Char-Broil Gas2Coal Hybrid Grill - 3 Burner Gas & Coal Barbecue Grill, Black Finish

Product Information

The first thing you'll notice is that because you're only using the gas burners for 10 minutes at a time, you only need a small, 5KG bottle, which can be stored neatly in the barbeque's base. It should also mean the gas will last much longer than when being used with a typical grill.

Dual-fuel barbecues, also sometimes referred to as hybrid barbecues, have been on the market for a little while now, and it looks like they are starting to gain in popularity. They come in a couple of different forms and at a range of price points too. There's lots of storage underneath the grill so you can squeeze in everything you might need, and it's all protected by two full-coverage doors. There's also a side table next to the charcoal grill as well as hooks for your grilling tools, and a handy built-in bottle opener.Unlike some other barbecues we've tested, this one has four wheels on the base rather than two, which should make it nice and easy to move around your garden. All of the grills are dishwasher-safe too, meaning less time scrubbing and more time relaxing.

The assembly was fairly straightforward, with all components labelled and all bolts and screws in a single container. We've rounded up a few dual-fuel barbecues that we've recently tested, as well as some of the pros and cons of these types of barbecues, to help you make a more informed decision.
