How to choose a grill for the most delicious barbecue? Now let's figure it out, having learned about all its types.
Barbecue brazier material. Expensive doesn't mean better?
- Steel barbecue is the most common. Lightness and reasonable price are its main advantages. There is one drawback, but a significant one: even the thickest steel will ever burn out.
- Cast iron brazier is the leader. Protect it from rain and avoid sudden temperature changes. It will last forever. This brazier has two drawbacks: heavy weight and high cost. But the kebab is fried faster, more evenly and tastes better.
- Brazier made of rolled steel. Such do-it-yourself braziers are the most economical. But because of their material, they do not last long, quickly fade and corrode.
The size of the barbecue. How not to miscalculate?
- The longer the brazier, the more skewers will fit. But you have to pay for the pleasure - we pour 2 times more coal into a long box than into a regular one.
- You can't really play with its width. It is dictated by the size of the skewers - about 30 cm.
- But the correct depth, which affects the quality of roasting meat, is important. So that the kebab is cooked quickly, fried evenly and not burnt, choose a depth of 12-15 cm.
- The height is matched to the growth of the main barbecue. The "gold" standard is portable in 60-70 cm.
Barbecue designs. That's what's important!
- If you cook meat on your own site, choose a portable grill with a monolithic structure. The whole summer he will stand in the yard, and spend the winter in the utility room.
- A wonderful option for a picnic - a compact and lightweight collapsible model. The fewer assemblage points, the more reliable the device. The fold-out, which is usually kept at home, is not suitable for permanent use.

- The most luxurious option for home (and not only) is a full-size (stationary) brazier with a classic-massive appearance. Such a unit is often equipped with irreplaceable additions - wheels, a cover, a dust collector, and ventilation holes, a grill grate and other "chips". The oven by its very appearance promises a delicious picnic!

An electric kebab maker is like an e-book. Suitable, but the original will not replace. Advantages of barbecuing on an electric grill: fast heating and uniform, stable heat, automatic rotation of the skewers, the ability to use it indoors. Cons: Higher cost and still different taste of meat. Although, using liquid smoke helps to make the kebab more "right".
