THRILLING GRILLING
Living in southern Europe allows for al fresco dining – and that usually entails a barbecue! There are some interesting new ideas for grilling that are not only fun and easy to use but also visually attractive and highly durable, meaning they are more weather resistant and therefore also great investments. Opposite Page Above The Big Green Egg has a stainless-steel cooking grid and external temperature gauge, while its “eggcessories” include a nest, table, charcoal and convector. Company engineers incorporated new types of ceramics, based on materials initially developed by NASA, making it highly durable, and the signature green colour will not fade in the sun due to its hard-coat porcelain glaze. It offers superlative heat insulation and its state-of-the-art ceramics, patented draft door and vent cap all allow for a wide range of cooking temperatures from a searingly high heat to low-andslow smoking. The Big Green Egg is available from Outdoor Concepts at the top of the Boulevard in San Pedro de Alcántara (www.outdoorconcepts.es). Below The Viking Professional 5 Series free-standing grill offers premium cooking for al fresco dining. It comes with a cast brass burner and one ProSear 2™ burner, a dual-position rotisserie with heavy-duty, 3-speed
motor and rear infrared burner, a hot surface ignition system, a premium smoker box, stainless steel grilling grates and a grill cart – plus much more. Available from Mercasur in Pol. Ind. Estepona (www.mercasurestepona.com) and Decodan Interiores in Avda. Juan Carlos I in Estepona (www.decodaninteriores.com). This Page The innovative OFYR offers an exceptional al fresco cooking experience that invites people to come together and enjoy grilling in a social dynamic. The cylindrical design allows for this barbecue to also serve as a firepit, giving the OFYR two functional uses. The wide rim around its circumference is ideal for cooking food on a lower heat whilst the central grill over the flames is better for cooking at a very high temperature. Underneath, there is a space to store logs for easy access. Available from Acoola in Pol. Ind. San Pedro de Alcántara (www.acoola.eu).
