Before we started our summer cruise last year I invested in a Cobb BBQ. Its the one the Hairy Bikers used, so I thought it would be great on the boat. The first trial was at Alrewas with two very nice steaks from Coates butchers. It was not good, the Cobb steamed rather than grilled and the meat was over cooked. I persevered over the summer but I have decided to give it best and get a portable Webber BBQ.

The Cobb has its advantages, you can cook on the roof of the boat as the outside does not get hot. I have come to the conclusion that the reason the outside goes not get hot is because the inside does not get very hot. The Cobb is now redundant, which is a great shame as the bloody thing was very expensive!
The Webber is a standard kettle BBQ with short legs so I should have no problem with this.
Meet the Jumbo Joe, now installed on Tilly May ready for a trial run at Alrewas when we finally get going. I hope I can use the Cobb coconut shell based charcoal with the Webber or I will have waisted another fifty!
Hello you two, How are you doing and where are you going this year? We set off a week ago and so far have got to Northampton ready to do the Rothersthorpe flight up onto the Grand Union. We are headed all over this year, including your way. Let us know your itinerary we may be able to meet up for a drinky.
