Great deal. Really enjoy taking this camping or cooking at home for two
I originally was planning to grab a weber baby q but now I'm not so sure..
Different things.
If you are going to buy an expensive bbq like the Baby Q check out the Ziggy. Google weber vs ziggy, you get a lot more bang for your buck and some better feautures I believe.
a weber will still work just fine when this has been dead for years
I got my Weber via Coles flybuy points.
Does it take up much more room than a 2 burner?
Charcoal is where its at. Tell Hank Hill I said so.
Found one for $80?
Once upon a time, just an upright smoker/slow cooker.. Sure bunnos got the one im thinking of
Horses for courses mate.
Does anyone know if it is allowed on balconies with apartments above/below?
it would depend on your bodycorporate, id say no.
It's a bit selfish tbh, the smoke goes into the next apartment above.
It’s a shame that a lot of body corporates have banned bbqs, the smell of a bbq is a part of Australian summer culture.
Understand possibly banning coal or smoker ones.
Other things people cook in a apartment complex (not meth) can be just as offensive to some.
such as?
@9839002: curry smells awesome though?
fyi no one is offended by the smell of a bbq, they are offended by the smoke and the fat/oils that can be carried in it which is a perfectly reasonable thing to be offended by and a good reason to ban them in apartments. My apartment has a gas outlet on the balcony, so we can have bbqs.
lotsa overly sensitive whities are VERY offended by the smell of curry though. wonder why that is.
@Laserface: Easy petal. Curry is a pungent smell, that is a fact. Whether you like it or not, it's strong and hangs around.
I happen to enjoy curry but I also understand that not everyone wants to whiff my spices.
Cooking a BBQ in an apartment is not australian summer culture.
Go outside. Park/beach/etc
Tried boiling water on this at last camping trip. Took 45mins to get small bubbles for a liter of water. If the lid is closed it works fine. Don't expect much if the lid is open.
You really need just a direct "gas burner" under the water for boiling. Different product. This is more a BBQ.
This will be landfill in 12 months
You can quite literally see in the photo the legs don't sit completely flush with the table surface. Surely not intentional?
I think it is, from the looks of it, those legs can fold up
The legs fold under. In the photo they’ve just over extended them. They’re not the greatest design but mine do sit flush
For true bbq flavour a perforated (mesh) grill is needed as part of the process.
Good price. I got one of these 2-3 years ago for the caravan / camping. It's still going strong and works perfectly fine. Easy to clean and pack up.
Worst thing is probably the plate is flush with the bbq so I've lost a snag or two when they've rolled off the edge !
You get the flat and grill plates standard with it as opposed to the weber baby Q. I bought this bag from Tentworld to store it in, fits perfectly.

Pick it up, brush off the dirt and put the snag back, no one will be any wiser :)
haha, 10 second rule right !!
How do you find the fat drip area on the hotplate? Does the burner area get oily and require cleaning?
Seems ok, it makes its way down to the removable fat tray in the center underneath the bbq. I can't recall the burner area getting very oily. I usually give it a good clean after camping trips and just wipe down that area with a hot/soapy sponge. Sometimes if I didn't have it on a level surface one corner of the lower area may have some fat congealed in it too.

It comes with a long instructions of how to piece it together. Too many for my liking.
Good deal and BBQ works well. Have one in the back of the Ute for camping and outings.
