Charcoal allowed?

[Megahurtz400]

Hi guys,

Would bags of charcoal be allowed into the campsites?

Tried hexi blocks for cooking last year, and they were completely useless, took about 10 mins to heat up (not even boil, luke warm tea, bad times!) a litre of water!

If not, what do you guys normally use?

Cheers

I would assume Charcoal would be allowed yes.

But we always just get a few disposable BBQs or those little things sold on site for cooking cans etc.. they worked pretty good.

Yeah was considering a portable BBQ, but thought if i could take some charcoal, and a BBQ/Oven shelf and fashion something to stand it on, i could get a proper nice little BBQ going for burgers on Wednesday night, and the kettle and bacon sandwiches every morning

This girl we were camping with had these little tablet things you set alight, didn't half keep going.

Last summer Homebase were selling mini barbeques that were basically a bucket with a grill on the top - perfect for cooking burgers or bacon on. I'll be diggin mine out of the garage this summer.

Hexi burners work really well. Safer and easier to carry than gas cookers.
