Choosing guide

Don’t worry about which model is best. The best gas barbecue is the one that suits your space, the number of people and your cooking style. Before buying, answer a few simple questions:

• Will you be barbecuing for 2 to 4 people, or do you often host larger gatherings?

• Do you have a small terrace, a balcony or a large garden?

• Do you just want basic grilling, or would you like a side burner for sauces and side dishes?

• Do you need to move the barbecue around often, or will it stay in one place?

• Is performance, easy maintenance or more durable material more important to you?

How to choose the right gas barbecue?

A gas barbecue saves time and gives you control

Gas barbecues are popular because they heat up quickly and you can adjust the temperature by turning a knob. If you’re preparing several types of food at once, you’ll appreciate the separate burners and the ability to create different temperature zones. This means you can sear meat more intensely, cook vegetables more gently, and keep ready portions warm on the side.

Choose the number of burners with some leeway. A smaller model will suffice for occasional barbecuing, but for family gatherings, a barbecue with 4 or 5 burners is a better bet . It’s not just the power that matters, but also even heat distribution, a sturdy grill grate, storage surfaces, wheels and a secure gas cylinder connection.

Stainless steel, lava stones or an alternative?

If you want a more durable look and a more modern feel, go for a stainless steel gas barbecue. The stainless steel finish suits both patios and garden seating areas, but it’s still true that regular cleaning and protection from the weather will extend the barbecue’s lifespan the most. A lava stonebarbecue, on the other hand, utilises the radiant heat of lava stones and may appeal to those who prefer more intense grilling.

A gas barbecue is not the same as a contact grill. A contact grill is better suited for indoor use, for quickly preparing toast, meat or vegetables between two plates. A gas barbecue is an outdoor solution with a larger surface area, a lid and better control when barbecuing for more people.

Tip from us

Don’t skimp on space. Abarbecue that’s just right for a regular dinner might be too small for your first big gathering. A more practical model is one where you can create at least two zones: one for searing and the other for slower cooking or keeping food warm.
