Yes
Weber make great, long lasting products. We have a baby Weber Q that is over 20 years old and still storming along.
Sweet! It doesn't have a drip pan, do I just use the aluminium ones they sell?

Picked up a second hand weber spirit 210 in pretty mint condition for 50 quid, just missing flavorizer bars. Good deal?
I have a similar gassie which I never use, but it is extremely well made. U could probably pick up spare flavorizer bars easy. The drip pan usually sits in the middle of the que under the bars, IIRC there should be a little bracket and the fat is designed to roll down into it. You can buy aluminium foil weber pans or cheap copies from places like bunnings or Mitre10

Hamburger patty from the farm across the valley, home-grown tomatoes & lettuce, onions from neighbour. Topped with mayo & home-made tomato relish.
Bloody marvelous

During winter I often cook a puy lentil ragu. Roasted a chicken and served it on the ragu tonight.
Here's a basic recipe for the lentil ragu (I add smoked paprika, and then lemon juice and fresh herbs at the end. Maybe some white wine to deglaze, or some sherry vinegar.)
I use two cups of chicken stock and one cup of water per cup of lentils.

Any suggestions for a fairly cheap, portable charcoal bbq? Not sure I want to stretch to a smokey joe if it's only very occasional use...
Akorn Jr
Weber Go Anywhere

@canefan hah it's also about 250 smackaroos over here, but cheers for the steer!
The Akorn? Definitely more expensive. The Go Anywhere is the cheapest quality bbq around. Otherwise a cheap style kettle or GA copy will do basic grilling, lower and slower cooks will be more difficult

@nzzp Again with the Peaches? You really should be on some sort of a retainer.
I've been trying to get there ever since you first mentioned it, but Panmure is a bit of a trek. Whenever I have been anywhere in the area (like e.g. Highbrook) I have made a visit but they've always been either closed or packed to the rafters.
Really DO need to get there.

Yeah ... my wife sent me that one. But we're fans, and for good reason.
Their chicken is an experience. Seriously. It's packed for a reason.
Plus, Panmure FFS. It's become a real ethnic food destination
