Which camping barbecue is the best?

Every camper is guaranteed to always have too little of one thing: space. That's why a barbecue with a small pack size but a wide range of options is particularly important when camping. Barbecues that are easy to combine and have multiple functions are therefore ideal.

The Petromax barbecue and fire bowl offers the ideal flexibility you need when camping. When disassembled, it has a height of just 5 cm and can therefore be stowed away in any space. In addition to its use as a fire bowl, you can cook all kinds of meat, fish and vegetables on the domed grill plate. On top of that, you can also easily fry your morning fried egg on it.

Even more versatile and flexible is the Petromax Atago. It is both a grill and a perfectly fitting cooking station for the Dutch Oven. So you can do without an additional camping stove. If you need a warming fire, the Atago can also be converted into a practical fire bowl. Thanks to the low-smoke combustion and downward insulation, you won't disturb the neighbors to your right and left. So you have a device that offers you everything you need for your camping trip. You can get it ready for use with a flick of the wrist or fold it down to a practical transport height of 14 cm.

Find out which of the two barbecues is the best camping barbecue for you.

How big should a barbecue be?

The size of the grill depends on how many hungry stomachs you want to feed, but also on how much space you can give it.

Whether one grill grate is 10 cm larger than the other doesn't matter to your charcoal or the fire, nor does the cleaning time change noticeably. Therefore, if space allows, you can opt for a larger barbecue.

If your space is limited, but you would still like a barbecue for a larger number of people, the barbecue and fire bowl is the ideal solution.

TheBarbecue and fire bowl is available in three sizes. Even the largest of these (56 cm) can be reduced to a minimum storage height of 5 cm after grilling and therefore takes up incomparably little space.

Where does the grill come from?

In the original sense, grilling is the cooking of meat, fish or other foods in direct heat radiation.

It is something that people have been doing for centuries - even if it doesn't have much to do with barbecuing as we know it today.

Ultimately, every barbecue is a construct that harks back to the most original of all barbecue histories, and they have been around since man first discovered fire.

What is the best way to barbecue?

Good things take time. Barbecuing over an open fire is one of the most original ways of preparing food. It takes time to gather the firewood, get the fire going and cook the food until it is juicy and cooked through.

Take your time, because barbecuing brings people together around the fire and is the epitome of conviviality. Barbecuing is particularly enjoyable in large groups.

The consciously shared barbecue is what makes time stand still. There are far too few moments like this in these fast-moving times.

That's why the best way to barbecue is actually the one that brings together the people we care about and lets us create unforgettable moments together.

How much does a barbecue cost?

If you want to buy a barbecue, you are faced with a vast range of products. A price guide can be helpful. However, the price segment actually varies greatly depending on your type of adventure.

Petromax offers different types of barbecues for your individual needs.
