All the brands we stock at Keen Gardener have been handpicked to ensure that they meet our exacting standards, and to ensure that we can offer models designed to suit a wide range of customer budgets and requirements.
Cadac
South African ˜Braai specialists Cadac have built a reputation for providing quality gas and charcoal barbecues at a competitive price point, and you can expect sturdy, stylish units with reliable cooking performance.
Although more renowned for their portable Outdoor range, the Cadac Patio range features some excellent charcoal and gas barbecues that will provide you with flexible, high quality cooking performance. The centrepiece of the range is the Braai Max, a premium outdoor cooking station that transcends traditional barbecuing.
This flexible unit opens up a whole new world of outdoor cooking thanks to its two independent cooking areas and interchangeable surfaces, so you can cook everything from stir fries and paella to pizzas!
Jamie Oliver
Celebrity endorsed products can be a bit hit and miss, but weve got no problem in recommending the hard-wearing, professionally finished gas and charcoal barbecues in the Jamie Oliver range.
With enough substance to back up the celebrity styling, you can expect distinctive designs, quality construction and a good range of models designed that cater for occasional grillers, right up to real al fresco cooking enthusiasts.
As an added bonus, all models in the Jamie Oliver range come supplied with a comprehensive 10-year warranty for added security and peace of mind.
Ultra Chef
A sub brand of Napoleon, the Ultra Chef range provides a great entry level into the world of gas barbecuing. Whilst Ultra Chef models lack some of the premium features, bells and whistles found on barbecues in the main Napoleon range, they are still streets ahead of the cheap gas barbecues youll find in your local supermarket.
The perfect choice for the price conscious consumer that still wants a quality product, Ultra Chef barbecues are great value for money, and deliver good quality cooking performance.
Lifestyle
Lifestyle is a unique brand that covers both extremes of the gas barbecue market.
At one end of the spectrum, the entry level Ebony range is dependable, affordable and functional, and at the other, the Connoisseur Pro models provide commercial grade, top quality performance, excellent build quality and extensive features, at a premium price tag.
In addition to the gas barbecues, Lifestyle also offers a range of affordable kettle, barrel and trolley charcoal barbecues that deliver excellent cooking performance and great value for money, making them perfect for the price conscious barbecuer.
Kamado Joe
Kamado Joe sits firmly at the premium end of the charcoal bbq market, with their adaptable, Japanese oven inspired ceramic grills. Whilst Kamado Joe models come with a premium price tag, you can see the quality of the construction and attention to detail on all their models, and they provide peerless charcoal cooking performance.
Aspirational, attractive and versatile, there is nothing out there that compares to a Kamado Joe, and they are proving more and more popular with outdoor cooking enthusiasts and BBQ aficionados alike.
Dancook
Simple, functional Scandinavian design and competitive prices are the hallmarks of the Dancook range of charcoal barbecues.
Now a part of Char Broil, they provide excellent value for money and high quality cooking performance, making them a good choice for barbecue traditionalists who dont want to spend a fortune.
