Portable barbecues are the best summer companion if you like to spend your days by the beach or your weekends camping in the countryside. Unlike larger garden barbecues made for remaining stationery, portable barbecues are a much more travel-friendly version to make sure you can still cook tasty barbecued foods while away from home.
But even in the portable category, there’s still many to choose from. Is a charcoal one better than gas? And should you go for a kettle BBQ over an open grill or kamado-style model? According to Louise Perry-Warnes, founder of outdoor catering company Flames & Feasts, “Gas barbecues are easier and quicker to use: just turn them on and they’re ready to cook on quickly, But the joy of cooking really begins over charcoal or wood. It takes more time and care but there’s something ritualistic about it and it’s much more fun.”
