The affordable BBQs giving the £1000+ Big Green Egg a run for its money -as Lidl drops £80 specialbuy

If you've been eyeing up an egg BBQ then you're not alone. The highly sought after Big Green Egg has become a cult favourite and garden status symbol over the years. But with these eggs starting at around £850, they're not accessible for everyone. Recent affordable alternatives from competitors like Lidl have been causing a shopping frenzy, with customers snapping up the middle aisle bargain for just £79.99. The best BBQs and kamados are fantastic at cooking up authentic, smoky classics like sausages, ribs and pulled pork. Many kamados can also be used with pizza stones, so you can enjoy crisp, fluffy slices without needing to own your own pizza oven. The soaring popularity of these brands has created a wealth of affordable alternatives for the everyday BBQ enthusiast who can't quite justify the Green Egg's lavish price tag - but do they offer the same features as the egg giant? I've been testing home and garden products, including pizza ovens, grills and BBQs for nearly seven years, so I know a thing or two about outdoor cooking. While the Big Green Egg is a gorgeous addition to the garden, you simply don't need to spend thousands of pounds to get a reliable kamado grill that cooks (and looks) just as good in your garden this summer. These are the best alternatives. Even if you don't know it by name, everyone recognises the Big Green Egg. At its core, it's a smoker, BBQ grill, oven and slow cooker, with a range of additional accessories that extend its uses even further. What sets it apart from other grills is its ceramic body, which stays hotter and regulates heat better than metal grills. This means a more even cook on meats. vegetables and more. It's THE go-to choice for BBQ aficionados, with reviewers raving about precise heat control and charcoal that burns for hours. Until recently having a Kamado BBQ was reserved only for those willing to spend £1,000+ but with more stylish, affordable alternatives popping up every day, you don't have to empty your bank account. Best affordable Big Green Egg alternatives Tower Kamado Maxi BBQ With a 13 inch surface area large enough for a family of four, this stylish alternative from Tower easily rivals the Green Egg's entry level model. It has all the same features, including a ceramic body, temperature control and a multifunctional grill. This model only comes in black but reviews are overwhelming positive, with people being impressed with its size. £399.99 Shop B&Q Kamado Mini BBQ Despite its bargain price tag, this mini kamado grill has a 13in grill and can reach temperatures of up to 370 degrees. Like the Green Egg, its body is made from ceramic. The budget price tag is great, keep in mind that it won't be as well insulated than pricier models and the build quality in general won't be as good. It's received lots of good reviews online with users saying it stays hot for ages and is easy to clean. Some people have reported issues with the lid occasionally not sealing correctly. Overall though, the consensus is that it's excellent value for money. £84.99 Shop Boss Grill the Egg Kamado BBQ If that signature green colour is important to you, the Boss Grill's kamado egg is one to consider. It's not quite as affordable as some of the others on this list but it's received rave reviews online the quality is closer to that of the original. It also comes with a stand, complete with foldable side tables, a cover ands a free pizza stone to sweeten the deal. Apart from the build quality, its big selling point is the three tier grill, so you can BBQ, roast and warm at the same time. Compatible with both charcoal and wood chips, this a serious bit of kit for BBQ enthusiasts. £549 Shop Kamado Joe Junior Kamado Joe is another big name in outdoor grilling, with its bright red egg rivalling the green one. Like the boss grill, it's on the pricier side but could still save you hundreds. It can bake, grill, BBQ, smoke and more and even comes with a cast iron stand - an accessory that will normally cost your extra. If you're wondering why you would spend almost £500 on an egg when you can pick one up for as little as £85, the answer is fairly simple - build quality. Cheaper versions keep the cost down by using thinner ceramic and lower-quality fixings. This model has a super-thick ceramic body for superior heat and moister retention and a hinged cooking grate so you can top up on charcoal while you cook. £493.99 Shop Habitat Ceramic Kamado BBQ You can grill, smoke, sear and slow cook in this 13 inch kamado. Like the Big Green Egg it has a gorgeous ceramic body for optimal heat retention. Heat can be controlled with the vents and there's a temperature gauge on top. Unlike the more expensive green alternative, this model also comes with a large stand and foldable side tables for all your BBQ bits at a fraction of the price. Reviewers say it's good quality and the perfect size for two adults. £275 Shop What is the difference between the Big Green Egg and the Kamado Joe? Big Green Egg and Kamado Joe and two different brands who both produce kamado style BBQs. They have many of the same functions and features, with their main differences being colour and price point - Kamado Joe is red and typically cheaper than Big Green Egg. What is the difference between a BBQ and a kamado? Most BBQs are designed with a metal body and are only suitable for grilling foods like burgers, sausages and vegetables. A kamado BBQ is an all-in-one cooker with a ceramic body that can be used as a grill, smoker, oven and more. Kamados typically use less charcoal than traditional BBQs and can be used for low and slow cooking due to greater heat retention and temperature control. Can you use a kamado as normal BBQ? Yes, a kamado grill functions as a regular BBQ but can also smoke and slow cook, as well as be used for indirect cooking. This is because it has a lid with a tight seal to lock in heat and moisture. Can the Big Green Egg or kamado BBQ be rained on? Yes, the Big Green Egg and its alternatives can be left out and used in all weathers as long as they have a ceramic coating. However, it's important not to get the inside of your kamado wet, as this can trap moisture inside and cause it to go mouldy. You might also want to consider investing in a kamado cover to keep your BBQ looking its best.

