Where sells the best small gas grills??
How small you looking at?? There's a lovely little table top one pricesmart has occasionally for about 1k


As small as they can get.

That sounds decent. Will look around for that.

Thanks.

Looks similar to this. POS branch had. My uncle just retrofit it and he uses regular tank gas in the kitchen

Bhagwansingh

https://www.weber.com/US/en/grills/port ... 24#start=1

Around $800

Roopnarine patio on Caroni savannah road may have the older model for cheaper - the older model has better reviews because of the flavourizer bars

Anyone know where I can get high quality coals for smoking.
Currently using foreign coals from Bhagwansingh but trying to buy local and cut cost

I have one of these with a Weber carry bag. I planned on listing it in my garage sale soon. I also have the smallest Weber charcoal kettle grill that's going up for sale. Both were used maybe two or three times.

Here's a cheap build


The thing cost $120 ready made... the time you would spend to make it is worth more.

Use a sardine tin with meth spirits and light it under the chimney or coals
Burns very hot and lights the coals faster than papers or them lighter cube
Be careful with spilling as it is very volatile and the spill will catch on fire too

yeah some meth spirits in a sardine can below is the easy way to light fast

careful lighting it as it very volatile, if you spill some on your hand it could catch
better to use one of those long lighters
it burns invisible too

dont pack up the chimney tight, it needs space for the air to flow through
more air more combustion

Thanks guys.

Used it today. 15-20 mins and the coals were red and ready (did I just say that ). Used a couple sheets of newspapers.

Anyway like someone mentioned earlier, wished I heard about it a million years ago

Will prob try the meth spirits next time.

Tip: Drop a couple drops of cooking oil on the newspaper. The coals will light up even faster.

Tip: Drop a couple drops of vanilla essence on the newspaper. The coals will smell like ice cream.
