Say goodbye to summer with these five grills—each designed to bring out your inner BBQ pro.
With the end of summer upon us, now’s the time to fire-up your grills and use the bounty of farm-fresh ingredients available throughout Western Canada. If you’ve spent the summer sans barbecue, then here are five fabulous grills to help you say goodbye to the sunny months in style.
No fire ban? Then a portable gas grill like the Weber Traveler ($499) might just be an ideal addition to your end-of-summer camping kit. canadiantire.ca
The Traeger Grills Ironwood 650 ($1,500) is so high-tech that you can tell it what to do via your Alexa. No Alexa? You can command the barbecue to do everything from igniting apple pellets to lightening the quality of smoke produced from the grill by smartphone or a remote. Easy as (a very smokey) pie. homedepot.ca
Indoor grilling isn’t possible when your barbecue rolls smoke—but an electric grill like the Weber Q 1400 (starting at $440) makes it so that you can keep making your favourite summer recipes all year long. Plus it’s heat retention technology helps save you money on your electricity bill. Win-Win. canadiantire.ca
Can’t decide if you’re a charcoal maven or a natural-gas fan? The Char-Broil Gas2coal ($548) lets you have the best of both worlds—and comes with fixed side shelves for prepping ingredients which means multitasking doesn’t have to feel so fruitless. walmart.ca
The Kamado Joe Classic Joe II ($1,700) comes with a two-tier cooking system so you can perfect different foods simultaneously—plus the wheeled legs means you can bring this charcoal grill anywhere. barbecuesgalore.ca
