    My son of hibachi/grilleto is nearly dead after 6 years good use. Loved it’s versatility, ability to put away hot (warm really) and it’s just all round awesomeness.
    It would appear it’s no longer made so I want a replacement of similar ilk. Any recommendations?

    Another vote for cadac safari chef. It’s in front of me right now, just done basic sausage and burger camp bbq. Will fire it up in the morning to cook some pastries on the pizza stone. Fits into a neat bag and can run of a cylinder or little cannisters.

    Weber Go Anywhere

    Weber Go Anywhere here. Well made and functional. My only observation would be that the cooking surface is relatively close to the coals. So indirect cooking or you need to keep an eye on things to prevent food incineration. Handy size for stashing under the motorhome.

    I inherited a Weber go anywhere and it really is brilliant, no way I could afford one new though.

    Had one of these for years, it was 80% as good as the Weber for 25% of the price.

    The cobb is a great little oven, very good at what it does but it’s not a great BBQ.

    Bought a safari chef plus pizza stone last week. Fantastic. Cooked 10 pizza on it yesterday as had loads of friends round. Did some veggie kebabs as a snack tonight. Excellent quality.
    Taking it to the beach tomorrow.

    Webber Go Anywhere here too. We’ve used it more in the last year than we have our big one in the last 6 years! Though big one got deployed for friends round last night.

    Had a son of hibachi, then got a lotus grill https://www.lotusgrilluk.com/

    Ready to cook in a few mins, cooks food gently and brilliantly. My only regret not going for the XL version.

    Had a look at the Go Anywhere in John Lewis, seemed pretty flimsy given the price. I’m looking for a semi-portable one myself (good enough for 6 ppl in a garden but can also take camping for 2 ppl). Ideally I’d want something with telescopic legs but no one seems to do one 🙁
    That said I’m surprised how good some of the disposable BBQs are (although pound shop ones are pretty pants), not sure I could justify a Weber just for camping use.

    I noticed the metal wall is rather thin too, but it seems to hold up well judging from all the usage. 😛

    Apparently this is being raved about to accompany all sort of BBQ.

    I know a couple of people who have had theirs 5-7 years and still going strong. Ours has been in and out of our van, all round the UK, over the last year and still looks great, no dents etc. It’s easily paid for itself over the last year compared to £5 disposalables (plus not adding to landfill) and it has come into its own for the last 2.5 months whilst we have been waiting for our oven replacement part to come in!

    We inherited my folks go anywhere when they got a Cobb a couple of years ago, works well and still looks in good nick so I don’t think there’s much issue with durability.

    Just swapped to a go anywhere gas as it’s easier to use in the van die to cooling down as soon as you turn off the burner, canisters take up way less space than charcoal for a long holiday and some french sites don’t allow charcoal BBQs.

    I do like the weber q’s, out of my budget tho.
    The anywhere gas looks good but the new ones aren’t so popular? new grate I think. Hows yours hoppy?

    That lidl NI site had Landemann q a-likes for seventy quid that looked interesting

    Cadac carri chef 2 here. Cooks brilliantly but has had a tendency to blow out a bit too easily

    Weber Smokey Joe.

    Had it for about 15 years as main BBQ and portable. Only replaced as main BBQ when I bought a Weber Mastertouch a couple of years ago.

    Smokey Joe still used if we’re just grilling for the 3 of us at home.

    For camping the Go Anywhere is probably better due to its shape (i.e. better for packing).

    That said, I quite fancy a gas one for the beach – Weber Q series or a Napoleon.

    As a portable it works really well, not quite as good as a charcoal in terms of cook quality but certainly acceptable, cleaner, quick to temperature and cool down for packing away afterwards.
