I've taken the bull by the horns this morning and ordered ourselves a Cadac Carri Chef Deluxe from Ebay. It is something we have been thinking about for quite a while, but the choices were so varied.

Would be grateful for any tips.

It says that there is a roasting dish & stand which can be bought separately, has anyone got this and if so, would they recommend it, also what is the difference between the Skottle Top it comes with and the Paella pan that is also available.  Would anyone also recommend the non-stick liner?

I am somewhat excited by our new purchase, and cannot wait to try it out.

The paella pan is non stick. When it arrives the griddle top has a similar surface and is great to cook on and easy to clean. I haven't got a paella pan as yet but it's defininitely on my wish list. The skottle top is domed but I find it quite shallow to cook with and it does stick quite a bit and being so big it's a pain to clean. Some people love them though. I absolutely love my cadac and I'm sure you will too.

Just debating here what to buy at the supermarket when I collect the kids from school. Have decided to use the griddle part tonight as never cooked on a griddle before. I'm like a child with a new toy - and it is still packed up in the box, I have resisted the urge to unpack it as OH wants that pleasure!