Hide toys, tidy away cables – and make friends with baskets: 11 clever home storage hacks

Modern home life is messy: between scattered toys, shoe piles by the front door and tangled cables, it can be hard to keep on top of the clutter. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. We've asked design experts and home organisers for their best tips on how to hide it all, from furniture with charging drawers to hidden living room storage, cable clips and sleeves to an overlooked, hidden bathroom storage spot. And remember: storage baskets are your friend. Rachel Burditt, home organiser at The Declutter Darling, says clients often ask for help hiding the cables that dangle from lamps, speakers and TVs. Her solution? Using small cable clips (available from DIY stores such as Toolstation) to hold them in place on the back or side of the item. You just stick or nail the clip on to a hidden spot and feed the cable through it, keeping it out of sight. For cables that need to run along the floor, she recommends using cord sleeves – essentially jackets for your wires – that blend into your decor. She gets hers from Amazon, but you'll find them in all DIY shops. In areas where multiple cables are needed, it might be worth investing in a cable box. They're neutral containers you can sit a block of sockets in, keeping wires and plugs hidden and stopping them from gathering dust. Muji's white, steel cable organiser looks like a desk tidy and fits into even the most minimalist aesthetic. 'You can also get trays that attach under tables to keep wires tidy, which work well if you've got a home office,' Burditt says. Try Livivo's under-desk cord organiser. Amazon cord sleeves £5.10 at Amazon Muji steel cable organiser £19.95 at Muji Livivo cord organiser £14.99 at B&Q£14.99 at Amazon The games consoles, tablets, laptops and phones that litter surfaces while they're charging can also be hidden. Interior designer Loren Kreiss recommends creating a charging drawer in a bedside table or chest of drawers. Drill or cut a hole in the back. Put a block of sockets inside, run an extension cord through the hole and connect them to the nearest power outlet. Then leave your chargers in the drawer, ready to go. Interior designer Wesley Moon takes a similar approach with beauty devices: 'I always build outlets into a drawer in vanity stations so things like hairdryers can stay plugged in.' This means they're always tidied away. If you're DIY-phobic, check out Wayfair, which has a range of cable management cabinets with holes pre-cut into the back. Try the stylish Holz Stainless Steel 2 with a ridged, moody black finish and a slot for wires at the back. Holz stainless steel 2 cabinet £125.99 at Wayfair If you don't have an office and don't want your home to look like a student library post-6pm on WFH days, an easy way to clear away your tech, stationery and paperwork is a must. Burditt recommends using a butcher's trolley from Ikea, such as the Räskog – a stack of three baskets on wheels that you can fill with your work essentials and then stow away easily. 'They're really small [61 x 28 x 38cm]. Mine fits in my under-the-stairs cupboard.' They are also great for handbag collections, tool kits and more. Burditt recommends them for storing kids' craft materials – allowing you to wheel the glue, glitter, felt tips, card etc out of sight after your little one has finished their masterpiece. Want a way to store the artworks they're making? 'Get one of the My Little Davinci picture frames,' says Imani Keal, DIY content creator at @imaniathome. 'They allow you to store up to 50 sheets of paper, and you can display the nicest one on the outside.' Ikea Råskog £25 at Ikea My Little Davinci multi-storage picture frames £29.99 at My Little Davinci£29.99 at Amazon Bulky kitchen appliances such as air fryers and toasters take up valuable counter space. 'If people have enough room, a walk-in pantry with a dedicated worktop is a great place to store appliances,' says Emma Perkin, director of Emil Eve Architects. 'But of course, that's not achievable for everyone.' For smaller kitchens, Perkin recommends adapting standard cupboards. 'You can modify a tall, open-backed Ikea cabinet – for example, a Metod high cabinet – by adding a worktop-height work surface to one of the shelves and installing a plug socket. By removing or reducing the depth of the shelves above this (by either cutting them narrower or using shelves from the matching wall unit, which are only 360mm deep), you can create space for your toaster and air fryer inside a cupboard, with shelves for spices, jars and bottles above.' Metod high cabinet £146 at Ikea 'I don't want plastic scattered everywhere, so I use hidden storage for toys,' says Burditt. She labels thin, flat storage bags – such as underbed grey storage bags from Dunelm – to keep puzzles, games and Lego under her sofa. 