Frequently asked questions
Which type of barbecue should I buy?
Gas offers speed and precise control, while charcoal gives a traditional live-fire experience. Kamados, pellet grills and planchas suit more specialised cooking styles. Start with our charcoal versus gas guide.
How large should my barbecue be?
Think about how many people you usually cook for, rather than only the number of burners. Check the usable cooking area and leave enough safe space around the barbecue.
Can I cook with the lid closed?
Yes. A closed lid helps retain heat and makes indirect cooking possible. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and read our barbecuing methods guide.
How often should I clean my barbecue?
Brush cooking grates after use and periodically inspect grease trays, burners and air vents. Always allow the barbecue to cool and follow the care instructions for your model.
Do you deliver large barbecues?
Yes. Some larger products require pallet delivery and may need a suitable delivery date. See our delivery information before ordering.
