“May you always be surrounded by good friends and a great BBQ.”Dave Anderson
At Horkans, we pride ourselves on our high quality products. Nowhere is this more evident than in our BBQ range. Let us introduce you to some of the range - sink your teeth into the sizzling, smoking and mouth-watering BBQ.
In our BBQ area we have selected a range of grills to meet the needs of all, whether a grill novice or master. We want grilling to be effortless and we have ensured this is reflected in our barbecue range. Living in an apartment with limited space? We have the grill for you. Owner of a large backyard? You’ve come to the right place. We recognise the importance of selecting the right utensil to feed your friends and family and hence we have chosen only the best brands to fulfill your needs. Looking for the answer to the age-old question, gas or charcoal? Our answer is both! Read on to find out about some of the key features of our range of gas and charcoal barbecues.
Gas Barbecue
The gas barbecue has been reinvented in recent years. It no longer represents a simple outdoor gas hob, but rather a grill with the ability to cook the tastiest, juiciest and most succulent of flame-grilled food, with that traditional mouth-watering barbecue flavour. At Horkans we stock some of the best gas barbecues on the market. Our range includes products from the most innovative and experienced grill companies.
Char-Broil
Char-Broil describe themselves as a "a leader in gas, charcoal and electric grills", since 1948. They stock an exceptional range of gas barbecues and here at Horkans we are very proud to be bringing them to you. Among the range available are:
- Professional grill series, which offers an innovative feature known as Tru-Infrared cooking.
- The 'Big Easy'. Its features include being a smoker, roaster and grill, all in one. It also offers Tru-Infrared cooking and the ability to cook up to 11kg of meat with no oil.
- The Gas2Coal barbecue. A hybrid grill that easily converts from gas to charcoal in three simple steps and in less than 60 seconds.
Tru-Infrared cooking distributes heat evenly across the grill surface, creating consistent grilling temperatures. It creates a barrier between your food and the flames, hence ensuring fewer flare-ups. Most importantly, it heats your food at the grill’s surface, retaining flavor other grills let escape. This gives you up to 50% juicier food, while using 30% less gas. You can check out the full range of Char-Broil gas barbecues here.
OutdoorChef Ascona 570G
The Ascona 570 guarantees unforgettable barbecue experiences and impresses with high functionality and user-friendliness. There's many reasons why the Ascona 570 G is a bestseller - here's a few:
- From grilling to cooking or baking, the unique funnel system ensures even heat distribution inside the kettle and prevents harmful flare-ups as the burners are completely shielded. Rather than catching fire, dripping fat runs along the porcelain-enamelled funnel into the collecting tray under the kettle. Making sure that nothing can burn.
- Hosts can spend more time with their guests while barbecue specialities are grilled perfectly all round – with no turning required. Some of the fat and meat juice dripping onto the funnel evaporates, which gives meat, fish, vegetables and more that unmistakable barbecue flavour.
Charcoal Barbecue
The charcoal barbecue is the traditional way of grilling outdoors. It comes complete with the authentic sounds and aromas of a smoky barbecue, evoking that mouth-watering craving for BBQ goodness. At Horkans, we stock a range of the best charcoal BBQ's.
Char-Broil
The Char-Broil charcoal barbecue we stock is the Gas2Coal barbecue, mentioned above. It is a hybrid grill that easily converts from gas to charcoal in three simple steps and in less than 60 seconds. If you can't choose between gas or charcoal, then this is the grill for you.
