Hi folks

                Thinking of buying a cadac, are they worth the money? they do look good.

                               thanks Deano

Don't listern to the Triton Fool hes still in the dark ages buy a cobb they are prehistoric

A Cadac is a twenty first cooking device and yes they are worth every penny if you want a quick meal r a BBQ or just about anything you could think of cooking on a campsite it will do it quickly for you

Dont get one,they are not a lot of good & not worth the money,go for a Cobb.

Well i wouldn't be without mine!

Its a mixed bag really as sometimes i hanker after a cobb too for doing a roast or smoking stuff, but i do mainly wok cooking so the cadac is more practical. Oh the BBQ part of it is awful to clean, but the cadac cleaner does a grat job- even if i'm pretty convinced the aerosol version is oven cleaner!

Do a search and you'll see this topic can get quite 'heated' !!!

I have a cadac, very handy multi purpose bit of kit.

I'm sure the cobb is a great bit of kit but how can you compare them as they do diffrent jobs!  Would you really boil a kettle or knock up brekkie on a cobb?  Can you heat or bake a pie or roast in a cadac? ( even with oven top) would you want to? 

It comes down to what you need from it, as they are both worthy additions to anyones kit.

I would highly recommend the cadac - got mine around 4 years ago and it has been worth every penny - managed a full english for 13 as well as some really great meals.  It is a high quality versatile piece of kit and great for camping trips as you can pack it down into it's carry bag, I also use it in the garden - I wouldn't be without mine!

Hear hear - it all comes down to what sort of stuff you want to cook. And how much of a hurry you're in. I like to take it slow on a campsite so am happy with my Cobb, but it's not so good for traditional bbq grilling. The Cadac would be better for that.

Have a Cobb and Large Campingaz Party Grill Combo which is similar I think to a Cadac.

Love them both......... The Party Grill for frying up breaky in a morning and the wok for such fab quick food.

The Cobb for wonderful roasts, baked potatoes and yummy slow cooked meats.
