How To Light a Gas BBQ
To light your BillyOh gas BBQ:
- Turn the valve on the top of your gas tank a 1/4 turn to the 'open' position
- Open your BBQ lid to avoid gas build up and so you can see when the BBQ is lit
- Find the ignition knob (labelled 'ignition burner' or with a lighting bolt symbol on it)
- Push the ignition in and turn it up high
- Press the electronic ignition button until flames are visibly lit
- Turn on your required burners to pre-heat your BBQ
How To Light a Charcoal BBQ
To light your BillyOh charcoal BBQ:
- Remove your charcoal BBQ's grill rack or charcoal tray (smokers)
- Build a small pile of kindling (twigs and bunched up newspaper) with space for air gaps
- Optional: Crumble up firelighters to use as an accelerant
- Build a pyramid of lumpwood or charcoal briquettes around the kindling
- Using a BBQ lighter and keeping a safe distance, light the kindling
- Once the fire has started, replace your lid or charcoal tray and wait until coals are white-hot to pre-heat your grill
How To Clean BBQ
To clean a BBQ start by heating it up. This will carbonise any food debris which can then be scraped off with a scraper or wire brush once cool. Once your BBQ is cool and has been scraped, remove any grill racks and either hand wash with dilute soapy water or run them through your dishwasher.
Remove either your ash-catcher or fat tray and dispose of the contents, then rinse out. For a gas BBQ, use a brush to clean out burner holes. Then use either dilute soapy water or stainless steel cleaning spray and microfibre cloth to clean your grill's exterior and replace all parts. For more, check out our guide to cleaning a BBQ.
What BBQ Is Best?
To decide on what barbecue to buy start with whether you want a charcoal grill, a smoker, or a gas BBQ. For ease of use and maintenance, we suggest our gas BBQs. Whereas, if you're more interested in flavour profiles and have more time and patience with your grill, check out our charcoal BBQs and smokers.
Next, decide how many people you'll be catering for regularly. Is it just your family or friends too? For example, for medium-sized groups, we recommend 3-4 burners. For larger groups and catering, go for a 6-burner gas BBQ. Or, you might be interested in our range of portable and camping BBQs which are highly portable and compact.
