Agreed, feet are awful looking things, toes in particular creep me out.

It's considerably easier with a controllable heat. I've never understood all the hate against gas BBQS, I can use my smoker to get a lovely flavour going and to be fair it's all about the prep work beforehand that makes a great BBQ. Giving your meat a good old rub is where it begins

Well most with gas BBQ don’t bother with the smoking part. So it just becomes a sad standard grill but made outside

I was really hoping for a little more sun during this spell of summer weather. Clouds always seem to clear a little before sunset just to let you know what you've been missing.

15 degrees in Auckland, thank you.

Low of nine overnight. Chilly!

Mine does It's pretty tricky using the rotisserie on a steady heat with charcoal. If it's any consolation I also have a Cobb for when there's just us and the kids.

What's tricky about it?

booming here already in the west will apollogise in advanced to the shoppers of marks and spencers for my budgie smugglers later.

Looks decent that! I still maintain that cooking on a rotisserie is somewhat easier on gas though, I don't want to be constantly faffing with coals and vents to maintain the correct temperature. You do it your way, I'll go for the easiest option thanks.

Constantly tinkering means you're doing it wrong

Apart from checking the probe on my phone every so often there's little else to it.

Easiest thing to get wrong I think is using poor charcoal.

Not moaning, but it's going to go from 20°C at 8am to 28°C by 3pm here,
