Weber BBQ cooking

nazzysmith said:
Pretty straight forward actually...

Pour heat beads in.... Add half a pack of firelighters and light it up and leave it for an hour.

Total time to set up... A couple of minutes...

Of course...

Gas BBQ, turn gas cock, press igniter wait five minuts, place steak on BBQ finished in ten minutes, five for rare

Where do you get total set-up time FOR WEBER of 2 minutes if it takes an hour LOL.

Yeah this^^^

It takes about 40 minutes for the coals to be ready, but I don't sit there watching them, about 1 minute to light, then do something else for 45 minutes (like do my gym workout). I often light the BBQ about half way through my gym session, then its ready to cook on by the time I finish.

I used to mess with them and move them around, and it makes no difference, just leave them alone and they actually seem to light better.
 
Here is a few of my Cooks over the last week.

Ribs were then sprayed, Foiled and cooked for another 3 hours..

Tonight is Brined chicken on the new Mini Spit ( pics to come)

Spewin i didn't get pics of last nights pork roast, ME and the boys were way to hungry i forgot... First time with that cut and the crackling was to die for. A little smoke at the start ten cooked to 190F around 2 1/2 hours :)

This weekend is Lamb Leg, Beef ribs, Rib Roast and i will be smoking an assortments of cheeses ( cold smoking).
 
Cooked over $200 worth of meat this long weekend...... Phone decided to re set it self and lost every dam photo.

Don't get me wrong. I got to eat a shit load of good meat - But no fun if i cant share the love of BBQ.

So. Fu$k Smart phones.
 
Attempted to cook up another lamb roast + roast veges on the weber over the weekend.. Couldn't keep temperature up for some reason and ended up having to finish it all in the oven. Tasted good still, but frustrating that I couldn't get the weber to cooperate :(

Had a reasonable pile of heat beads which were all ashed over nicely, added some lump charcoal on top to try and bring temperature up but no joy - without ending up with too much in there to avoid cooking direct I couldnt' get the temperature over about 160-170.. Which would have been fine if I had more time, but I wasn't planning on this being a slow roast lol.

I suspect the problem may have been the coles-brand heat beads I used.. Burning out too quickly or something? No idea really.. don't have many of those beads left though and then it's back to the "genuine" heat beads.. Also got a few boxes of the redheads lump charcoal while they were on special at woolies..

Did you have enough air flow?
 
Redhead charcoal is great – Expensive but quality.
The only heatbead id would use is Heatbeads brand…. Around 30 for a good roast.
 
So cooking kicked off on Tuesday night with this
