I Braai in a tiny barrel braai because of environmental considerations and I enjoy gas. I don't have a roofed area to braai and think these fancy braais should be protected from the elements. Where I can I like charcoal made with invasive species of trees. Pity they don't harvest what is a problem in some areas. "Mesquite" It a nice flavor for smoking and am sure would be good to braai with.Surprisingly, she suggested it... and it cost about the same as replacing my 30 year-old Weber.
I'm really enjoying it, as if I could say anything to make myself even less popular with the charcoal aficionados.
