In the UK we really BBQ badly. Very badly. Burnt on the outside and raw in the middle.

So last year I decided to learn how the Americanland people do it. So I did lots of research, and found out all about what you posted above and indirect heat. Now I am the BBQ king!

Most evenings in the summer I cook on the grill, everything, and make some bloody good flatbread on it too!

I'm now just trying really hard to justify buying a Big Green Egg...
