Things to consider before you buy a gas barbeque
Why choose a camping gas barbeque?
- Gas barbeques can be used anywhere and don’t need an electrical point. Unlike charcoal BBQs, gas versions heat up straight away, so there’s no waiting to reach the right temperature.
- Gas barbeque are easy to use. You can control the temperature and adjust it to whatever you’re cooking. Which means food is less likely to burn or be raw in the middle.
- Gas barbeques can handle windy weather and usually come with windshields and extra weather protection.
- Gas barbeques can also keep going for ages, with gas cylinders and cartridges lasting a long time. They’re also safer than charcoal barbeques as they don’t produce any ash, which can be a fire risk on dry ground and blow into people’s faces.
- Gas barbeques are easy to clean. Outwell portable gas grills come with an easily removable grill shelf, which you can take out after use to wash.
