I needed to get two more large oil drum BBQs for this season for a large wedding in June my usual supplier up north did not have any so I need to make them my self having been quoted ludicrous amounts of money by other suppliers
Getting the barrels was not easy then
stripping them of all paint (as its toxic) took ages
Angle grind them in half I borrowed a grown up angle grinder : hot sparks
Three coats of stove paint. Then I got a skilled welder to put grill supports on, I cut and drilled holes in the legs then attached them to the bbqs. You can just see some wild hops climbing up my shed. Quite a big job which is why my usual supplier charges over £300 but with regular repaints these will last years https://www.cateringforsuffolk.co.uk/charcoal-barbecues-and-whole-joints-of-roasted-meat/
