Weber 1200 ... is it too big? (1 Viewer)

[Grianan]

Looking for a bbq for 3 adults to carry in our hopefully imminent Campscout. Wondering what people carry? We won’t have an external gas point, at least not initially. I have a fondness for Webers but a suspicion there might not be enough space in the van.

Practicality rules! It could be a choice between the BBQ or your partner. If the food is really good ........

Yup, it’s nuts! But the portable Weber is nice and easy to stow in the garage. We carried one in our GlobeScout

....it is written in law that man cannot have a BBQ that is too big. Seriously, I was surprised at how much room the cadac takes up so the Weber might be a pleasant surprise. Good idea to get an external gas point as it is so convenient

Weber Q1200 is an awkward shape and size to store.. I partly overcome this by simply removing the lid.. just two clips and hinge pins.. this reduces the overall height considerably..

Measure your available space and if it's still too big consider buying the Weber Go-Anywhere gas model.. almost as big a cooking area but an easier shape to pack or store

If you need the actual sizes just ask , I'll measure mine

Seriously one of the best BBQs I ever encountered, in Hungary, involved two bits of rock with a wire mesh over them. Some dry sticks and a fire in the centre. When the fire went out, some slabs of meat were placed on the wire mesh over the hot wood embers.
The meat cooked to perfection.
I remember it still.
Space taken up was equal to the area and shape of a magazine.

We have had a Weber 1000 for 10 years now slightly smaller than the 1200.

Nothing better than cooking outside on a BBQ but the cleaning can sometimes be a problem. We have been using the cooking mats in the link below on our BBQ recently and they work a treat.
