Why choose gas grills for home?

Gas grills are becoming increasingly popular in Greek households thanks to a series of advantages such as quick ignition (ignition within a few minutes), precise temperature regulation, minimal smoke and ease of cleaning, as you avoid ashes and dust.

Compared to charcoal grills, use is cleaner, safer and faster. Also, due to easy maintenance and little smoke, they are ideal for use on a veranda or small balcony.

 

Types of gas grills for the home

There are different types of grills, depending on the use and space:

• Wheel-mounted 3-4 burner grills, with the ability to move, side burner and powerful stainless steel burners.
• High-quality built-in grills, suitable for outdoor kitchens or permanent installations.
• Portable/compact grills, ideal for a balcony or a cottage with limited space.
• Grills with or without a side burner for parallel cooking.
• Plancha or griddle gas plates, for grilling vegetables, seafood and meat on a flat surface, popular choices at BBQ Specialist.

 

What you need to know before you buy

Carefully evaluate these features:

• Number & power of burners (BTU or kW): for high power, look for over 12kW.
• Grill material: cast iron (for better sear and durability) or stainless steel (easier to maintain).
• Side burner for parallel cooking of sauces or salads.
• Size & portability: wheels and heavy construction mean stability but less flexibility.
• Materials & weather resistance: stainless steel sides, aluminum or stainless steel lid, rust protection.
• Maintenance & cleaning: easy access to grease traps, removable parts.

 

Tips for using and safety of gas grills at home

• Correct gas cylinder connection: check hoses, valves, sealing, and available partition for ventilation.
• Cleaning after each use: removing grease, cleaning grills & grease traps, nozzle control.
• Burner control: maintaining an even flame, controlling temperatures by point.
• Using accessories: digital or analog thermometer, tongs, protective covers, plancha plates, spits and lighting – all enhance safety and cooking results.
