The 18th National BBQ Week: Choose Your Weber BBQ

Get your BBQs at the ready!  The 26^th May until the 1^st June will see the nation go grilling crazy for the 18^th National BBQ Week!

Welcome in the barbequing season in style by throwing a BBQ to remember. With the warmer weather and lighter nights upon us now is the perfect time for some al fresco dining.

Most people stick to the traditional burgers, sausages and chicken on their barbies, however why not use BBQ Week as an opportunity to try some experimenting. Seafood works brilliantly on a BBQ, especially when covered in herbs and lemon juice and wrapped in foil. Delicious!

If you’re not a seafood fan, why not try marinating your meats instead to add extra flavour. You can BBQ your deserts too! Try barbequed pineapple or banana with a large scoop of ice cream – perfect for a warm spring evening!

Now for the most important part – the BBQ! Having the right barbecue can make a big difference to the taste & aromas of the food. At Birstall we have a fantastic selection of Weber BBQs in a range of funky colours and styles. Here we examine some of our favourites.

Weber Spirit E210

Weber Gas Barbecues are synonymous with quality, durability and flavour. The Weber Spirit E210 barbecue is the finest entry level full size grill on the market. Fitted with Weber’s own porcelain-enamelled flavouriser bars, this BBQ produces a real BBQ flavour on a gas grill, without all the mess of a charcoal model.

All Weber gas barbecues are manufactured with “V” shaped bars under the cooking area; which are angled at the right degree to vaporize meat juices and marinates, just like charcoal.

Weber One Touch

Weber’s charcoal kettle barbecues have become the epitome of outdoor cooking. First invented in 1952 by Chicago born George Steven; the principle of these dome shaped BBQs has remained the same since. Featuring a lid which seals in all the delicious barbecue flavours, food prepared on the Weber One Touch is barbecued to perfection from the top down with no flare ups and less turning.

One of the main disadvantages of charcoal barbecues is the cleaning afterwards. The Weber One Touch comes with the One Touch cleaning system which makes cleaning the barbecue so easy.

 Weber Q2200 Midi

If you want all the performance of a Weber gas barbecue but in a smaller, more compact package; look no further than the Q2200. This portable gas barbecue comes with a tall lid for improved cooking performance, and the ability to cook large roasts, big chickens and turkeys to perfection. The thermometer on the lid shows accurate cooking temperatures inside the BBQ while your food is cooking. The barbecue sits on a stylish stand with a gas bottle screen and has fold out tables on both sides.

At Birstall we have an extensive range of Weber charcoal, gas and portable barbecues, view our entire Weber range today and order your brand new barbecue to be delivered ready for National BBQ Week! Happy barbecuing!
