My beautiful Weber!
Prawns ala gambas means 'Prawns in the style of prawns'.....
Shouldn't that read 'Gambas al ajillo'? A true Catalonian delight - big juicy prawns sizzling in garlic, oil and chilli in a cazuela. All you need to go with that is some chilled vino blanco and crusty bread to mop up the garlic and oil after you've woofed the prawns.
And absolutely NO rabbit food!
Anway, time to fire up the blackfellow tonight - looks like the UK might have a few days of summer Wx this week.

The Portuguese manner with chili, olive oil, garlic and a drop of beer on a flat metal plate is also good. Camarao and lulas on tomato rice with a good sprinkling of parsley and a chest full of cold cervesa while overlooking the Bazaruto archipelago. Not much to beat it...
Planchas
The Twotter is spot-on.. we've just invested in one of these
Chariot plancha Forge Adour. Plancha basque, chariot plancha, accessoires plancha
At the risk of winding up all you BBQ addicts, these are the dog's bollards..
Sardines, ice-cold rose, crusty bread...
aah..

Cazuela - the area in a tavern where women were segregated in the Spanish Golden Age.Did they stand behind a one way view (from the outside) glass wall with numbers on them ?
They still have those in Macau. Must be the Portugese way of serving without the terracotta dish.

sidevalve, that piece of froggery appears to have rotary control knobs and a suspicious looking pipe connected to it in one of those pictures of jolly grenouilles.
Which can only mean one thing....
GAS
Perhaps that's why they're hugging eachother so gaily....

All I'd say is don't knock it until you tried it..!
Always thought gas barbies a bit naff but this jobby moves al fresco dining into a new era (or sumfink!). And yes, it is powered by gas! And those are rotary control knobs..!

In need of the vast array of collective knowledge shown on this thread. Finally entered the 21st Century, turned to the dark side and bought me a gas Weber (some-one could have warned me that it was a 2-man lift and a complete bugger to try and get in the hangar on the ship!).
However, it says that it comes with a gas regulator. Will this fit any UK gas bottles, and if so what type? If not, where can I get one that will or can I just steal the one off Mrs RNGs patio heater?
Hopefully we'll get back in time to test fire it before the British Summer ends (or have you already had both sunny days?)
Thanks in anticipation.

'Gas', 'bugger', '2-man' and 'ship' all in the same sentence....
Can't help with your queery, I'm afraid. But ask around the next time you're in the Blue Oyster and I'm sure a 'friend' could help....
OK, enough banter. See Number of briquettes The name of that link is misleading, but it takes you to a page which covers your fuel requirements.

Took mine out for a last hop (probably) for the season.
Chops, pineapple slices, while consuming spiced rum/pineapple juice. (Leftovers from a Hawaiian party, you see.)
The salad maker kept the fluid level topped off, perfect weather, a good ending to the summer.
A toast to all those out ending another of their summers in not so pleasant places in the service of their country.

Judging by the solitary purple wildflower that has suddenly appeared on the 'south lawn' here at BEagle Towers, spring must surely be in the air.
Time to wake the spherical blackfellow up from his winter hibernation soon - anyone been tempted yet?
Must do an inventory check of the fire making apparatus - although I suspect that the charcoal might have become a bit damp.

Having successfully cooked the turkey at Christmas on old faithful, it really was time to retire it. 3 Handle repairs and support to a dodgy leg meant that 24 years service finally came to an end.
It has been replaced by an upgrade (the one with table attached) however still relies on proper fuel. First run out was today for some half time snorkers and bratties during the Croke Park debacle. At least the grub and the copious Fiddler's Elbow was enjoyed!!!

What's wrong with a half oil drum with a steel grid over the top? Furshlugginer metrosexuals and their Webers. Too chicken to bend over to get a beer out of the cooler with you lot on the loose.
I dunno... youth of today.... grump.... mumble.....

Its persisting hard gain today here on the left coast which means that my hard-wired GAS burning weber will STILL be in use without me starting any other fires in the neighborhood, thus avoiding p1ssing-off the locals and avoiding lawyers.
Lamb chops yesterday, ribeye steaks tonight.
Enjoy you all.
