BBQ season is finally among us as long as the sunny and dry weather remains without a hitch.
Just ahead of National BBQ Week (July 2-11) you may want to stock up on as many burgers and hot dogs as possible, but there's no reason to break the bank to do so.
With the cost of living affecting us all, we've compared high-street supermarkets to find you the best deal for BBQ materials. Here's how much you can expect to pay at each of the big supermarkets:

Aldi
Aldi became the first supermarket in the UK to stop selling disposable barbecues. The move was instated in an attempt top protect the environment and cut the risk of wildfires and accidents.
Because of this, you won't find a disposable barbecue in any of their UK stores or online.
Asda
The money-saving favourite has two options to choose from: a small, compact offer for personal get-togethers or a party-size variant for bigger menus.
The small Bar-Be-Quick Instant Barbecue costs £2.90 whereas the larger option costs £6. There are also a range of grill toppers and charcoal available in store and online.
Marks & Spencer
Following in Aldi's footsteps, Marks & Spencer also pulled disposable barbecues from their shelves in the name of the environment. Anyone looking for grilling materials will have to search elsewhere.
Morrison's
There is a range of materials on offer from lighters and matches to spatulas and smoking chips. You may be able to get all of the utensils and equipment you need but you won't find a disposable barbecue after they too stopped stocking them.
Tesco
Tesco also pulled disposable barbecues from their stores but an extensive range of variants can still be found online. Though their site says, "Out of stock," it';s unclear whether or not it's for only at the time of writing or permanently.
Sainsbury's
Sainsbury's agreed to pull disposable barbecues from their shelves last year but they've reemerged online in multiple sizes. The personal Bar-Be-Quick Instant Barbecue costs £30 whereas the larger option costs £6.
Waitrose
A BBeQuick Family Size Instant BBQ is currently listed on the Waitrose website but customers are unable to purchase it as the item is "Out of stock." If it returns to shelves, you can expect to pay £6.50.
