\nI love fire. Not in a scary pyromaniac sort of way. Just that basic neanderthal instinct which I think every person has deep down. It’s a great time for fires and outdoor cooking; Autumn, bonfires, dark evenings and fireworks night. <\/p>\n
I’ve recently decided to treat myself to a few new bits of outdoor cooking gear. I found a great site called Not On The High Street.<\/a><\/em> The items I bought were a Steel Bucket BBQ<\/a><\/em>, a fire cooking utensil called Grandpa’s Firefork<\/a><\/em> and a Firestick<\/a><\/em> (a tool for starting fires). <\/p>\n The first one I’m going to gabble about is a bucket, but it’s a bit more than just that. It’s made of galvanised steel and is literally tough as nails. For easy transportation the BBQ has a handle which is removable so it doesn’t get hot when cooking. Halfway down the bucket there is a tray that holds the charcoal, below this the bucket is dotted with holes to allow air flow and improve the amount of heat created. Cannot wait to get some serious use of this!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n I also bought the Firestick, which is one of those Bear Grylls style tools for creating sparks in order to start fires. You have two different pieces which when you strike one against the other makes 3,000\u00b0C sparks. So much cooler than using matches and a lighter and a very quick and effective way of lighting that fire.<\/p>\n
