  1. well i say you can feed 4 on one if you talking burgers/sausages,so i would say 5 or 6,you can buy them from the pound shop! and if you buy your burgers and stuff frozen they'll work out a lot cheaper..say go to iceland or farmfoods


  2. i'd say get somewhere along the lines of 7-10 BBQ

    £200 sounds like a good budget cus the bbqs are about £10 each so that makes £100 and 100 for food seems good. tesco usually sell those disposable bbqs especially on summer so they could have some offers on. Also morrisons are doing offers on all barbecue type food at the moment. Hope i helped

  3. It would be cheaper to buy a small bbq than loads of disposables. You could buy 1 of them a bag of charcoal and fire lighters for about £15-£20. Price of food depends on what you want to cook, £200 will get you loads.

  4. It depends on how many types of meat you intend to cook. Use 1 BBQ per meat group (i.e. 1 for chicken, 1 for beef etc) to avoid cross contamination and 1 for veg.

    Disposable BBQ's are quite cheap from supermarkets such as Morrison's and Asda (and Iceland- occasionally- if you live near one)- you can usually get two for £5 and the meat can be cheap if you find a good, decent, local butcher. £200 is more than enough to cover the cost of your plans. (I fed 10 friends on £50 once- including 2 crates of beer :)   ).

    Hope this is useful and I hope you have fun!

  5. I would allow 1 BBQ for every two people if they are the 500mm x 250mm we have.

    Try a BBQ speciality store or perhaps a supermarket chain.

    As for the food allow a couple of sausages per person plus onions sliced bread or hot-dog rolls.

    Investigate the cost of hiring a good BBQ or even a BBQ professional.

    £200 is a lot of money here so you should be able to splash out, but how that turns out price wise for you could make a difference.

    A lb of sausages over here would be about .80d-£1

  6. Hi We use a disposable on the beach for 6 of us and it is ok... so i would take 5 (as once one didnt light!)

    Also £200 is tons of cash for food no worries I guess you could do it in less but make sure you get servettes etc... and always soft drinks and cups.  Oh and dont forget to get veggie food (linda McCartney or Quorn) only prob need one pack of them tho... Good luck and enjoy

    Ps dont light all thebbqs at once start with 2 then 20-30mins later do the others as they need 10 mins to warm up
