Refresh your BBQ

While everyone is focused on enduring this cold, gloomy weather, look to the future and plan to make your next Summer something spectacular. How is the old BBQ? Has she seen better days? Would dad love a new BBQ (hint: he probably does)? There are plenty of great deals on BBQs in Winter. It is the perfect time to upgrade.

 

The Snag Centrepiece

At the heart of most family affairs and shindigs you have the all commanding barbie itself. A place of grazing, socialising and most importantly culinary delights, the BBQ is something that should never be overlooked when re-styling your alfresco or entertaining area.

 

A few key items to consider when buying a new BBQ are as follows.

 

Serving Size

When considering a new BBQ purchase it is very important to consider how many people you plan on serving. A two burner BBQ would be suitable to cook for your small family of 4 – 6 people, however you may need to go larger if your get togethers call for it. Also, a big BBQ is a fantastic conversation piece. (Let those neighbours know who’s boss).

Portability

Not all Australian gatherings take place at home which is why its important to plan for those Aussie outback camping cookouts. If you are the type to travel regularly then maybe a portable BBQ is for you. Portable BBQs are also fantastic for smaller homes and balconies. 
On the flip side if you only plan to entertain at home a built-in BBQ is ideal and can even be plumbed directly into your gas lines.

Accessories

Some BBQ culinary experts prefer to be the MacGyver at every family gathering, getting by with just the simplest tools such as a single pair of tongs, while others may want to be the proverbial “Inspector Gadget” with all the fancy tools & matching accessories they can get their hands on. When buying your BBQ consider the accessories available and what you feel you will need. For instance, what cover would you like? Would you like a new matching apron? Or if you are cooking over hot coals, do you need some grilling mitts?

Style

Over the years we have seen many new flashy stainless-steel BBQs hit the market, making it harder & harder to impress while entertaining. Something that can give a BBQ a lot of flair could range from glass top BBQ lids to bright accent colours and patterns over panelling.

Flavour

If flavour is your highest priority, then you may consider a charcoal BBQ which gives your food a smokier and more authentic BBQ flavour. A traditional BBQ while not as authentic is a much more versatile Australian staple which will make large gatherings easier to cook for.
