recommend me a portable BBQ

For camping, evenings on the beach etc
Must be portable, easy to clean/use etc
Thanks

I have a Cobb and find it damn good. Actually using it most of the time now.

Cobb again. Damned expensive but a nice thing to use.

That Cobb is very nice innit! 😀

Ya, very expensive.

How portable, the smallest webber Q would be my choice with a small bottle. (don’t bother with the gas vs burning food arguments)

Has a fire/heatproof bag so you just fold it up and take it home

If you want something on the cheaper side this one is perfect – been using mine for over a year camping etc and it lives in the boot of the car.

Ace little BBQ and folds up so small it can live in the boot of the car.

Been eyeing up these too to take the beach, fancy the weber charcoal one as I’ve already got a camping stove.

Son of hibachi…just make sure you tighten up all the screws and bolts before tui use it for the first time…

Someone had to!

Bought an old Hibachi that looks something very much like this. Great little thing and cost considerably less than the very sexy looking Cobb.

Just bought a bucket barbecue and used it on the beach last week. You don’t neeed charcoal, just use a bit of kindling and some logs. Perfect.

If it’s got gas, it’s not a bbq.

I used one of these a while back, not the most stable but otherwise very good.

Son of Hibachi is ace if you want to pack up and leave quickly.

One of these….

… crate of Stella. job lot of economy burgers from Iceland. ketchup. Job jobbed!

Be sure not to remove any of the above from whichever beauty spot you’re cooking in. That’s what “they” employ “rangers” for.

And if anyone disputes this simple fact, set Tyson, your staffy on them

That’s really a grill not a BBQ

Take that up with Aus – chuck another shrimp on the barbie – tralia

Honestly done both only one I’d carry round and thats the gas, also only one I’d cook on and thats the gas. Did 1/3 of chistmas dinner on ours this year and used the gas one loads even when in the UK. The art is in the cooking not the burning.

I’ve done every Xmas meal I’ve cooked the last 15 years on gas but the one in the house.

Not a real bbq but have a look at cadac safari chef, multi purpose facility but ltd capacity (single gas ring) and it cooks more by indirect heat than flame, pleased with ours – so far bbq, frying plate and stir fry used successfully

Probably everyone in the universe but me has known this for ever, but these things take a lot of the pain out of using charcoal …

^^ Hibachi does that, too, without you having to carry an extra bucket around with you.

+1. COBB END OF.

Had ours for years, bought the full kit and used every part of it, whole roast chicken, leg of lamb, full english breakfasts on it, usual BBQ fodder. Its ace.

Weber Smokey Joe.

It is both a BBQ (not just a grill), uses charcoal and I have a chimney starter for it. Oh, and it doubles as a portable firepit.

It’s only failing is that it isn’t a Cobb….

Cobb again!

Doesn’t burn picnic benches/grass/canal boat decks, ultra fast startup if you use the coconut husk fuel, and you can cook whole chickens/joints with roast veg in the moat.

Search ebay for a esbit bbq. I have one in the back of my camper. Made from stainless and folds up tiny, in to its own bag. Oh and its a proper bbq to!

Weber q range

Thanks
Those Cobb BBQs look ideal but they are very expensive, are they really worth the extra money?

They look great and thought £99 wasn’t bad I was expecting £200.

You’re all so wrong. Weber go- anywhere. Got one ten yrs ago for my campervan. Still going strong despite using it as a firepit on cold nights and filling with logs/ wood after the BBQ.

Webber binned it and stopped making it a few yrs ago but just started again with a new model. It’s better than the smokey joe as it’s rectangular and has a bigger grill space and is easier to store. It packs up and you can store charcoal inside, us controllable as it has a lid/ vents etc and you can use it as an oven. Try and get an old one if you can, it’s prob better made and will last for yes.

Oh they do new grills etc and other spares for them as well. Built to last.

Have a look at backpackinglights honey & hive stoves. Honestly brilliant. Not that expensive, the hive works as a bbq the honey as a great wood burner. Many a campsite I’ve had great comments on it, especially by the staff normally. Some whinger has said I’ve got a fire, talked ymto the site staff… They pop down and say its the best safest thing they have seen. Get us more wood and join in the chat. Try one, never regret it.

I’ve been looking at one of these….not convinced but probably worth a punt.

Folding BBQ, mebbe a centimetre thick when stowed, fire up the charcoal and chuck on the grill, away you go – twenty quid from here, pretty sure we paid less for much the same on Amazon.

Had one for a couple of years. Neat, simple, well made, works fine and not insanely expensive.

Cobb ordered from Lakeland £99 with a free bag of peg for the Mrs, she’ll be right chuffed.