'It's all tucked away, but my kids know exactly where to find their things.' For larger items, she says an ottoman works well. 'Just close it up, throw a blanket and some cushions over it, and suddenly it's extra seating.' With a capacity of 117 litres, you could fit plenty of Lego in Swyft's cushioned storage 02 bench, available in velvet, boucle or linen. Moon takes a similar, but built-in, approach. 'In one New York apartment, we created a banquette along one wall. It worked as a dining nook, but the seat lifted up to reveal compartments underneath. Each child had their own section for toys, and we made sure the lids had spring mechanisms so they stayed open – no pinched fingers!'

'Put the weights at the bottom of the basket, and then use it to hold throw blankets on top to camouflage them,' says Keal. H&M storage basket £19.99 at H&M If you want to get fitter without joining a gym, check out our guide to the best home exercise kit 'You can place a litter box at the bottom of a cupboard, getting a carpenter to cut in a discreet entry hole for your cat,' says Perkin. 'We designed one against an external wall with an air vent leading outside, helping with ventilation and keeping things smelling fresh.' B&Q has a range of cupboards and cabinets designed to hide cat paraphernalia, such as the Feandrea decorative litter box cabinet, which has a flexible internal space where litter trays, cat beds and bowls of food can be tucked away. Moon took a similar approach to Perkin when it came to integrating a dog crate into a design for a client. 'We built it into an end table beside their sofa,' he says. 'Instead of a basic wire crate, we used a decorative metal grille – similar to what you'd see on an air vent, but with larger openings for airflow. He used New York-based Architectural Grille to make custom-designed sides, working with a carpenter on the frame. 'We bolted it to the floor so its table surface didn't wobble when the dog moved,' he says. Lots of furniture designers are selling similar dog crate furniture on Etsy. Tolotun dog house makes mid-century modern dog crates that look more like kooky 1970s display cabinets. Meanwhile, Kurr Pets' dog and cat beds and houses, made of Baltic birch plywood and jewel- and pastel-tone fabric, would blend into a contemporary flat. Feandrea litter cabinet £50.99 at Songmics£78.39 at B&Q Tolotun dog house From £279.56 at Etsy Burditt has a simple idea for keeping an exposed gas meter concealed, which she used for a recent client. 'We got a picture shelf and put that underneath it, and then got a few big prints to put in front of it.' Perkin says: 'Hiding an ugly boiler inside a cupboard can make a massive difference. There are lots available specifically for this, or you could incorporate the boiler into a larger cupboard, perhaps with shelving around it for additional storage. She recommends Lark & Larks, who make tall cupboards specifically designed to conceal boilers, starting at £75.16. 'You need to make sure you leave adequate space around and in front of the boiler for ventilation and access.' Lark & Larks boiler cupboard £75.16 at Larks & Larks 'You know the panel on your bath? On some – usually the wooden ones – you can actually slide that out and use the space behind it,' says Burditt. If not, she recommends installing a Ceramica bath storage panel, which turns the space around your bath into a hidden cupboard with a sliding, lockable door. She says this is good for storing kids' bathroom toys, spare beauty and cleaning products and loo rolls. Perkin says if you're planning to renovate your bathroom and you're getting a concealed cistern and wall-hung toilet installed, you have an opportunity to put in hidden storage. 'You're building out the wall anyway for the cistern to sit behind,' she says. 'So you can get a carpenter to build in recessed shelves above the cistern, with mirrored doors flush with your new wall.' Ceramica panel £119.99 at Plumb World Try Ikea's Trones storage cabinet. 'They are only 18cm deep and work in every single space,' says Keal. It looks like a clean white box, and was designed to store shoes, but she uses it to hide her wifi router, incoming post, her dog's leash, food and toys. 