Anyone recommend a decent Charcoal BBQ for around 300-400GBP?

Anyone got one of these?

Yes.

I’ve also had one for years. As someone said above, get one of these, a chimney starter & a wireless meat thermometer. That will get you started.

Then, if you want, be prepared to be sucked into a Weber-inspired black hole of smoking and slow cooking.

This. Don't forget the rotisserie kit as well. I'll not cook a chicken any other way

Can't go wrong with Weber. Mine's sat outside, sun, rain and snow, for 5 years, and the only bit that doesn't look like new is the screw for the top vent. It's possibly the most well made thing I own (watches aside ofc).

That starts getting a bit more expensive. The Weber rotisserie is another £200.

‘Beer can chicken’ is easy enough. Either with an actual beer can or with the, surprise surprise, Weber ‘beer can’ accessory (which also helps to roast some veggies).

The Weber 'can' (aka £71 Poultry Roaster) doesn't have printing inks and internal plastic coating that may or may not give off nasty fumes when heated.
