Yep thats the rotisserie rail you can see above the side gas burner in the bad night photo. I love this bbq the grill is one of the best I have ever worked on and I've workedin a lot of char pubs and restuarants I love the plates. easy to cook on easy to clean. Its the best "early" christmas present I can remember.

Looks great. When I think of Australia I always think of shrimp on the bar-b and drool.

Spoken like someone who has never been here

Here we actually call them 'prawns' & the best I've seen were caught fresh off Nth Stradbroke Island and were 7 to the kg (about 3 prawns to the lb)...they were like steaks :drooling:

we do like bbq'd seafood in OZ but I don't think it's as popular as Paul Hogan has made everyone believe

billyboy · Dec 2, 2007

Except maybe, freshly caught off the trawlers headless green medium king prawns @ 20bucks a kilo, done in freshly picked chopped chilli on the BBQ!

bentalphanerd · Dec 2, 2007

...then theres that w/end I spent in Yamba where the trawlers come in...mmmm $4/kg

chilliman64 · Dec 2, 2007

stillmanz · Dec 2, 2007
