Long weekend is fast approaching, and this means the start of the barbecue season. What kind of barbecue should we choose so it will suit our needs and serve its purpose for at least a few seasons?
What to pay attention to when choosing a grill?
First of all, it's worth considering what shape of equipment we are looking for. Round grills are absolute classics. They are convenient and take up little space. However, if we plan to cook for a larger group of people, a good choice will be a larger grill with a square grate. On some models we can also boil potatoes or fry vegetables. You should also pay attention to grills equipped with wheels and a lid. The most important aspect, however, is the fuel with which the grill will be powered.

Charcoal grill
Charcoal grills are the most popular choice. These are by far the simplest to build, plus we can easily store and transport them, for example, when going to a plot of land. Having one piece of equipment that we can take anywhere with us is a big saving. Charcoal grills are available with a number of additional features that can make it easier for us to transport them or reduce the time it takes to prepare a meal.

Gas grill
Gas grills are distinguished by the fact that they do not create smoke and we can regulate the grilling temperature in them. They can also be larger and thus have more burners. As a result, the flavors of meat and vegetables will not intermingle. Gas grills also have a number of other conveniences , such as an additional work surface, an adjustable grate, a side burner and necessary shelves for storing utensils. Among gas grills we can find models on which we can prepare a meal for up to 16 people.

Electric grill
If you want to use the grill all year round, the best choice will be an electric model. This type of equipment is suitable for cooking both indoors and in the garden. Like gas grills, they do not produce smoke, and the grilling temperature is easy to control. Gas grills are usually compact, so it will be easy for us to store it, plus, we can place its grate on the kitchen counter.
