Ta for both of the above - a useful starting point for me.
In other news, I just lost a long post and I'm irked.
Summary:
Been given a Weber Compact 57 - rack is rusty and in need of a clean but seems generally pretty solid. Going to either pick up a second OR a Weber Original Kettle (or premium kettle). I then also have my go-anywhere charcoal and a spacious electric oven and gas hob to help out. That should do me for 25-30 people, right?
I assume for the two larger webers it's charcoal only? I.e. wood is only for dedicated smokers like the wsm/gmg?
If it's charcoal only are there recommended suppliers for online purchases? Not going to have time to get out and buy. Need it delivered by next Thurs.
Other stuff that I may or may not need:
Digital thermometer - I have a thermo with a dial but digital would be faster and more accurate? Any recommendations so I don't kill my guests?
Start chimney? My understanding is you fill these with charcoal and get it lit (just burning or white hot?) and pour into the main grill so you have even heat distribution. But can't you just stir the coals in the grill?
Any other clobber I'm likely to need? I've got various utensils.
Cooking beef (not sure what), chicken (not sure how) and vegetables.
