My worst BBQ ever.
Had a very old rusty and dented gas barbecue .
When the plate was hot enough, I oiled and wiped with a paper towel. Was just a tad hard I guess, for the rusted bracket snapped and sent the hot plate and burners into a heap on the fat tray.
Turned off the gas, grabbed a beer and had a long think.
Plan B.
Grabbed some concrete besser blocks from around my vegie garden. Made a little oven with three sides, wood fire in the middle and a roof/cook-top using the BBQ hot plate.
Lit fire, grabbed another beer and waited till hot plate was nice and hot. This little BBQ was a rippa!!
Turned around to grab the snags and T-bone steak and saw the plate was empty. Then noticed two very quiet dogs lying on the lawn munching my dinner.