'And you can use the top of it to put a little basket or drop your keys on.' And for the shoe littering? Perkin says if you're undergoing renovations and you have a generous living room next to the entrance hall, 'you could look to borrow a bit of space from this to create recessed shoe and coat storage from the hallway.' Like Keal, she recommends fold-out racks for storing shoes away in narrow spaces. More than 10 pairs of shoes can be tucked away in the five-tiered steel Logan shoe rack from Sklum (£209.95). Wayfair also has a range of similar shoe tidies, such as the Sheringham six-pair storage with a wooden slatted finish. Ikea Trones cabinet £25 for two at Ikea Sheringham shoe storage £78.99 at Wayfair Whether they're wardrobes or kitchen units, Perkin recommends always building cupboards up to the ceiling. 'We will often try to avoid any form of cupboards or wardrobes that stop below, because it creates a dust trap and you're just wasting space that you could use.' While that space might be hard to get to, it's a great place to store the things you only need every now and then – boxes of Christmas decorations, for example. You can do this by stacking two standard kitchen units on top of each other. 'I always recommend getting a bed that's at least eight to 12 inches off the ground,' says Keal, 'so you can slide suitcases and other items under it.' Dusk and Loaf both have great options with vast ottoman storage. 'It's the perfect space for things you don't need access to all the time and want to keep out of sight.'

The 1% Club wipes out seven players instantly on easy 90% question – but would you have known the answer?

A QUESTION on The 1% Club wiped out players from the get-go - despite being deemed as easy. The popular quiz show, fronted by Lee Mack, is known for leaving players with their minds boggling thanks to its tough questions as the game goes on. 3 3 However for most of the 100 players, they manage to sail through the first few round which are deemed easy thanks to most of the general public being able to correctly answer them. But for one episode of the Saturday night quiz favourite, seven people fell at the very first hurdle. They all failed to correctly identify the answer to the opening 90% question - which was all about letters. Reading the question aloud, Lee said: "Which of the following words still makes a valid word if you change the first letter to the next letter in the alphabet?" Lee then told the players of the three choices they had to pick from, which were - Page, Rage and Wage. With 30 seconds on the clock, the 100 players did their best to attempt to answer the question. However, for seven of them, they could not get to the right answer. Lee then confirmed that the answer was in fact, Rage. By switching the 'R' to an 'S' - the following letter in the alphabet - players were left with the word, Sage. Page would have produced "oage", whilst Wage would have read "xage". The 1% Club wipes out 20 people on tricky numbers question One player who got it wrong admitted it was his "biggest fear" to go out on the 90% question. He told Lee that he panicked and failed to read the question properly before selecting the answer as "wage". Hardest Quiz Show Questions Would you know the answers to some of quizzing TV's hardest questions Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history. Host Jeremy Clarkson asked: 'From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters?' The multiple choice answers were between G, K, M and W. In the end, and with the £32,000 safe, player Glen had to make a guess and went for G. It turned out to be correct as Nicole Kidman, Frances McDormand and Kate Winslet are among the stars who have won the Best Actress gong since 2000. The 1% Club - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed. The query went as follows: "Edna's birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen's birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir's birthday must be the 'X' of January." It turns out the conundrum links the numbers with its position in the sentence, so 6th is the sixth word and 15th is the fifteenth word. Therefore, Amir's birthday is January 24th, corresponding to the 24th word in the sentence. The Chase - The ITV daytime favourite left fans scratching their heads when it threw up one of the most bizarre questions to ever grace the programme. One of the questions asked the player: "Someone with a nightshade intolerance should avoid eating what?" The options were - sweetcorn, potatoes, carrots - with Steve selecting sweetcorn but the correct answer was potatoes. 3
