Barbeques are a nation obsession in Australia and its getting that way in the UK. Now we don’t get a many sunny days as those lucky people down there in Oz but thousands of Brits do love to toss a few shrimps on the barbi most weekends during the summer months.
Choosing a barbeque is never an easy task and the first big question either do you choose either (a) a gas barbeque or (b) a coal fired barbeque. This divides the nation with traditionalists loving the smokey flavours that old school coal gives you and modernists plumping for the more simple ( and quicker ) gas powered units.
Next is the size you want , the biggest trend in barbeques of late has been portable barbeques with them now accounting for almost 30% of the market. People are getting more and more used to eating outside and taking their barbeques to the beach or the park. Modern potable units are very light , get up to cooking temperature quickly and dissipate the heat in no time meaning it can be carried or put in the back of a car without risk of fire.
If you want to buy a barbecue this year for yourself or are looking at gifts for a budding cook you should spend some time online and check out all the options.
