Valiant FIR551 Portable Folding Picnic and Camping BBQ - Black

Product Information

The folding portable charcoal bbq takes less than 5 minutes to set up, is lightweight and easy to carry. This charcoal bbq grill is ideal for use on the move as the heavy-duty charcoal burner is perfect for safe and proper cooking. In addition, the stainless steel design with a robust grill makes it rust-free and easy to clean. And hope is all we can do in the UK as we have notoriously temperamental weather shifts at the blink of an eye. Your basking in the sunshine one minute, then running for cover from the rain, hail, and falling cows (ok maybe not the last one but I wouldn’t be surprised!). The notebook folding grill stands only 30cm tall, so you’ll probably have to lie down to do the cooking, or sit it on top of a bench or something to make it more comfortable. The La Hacienda fire pit and portable charcoal grill is a very handy thing to take with you when you are sleeping out. Whether it be on a fishing trip by the lake or on the local beach, this mobile, multi-purpose product will make the night a lot more comfortable.

Compact in design, with a lightweight structure, folding capability and carry handle, this portable barbecue is easy to carry with you whilst you are on the move. The generous cooking area offers plenty of room to cook up a tasty feast for you and your friends to enjoy, whilst the robust grill withstands high temperatures. Not many budget bbq’s will put up with this much use, not when you compare the pricing anyway, it’s just robust steel plate, that’s all there is to it and the griddle holds up pretty well as you can see.

One of the main selling points of this portable charcoal grill, is the length of the folding legs. Once they are unfolded, the barbecue stands 76cm tall which is a much more comfortable height than having to stoop down or sit on a low ledge like with a lot of portable barbecues. Before we get into other benefits, let’s have a look at this unit up close and that base I really like: The best thing about many of these portable BBQs is that they’re incredibly easy to assemble. Most only take around five to ten minutes to set up, though that doesn’t include getting the charcoal going. The paint on the other hand isn’t the best and started to wear off in the parts with the most heat – that happened after just a few uses but it’s kept on going. It’s not going to affect how the grill works but it would have been nice for the makers to have made it a bit more long lasting, but it is just aesthetics. The notebook folding grill is a steel construction that has been powder coated with heat resistant paint. For such a low price you can’t expect titanium level toughness but this little portable charcoal barbecue isn’t at all flimsy. Notebook Folding Portable Grill Review

Assembly of the Uten stainless steel barbecue is very straightforward as it comes with the legs already attached, so all you really need to do is fit in the grill.There are really three main types of compact portable charcoal bbq – these being the kettle, foldable, and firebowl types. Each have their distinct advantages and disadvantages which I want to cover in a little detail here. Kettle The steel construction of this portable charcoal barbecue is good quality and it all feels very durable so you should get a decent amount of use out of it. As this model is so compact, there are no shelves or anywhere to put plates or sauce bottles or anything like that, it is just a portable charcoal grill. It does come with tongs though that are used for lifting the metal grills when hot and obviously also for handling the food while it’s cooking. The Valiant Portable Folding BBQ makes the perfect addition to beach days, camping trips, and impromptu outdoor get togethers. The kettle portable charcoal bbq is the simplest and best value in my opinion from personally using these for years. If you need compact, the type that fits in a bag, then fine, go for a foldable, otherwise the Weber range last for years and give most of the experience you can expect from a quality bbq smoker or charcoal bbq but reduced in size. Compact kettle charcoal bbq are the most rounded and capable of all types available

A great feature of the CosmoGrill portable charcoal barbecue is the adjustable coal tray that lets you raise or lower it via a crank handle to give you better control of the heat. There is also an easily removable ash tray to help with cleaning up. This tray isn’t the deepest though so you’ll need to make sure you empty it after each cooking session. One of the best things about portable charcoal bbq options is the price. For as little as a fiver you can get a disposable, but for something of quality build you are looking at less than a hundred quid. These are absolute bargains at both ends of the pricing spectrum. To ensure even heat distribution throughout the grill, there are 12 small air vents in the sides that allow a good flow of air from all directions, and this makes cooking multiple pieces of meat evenly a lot easier than with some other portable grills out there. It is ideal for taking down to the park or local beach or lake for a picnic, as long as there aren’t too many people or you might get a few hungry (or hangry) looks. For 2-4 people though, it is big enough to keep enough food on the go to keep everyone happy.Usually we don’t need to change parts in a service but occasionally we may need to change the following: Automatic Air Vents
