    "Bushpig" Braai

    Just thought I'd show this off!! Postman brought it today and I'm well impressed with the build. Not for backpacking but well handy for meet-ups etc. When we get a break in the weather I'll post some pic's of it in use!!
    (As usual - no affilliation with the seller etc etc!!)

    I've had it out for a full test a couple of times in the garden!! and works well. I did contact the makers and suggested that they did a mesh top that only fits half the box - then if u are using sticks, you can feed the fire without having to remove the whole grill mesh each time!! They already have started making a solid grill plate to cover 1/2 which is great so you can keep your kettle ticking over or even cook directly on it!! Overall a very robust adaptable bit of kit, and not too expensive.

    Not one for the "backpackers" but I keep mine in the back of my pick-up for that just in case al-fresco picnic Also a lot of the meet-ups now are only allowing small fires built "off the ground" this is perfect

    Looks good Graham. Is it ready for a balmy night by the lakes?
