Indoor diy barbeques
In the far east recently I saw tiny barbeques about ten inches square, the
base being made from what i think was some kind of clay and had a stainless steel rack to sit on the top. They could easily be placed on a kitchen hob, so that you could have an indoor barbi. They were too heavy to bring one home. I'm wondering if anyone has seen them for sale in the u.k.? Or if anybody had adapted anything to make a miniature barbeque that one could use indoors in the kitchen placed on the gas hob? |

Indoor diy barbeques
If you want to use your cooker fan extractor hood then buy a "Piramid"
(maybe Pyramid) barbeque and place it overthe hob. We have had one for years and they are superb. Quite expensive but have long guarantee.

First, charcoal fires produce carbon monoxide, which can be deadly. Second, a charcoal fire consumes oxygen, and in an enclosed room the oxygen can be depleted below the concentration necessary to sustain human life. In the US, about 25 people are killed each year from burning charcoal indoors. See for instance http://www.hpa.org.uk/web/HPAweb&HPA.../1195733793495 or http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/452.html |

Most days are OK to use charcoal outside. I do it all the time here in south western Ontario Canada. Every month of the year. You don't need to be inside. Except for to eat. |

If you go to a Turkish/Middle Eastern supermarket in London (or elsewhere), there will be metal contraptions meant for grilling kebabs over charcoal. Just make certain to have good ventilation if using coals. No idea if they will work over a hob though. |

Note that the OP *did* *not* mention charcoal. For all you folks suggesting that carbon monoxide is a concern, you have a point *if* the contraption uses charcoal, but what I *think* the OP may have meant is some type of ceramic heat sink material that absorbs heat from the regular stove top burner and then acts like the volcanic rock in traditional outdoor gas grills. The heated surface catches dripping fats and juices which then vaporaize and that flavors the meat. So, maybe not as dangerous as everyone seems to be assuming. On the other hand, since the OP has not clarified what he's talking about, it may have just been a drive-by trolling. Bill Ranck Blacksburg, Va. |
