Dutch oven for BBQ

[chml]

Hi, looking to cook some mussels and make a stew (separately) on my Weber BBQ and wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a Dutch oven. Weber have the one below on their site and I’ve a £20 voucher for them as well. It wondering if there’s anything else worth looking at.

For cooking stews on the BBQ (or fire pit) I bought one off eBay, no doubt a fraction of the price of a Weber one. Make sure it has a lid with a lip so you can add heat from above with lumpwood/wood etc.



For most cooking in a pan situations on my Weber though I use a steel paella pan that has a lid. It gets a lot of use and served me well. As with cast, the steel needs a little looking after.









A 30cm cast skillet with a cast lid would cover a lot of bases.

Buy some half decent size mussels and chuck them straight onto the bars -grill over the charcoal, as soon as they start to open start eating them off the grill , best mussels you'll taste .

All of those look absolutely sublime

Will see what Amazon and eBay have available as well, thank you

Again, this sounds the ticket!

If youre going to cook stew get yourself a Potjie pot. Used extensively in south africa and gives its name to the stew produced. You can buy them from amazon
