Family want a medium sized one to enjoy the hot weather we'll no doubt
be suffering this year. New daughter in law is Texan so she is expecting
to at least try some steaks!! Hopefully living in Aylesbury she'll not
expect too much by the time we get one and arrange some sort of al
fresco meal.
It usually involves me cooking but spotting weeds etc and wandering
around tidying up whilst everyone else eats

We have a large gas one with volcanic rock in it and two separate
burners so that it can be used for saucepans etc. attached to the
side , there is also an area to put food on and a rack above the
flames to put the cooked food on. We use that when people are here,
when we are alone we use a Weber kettle, they use charcoal and are
absolutely great as you can control the air intake, if a sausage
catches fire, put the lid on and/or adjust the air vent and
immediately it will douse the fire, it's my favourite and will cook
food easily for about 4-5 people but not for a big crowd.
