Benefits of Buying a BBQ

Outdoor entertaining

That first BBQ meal is the official start of summer! If you’re cooking for the family or having friends over, a BBQ always puts people in good spirits. Laying a spread of delicious grilled goods on the garden table brings everyone rushing out! Upgrade your garden BBQ parties with some stylish new dining sets, a gazebo for shelter, and some patio heating for after-hours entertaining.

Versatile cooking

It’s not just bangers and burgers you can cook on a BBQ – there’s loads of choice when it comes to outdoor cooking, from deliciously smoky veg to roast dinners and more!

Outstanding flavour

Cooking over an open flame gives your food a distinctive and delicious smoky flavour, especially if you’re using charcoal or a smoker BBQ. Take your cooking to a new level with a brilliant BBQ.

Types of BBQs

Gas BBQs

A gas BBQ is quick to light and easy to maintain, using gas to immediately heat up for spur-of-the-moment BBQs! As long as there’s gas in the tank, you can start cooking delicious food with the flick of a switch.

Charcoal BBQs

If you’re serious about outdoor cooking, a charcoal BBQ is the perfect choice. As well as being the traditional method, a charcoal BBQ imparts a beautiful smoky flavour to your food. Check out our BBQ accessories for those essential chimney starters as well as a variety of charcoal to get you started!

Masonry BBQs

A masonry BBQ creates an impressive outdoor fixture for outdoor cooking, with multiple levels and built-in features like a rotisserie and storage for your charcoal and kindling.

Kettle BBQs

Perfect for those who want great quality BBQ food in a compact space, a kettle BBQ is perfect for fast grilling as well as slow cooking, with a handy lid and vents for you to control the heat. They’re nice and easy to clean and an ideal BBQ for beginners and grill masters alike.

Smoker BBQs

Take your food to flavourful new heights with a smoker BBQ, which uses woodchips to make your food deliciously tender and juicy. If you want to make a statement at your next garden party, a smoker BBQ can cook your items low and slow for outstanding results.

Portable BBQs

If you’re after a lightweight and compact BBQ for camping and travel, our range of portable BBQs ticks all the boxes and they’re well suited for small outdoor spaces too.

FAQs

How do I choose the right BBQ?

There’s plenty of choice when it comes to choosing your BBQ: if you’re short on space in your garden or storage, a kettle BBQ is a handy option, or even a portable BBQ can work for small cooking tasks. If you use your BBQ a lot, a gas BBQ is a straightforward cooking option, whilst charcoal, masonry and smoker BBQs are perfect for the well-seasoned BBQ maestro.

Can I use a BBQ in a small outdoor space?

You can choose a smaller BBQ for compact outside spaces, but always be mindful of neighbours. If you’re renting, it’s always a good idea to check your rental agreement to see what the rules are on outdoor cooking. If you are in a built-up area, a gas BBQ will emit less smoke than charcoal or masonry BBQs.

How do I maintain a BBQ?

You should keep your BBQ clean with a BBQ cleaner, especially before it goes away for winter. Storing your cooker under a BBQ cover will prevent damage and rust, and make sure you empty used coals out before you use your BBQ again. The easiest way to clean your grill is to scrub it with a BBQ brush whilst it’s hot.
