Five best portable barbecues
Grill on the go with these impressive devices
1. Bar-Be-Quick Dual Firepit Barbecue
More stylish than your average barbecue, this little device comes with a grill but doubles up as a firepit. The legs simply fold under when you want to put it away.
2. Traeger Ranger Pellet Grill
At the upper end of the market, Traeger’s impressive grill and smoker has a box on the left that you fill with wood pellets, and a dial to control temperature. It’s heavy, though, and requires electricity.
3. Weber Smokey Joe Premium Charcoal Barbecue
Easy to assemble and use, this sturdy Weber model is light and has a useful carry handle. It’s also a bigger option if you’re catering for a group.

5. CampinGaz Party Grill 400 CV gas stove
