What makes a great BBQ?

Cooking Systems – Better BBQ’s generally have two or more separate burners (not just control knobs) that allow greater control of heat. BBQ’s with one burner don’t allow you to control heat as well as bbq’s with multiple burners and may result in hot and cold spots on the cooking surface.
The best gas BBQ’s quickly flash the drippings, eliminating flare-ups. The best grills use a steel bar system that funnels the grease away from the burner flames, greatly reducing flare-ups.
Solid construction – A good well built bbq is a must. Choose a bbq made of high grade stainless steel. Also try and get a backed-on, porcelain-enamel finish or a good quality stainless steel.
Grills – The best grills are made of cast iron, stainless steel or porcelain-coated aluminium or cast iron.
Cleaning – A good bbq is easy to clean and maintain.
Safety – A good BBQ lights effortlessly, controls heat easily and has handles that stay cool to the touch.
Added features – optional side burners are a great addition as is a rotisserie. Flip-up side tables give you extra space for food preparation. Also a built in thermometer is nice extra touch.
Warranty – make sure your BBQ comes with a good warranty and has a good service record.
