I have been considering buying one of these for quite a while! Why do I need one?
Helpful info would be much appreciated! Thank you

A little light reading. Some might be of use to you.

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

I had the original HP version, and found it is good when the temperature is not too cold, as butane does not burn well at temperatures around 4 degC or below, so no good with camping in the colder months.
Hence I bought a Coleman 2-burner Dual Fuel stove instead.
Also, it is not that good as a BBQ, and the grill pan is not easy to clean. When I saw the new grill pan, I groaned as it may be even more difficult to clean than the original version!
If one is getting the LP version and intend to camp during the colder months, then use propane and not butane to avoid disappointment.

Its like when you have a caravan you walk into the the accessories shop and walk out without buying anything, yea right, never happens. The cadac chef is one of the best BBQs we have had, its a bit more than a bbq, breakfast is done on it, now pizzas are done on it. Brilliant bit of kit imho. P.S. I still take a small charcoal bbq with us.

We have had one for 2 years now and love it, we use it all year round in all weathers and love it. If you pour water into the outer ring of the pan when barbiquing it is a lot easier to clean.

As previously posted - they are good little bbq but a proper pain in the arse to clean
