Quite a while ago, we switched from taking a charcoal bbq and instead took a cheap "household-garden, non-camping" bbg(with the legs/trolley section taken off)and run it via an external bbq point.

It worked well enough but as there's onlt the two of us, it a was still a bit of a faff to be honest(setting up, cleaning etc), so we ended up leaving that in the shed as well!

As we tended to only use a griddle plate on it anyway, we now just use a non-stick griddle pan sat on either our  two burner or single suitcase stoves. We've found it easier to use, versatile, cheap and easy to clean.(although it maybe not as "flash looking", when set up on site.)

Can't fault my Cadac Safari Chef. It's compact, portable, pretty lightweight, and amazingly versatile.

In my experience it tends to take longer to cook than a charcoal or gas BBQ, but it doesn't burn everything the way other BBQs tend to.

Also loads of accessories available..............we have the roasting pan which is amazing (Cadac claim you can roast a whole chicken in it - but I have only ever done chicken portions and roast beef) Next purchase will probably be a pizza stone.

You'd only need a stone to make your own. And only if a ferfectionist. I frequently heat up a bought pizza on any BBQ (even from frozen) but you need to keep the gas at a peep. On the cadac, the plate flat or inverted is fine.
