Australia is an ancient land, and I am part of the ancient bit. I have been using my original Weber since 1978. I received the Weber from my mother in law who thought it was to fiddly to bother using it. This and a Lasagne dish was all I have to remember her by. Any way I ave given the old girl (Weber,not mother in law) a referb on a couple of occasions and it's still going strong. I LOVE to BBQ in all weathers, however I have just begun to experience "the science of BBQing" and get very excited trying new ways and ingredients that abound on this forum. Thank you all very much for your input it keeps the taste buds drooling. One comment, why not have separate areas for the different countries represented in the Forum. It would help us to communicate with like minded, in this case Australian, members.
Welcome to The Pit Jim. If you go to your profile, you can edit to add your location. That way people will know where you are from. You can find fellow Aussies that way - if they have listed that info.
