British BBQ Society Forums

Hi,

I'm a regular user of a g*s barbecue. Not sure if this place regards such things as sacrilege, but I really need speed and convenience unless it's a special occasion.

Thing is that my gas BBQ is on its last legs - I feel that it's beginning to get risky, so time to get a new one. Where's the best part of the forum to get suggestions? One that looked interesting to me was the Char-Broil Performance 36G - about £400. But I'm interested to know if there's a good time to buy a BBQ - eg. when is promotion season? Any other Char-Broil "TRU Infrared" users around?

Cheers,
Alex

Not sure about gas BBQ's as never owned one but I would say now is offer time as the season for BBQ is over for most British folk but for a true BBQ'er/smoker all year round is BBQ season

Maybe. It doesn't always work like that, though!

Normally September October is a good time but that's for run of the mill units. I would imagine that upper end models dont drop much as they are intended for enthusiasts that don't have a season so to speak.

That makes sense. This is kind of mid-market. I would expect to see deals in the Spring. Nothing much to be gained from discounting them now?

Forget Gas Pellets are the future, buy an Green Mountain Grill, all the convenience of gas and the flavour of charcoal, they are the bomb........Tiny

I'd second that, just as easy as a gasser but so much better flavour
