hotsmoked.co.uk have great CS but you can usually pick it up cheaper on Amazon or the like.

Yep, have watched them all and season 7 is currently airing.
The first series is great, really gives you an insight into the American bbq competition circuit. Went a bit down hill after that when they tried to turn it into a bbq masterchef, but has since improved again.
I got mine from forfoodsmokers as the frontier was OOS on hotsmoked. Mine did turn up with a very small flaw (chip on the rim of one of the stackers). I emailed them straight away with a picture and they put me through to ProQ who have already sent me a replacement stacker.

Good CS from ProQ - which fits in with other stories I've head about them 
(Weber are meant to be good too of course).

yeah I was really pleased with how they treated me

I'm in need of a new BBQ!
I have an old barrel one that's orange with rust and a pita to clean out when we're done - any suggestions? Looking for about the £100 mark although willing to stretch the budget for the right BBQ!

The obvious shout is a weber one touch, but if you want something different, last year I bought a bbq called a Kinley from b and q. It is very nice to use imo. It's a kettle housed in a trolley. It has a chimney starter, easy ash removal with a tray for a firefighter., small chopping board which conceals a bin, things to hang tools on and even has a bottle opener on the side. Overall it's a great product imo.

The Boston butt is a better choice for first smoke imho. Also the Australian Brisket is cheaper and just perfect.
Anything real large could take 20hours to smoke or more. I did a Boston Butt, Australian Brisket and St Louis ribs last weekend. Needed more than 20hours,but used foil in the end.

What a great site, lots of good BBQ cuts in one place
Yeah I should have took some pictures. Was an overnight smoke and a 2 hour rest period. Was simply mind blowing nice.
Dry brined two chickens to try on the proq today, however the wind is really bad this morning. Might put it off until tomorrow now 
Man of Honour
Don't let the wind put you off. Smoke the hell out of those chickens

Not purchased a new BBQ yet as so going to use my old one for some experiments today!
Snake method or whatever you call it for charcoal seems simple enough to do but all the guides show setting it up in a kettle/round BBQ and not a barrel - any hints/tips?
The cooking area on mine has 2 separate sections so I can definitely sort out indirect cooking just unsure about layout!

You can use snake mode with a barrel (I'm assuming it's one with a lid of course) or minion method. Either will work fine
Man of Honour
I'd give it a few extra if you can. Better to finish early than late

Yep, got a lid! Just wondering on layout as the cooking space is much more narrow. Oh well - experiments ahoy!
Man of Honour
Just put all the coals on one side so that you've got one square that is above coals and one that isn't
