Weld a couple of plates to the inside of the sides with notches in the top to support the rotisserie, warming grill, etc.
Not as much as you need a suckling pig to go on that spit! Nice
check out my badboy!
In the words of Jim Carrey, 'I like it ah lot!'
Its not finished there, theres random bricks and stuff iv stuck in the coal bit to stop it from overflowing n stuff, its finished now but the father kinda *******ised it.. well in my opinion
To be honest just design your own badboy, although im likin the oil drum, its a decent mid-term solution.
I cant remember who it was but im sure I know someone whos ripped part of an engine cover off a disused harrier for a bbq
yeah it will do until I get a house.
There there will be bbq, tandoori oven and pizza oven. As well as outside sink and the rest of it.
Right welded the lid on, not a very neat job. As the cutting the barrel in half was not very straight. something to rectify when I make version 2.
Has anyone got a rotisserie bbq?
Was wondering how far the spline was from teh nearest side?
I assume it needs to go as far away from the charcoal as possible, but obviously you need a good gap between the meat and the lid. Any idea what the largest diameter part of a suckling pig will be.
yes that inside plank is burnt
, it was absolutely fine with charcoal, but filled the drum totally with wood, to burn out teh residue oil from the lid, it all got a bit hot.

No. Just no. I've done this twice with students (granted students are idiots) and out of the 4 BBQs we've used from a pound shop in total, non of them have EVER lit first time and have all managed to make the occasion more of a farse than it was worth.
At least get BBQs from sainsburys or something. 2 for 6 quid. It's worth it I swear.
Don't even do this. Get a real braai/bbq and you won't want to go back to cooking on the disposable ones! The ONLY thing they are good for is to get a real fire going when you're feeling lazy.
The charcoal in the disposable ones sucks too, you can easily cook for 3-4 hours with some decent wood and briquettes.

Have a look in the food forum
pretty good, done a fair few bbqs on it.
One here http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18188174&highlight=bbq
there's a few others in amongst other threads.
Not totally happy with it though. Once you start using things you always findniglling things about.
