I'm looking to buy my husband a 'cheap' barbeque for his birthday (I say
cheap because we are not barbeque experts and really just want one to
practise with). I have no idea what sort are ideal for beginners. Can
anyone enlighten me - either what sort may be a good reasonably-priced
buy....or what to avoid.
Thanks in advance,
Jo

Get a gas one. they are simple and easy and give the barbecue taste. The
DIY sheds are full of them at a discounts now. I would get a two burner job
with a large lid and an upper shelf.
