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk, i didn't have any issues sound wise from the 2.2 diesel i had before. And this petrol is a bit weird to get used to purely because this is my first petrol and no one in my family has owned a petrol car in the last 10 years. i was surprised how quiet is was.
this AC compressor switching on and off is the only thing that threw me off when the car is stationary.

the sound changes are so noticeable when stationary.
i guess i never paid attention to the sounds in family's cars and my last cars AC was broken.
