By contrast, the least useful but most compact are the tabletop versions. The Crusader Table Top Gas BBQ is small, easy to store, and is VERY cheaply priced. So you’ll need to make a decision somewhere between ease of use and cost. A solid balance of the two is the Campingaz gas stove–well worth a look that. What gas bottle do they take? The iQ portable gas barbecue has a lot of the features we expect from the top models these days, such as a push button ignition system that sparks up straight away, and fold out side shelves for keeping your ingredients, plates, and other necessities close at hand as you create your flame grilled masterpieces.
Freestanding portable gas bbq’s offer similar freedom but often don’t come with a bbq side table section as well as the obvious, they can’t be moved when warm or put away. This detracts from their appeal unless you’re not in a rush of course and then letting your bbq cool naturally is no problem at all. Using this grill has to be just about the biggest advantage when compared to the other options out there – being on it’s own trolley rather than table top gives far more freedom, also when you compare it to the Campingaz Party Grill 200 Camping Stove or the Cadac Carri Chef 2 BBQ and Chef Pan Combo the Weber Traveler is still miles ahead because of the portability that comes from being on a trolley vs fixed legs. It’s a bit of a sell so ignore that but watch how easy it is to setup – I’ve fast forwarded you to save 30 seconds wasted life: The Blue Flame power system by Campingaz� offers accelerated pre-heating, optimal heat distribution and significantly less flare ups by design. The curved lines of the stand, handles, and outer shell, all complement each other and give the Weber Q1000 a stylish, modern look that certainly makes it stand out from other portable grills and is in direct competition with the iQ Portable Gas BBQ but blows it’s competitor away on absolutely everything in mind except price and here’s why: Its 47cm diameter is a good size that sits nicely between practicality and portability, and the variable heat settings combined with the different cooking surfaces give you a wide range of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Where this model stands out though is on the quality of the food it produces. Char-broil’s ‘TRU-infrared cooking system’ that prevents flare ups and ensures that your food is cooked evenly. This also helps to maintain moisture in your food so you get a nice juicy steak and not a dried out old piece of leather. This is a 2000w single flame Portable gas bbq and can produce a fair bit of heat for something so compact. It will boil a litre of water in under 4.5 minutes and cook 6 large sausages in an equally fast time, so you can get a hotdog down your kids to keep them quiet while you cook the larger part of the meal. The heat is controlled by a knob on the front of the barbecue and it is fully adjustable from a very low flame to a high heat. This Portable gas bbq can be used with gas bottles and tanks of various sizes, and there are even places to hold the gas tanks in place in the middle of the lower shelf. This shelf is also a handy place to keep your condiments, spices and sauces, so they are always at arm’s reach when you’re cooking. Of course, you could also just have your beer sitting there too. The only negative thing I can say about this wonderful portable barbecue is that there are some lightweight plastic parts and only time will tell how long they hold up. The legs are also lightweight, but being aluminium they will last a long time.
The only thing that I didn’t like about this barbecue’s design was Weber’s decision to go with small propane tanks as preset fuel source and their decision not to include a free tank with the product. The makers have done a great job of getting the most cooking area out of a product that only measures 59.7 x 68.6 x 52.1 cm, with enough space on the easy to clean grill to comfortably cook for four people, although you might have to cook one course at a time if you all have large appetites. Now, I feel I may come across as a bit of a weirdo for saying that a portable gas barbecue is beautiful, but I can’t help it, this thing looks fantastic! The only unit better than this in my mind is the Weber Traveler Portable gas bbq but I don’t feel they compete as that is a far more expensive and portable unit (if you need wheels then well worth a look).Having said that the company do sell the canisters separately with their own branding, or you can choose to buy their converter kit so you can attach a larger fuel source via a hose. I’ve provided more information about this on the Weber Traveler section The price tag may also put some people off, but as with most things, you get what you pay for and this portable gas barbecue is the best out there. Cadac Carri Chef 2 BBQ and Chef Pan Combo Review When the fun is over, this Portable gas bbq breaks down as easy as it goes up and it has also been designed to be easy to clean, so you won’t need to be scrubbing away for hours at the end of the da. The chef pan can just be wiped down with kitchen roll or something similar. Both the hot plate and the grill are removable for cleaning and they come off without trouble. Cleaning them is equally as straight forward with only the use of soapy water.
