Looks like 2 scrawny bits of meat on a dustbin lid.

True, but they were nice and meaty, . chickeny but covered in a lovely tandoori marinade
, but decided we didn't need salad, red wine for me and white wine for Mrs H.
One Cadac is almost 18 years old, and the other one 15 years old.

Brilliant bits of kit and generally with spares available, but not much really to go wrong. We used ours last night, but dogs helping doesn’t get marinated or seasoned. Chicken thighs, red wine followed by Gladiator circa 2003, and I stayed awake too..

After 15 years of use I’ve given ours to my niece for her garden.
Nothing wrong with the Cadac except cleaning it on site after use was a nightmare.
It was great for BBQ and cooking while joints .
It was heavy and taking up a lot of space with all the very useful accessories.

We bought One of these.

Ok so real charcoal but easy to clean and transport plus still cooks authentically.

Our Cadac is the smaller variant so quite easy to clean in a communal sink, or my garage sink too. I’ve also got Weber Smokey Joe and Masterchef charcoal bbqs. The Smokey Joe we can take out for picnics as it’s very easy to carry.

BB you can use it on a table. I put an off cut of cement board underneath, to protect the table surface. Note its legs are quite tall.

I have a gas version just for trips of a few days.

Several weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to try Coconut shells Brickets for the BBQ, I did try them and they were good, long lasting but not overly hot enough for our Egg type of BBQ, but they would be ok for a BBQ where the grill is only a few inches away from the coals.
