1. Consider your needsThe key to getting the best from your budget is to decide which features you’re prepared to pay for and which you can live without. To do this, think about what you need from your barbecue – do you cook elaborate roasts or side dishes and need a rotisserie or a side burner? Do you cook for large numbers and need multiple burners? Do you have the space for a complete outdoor kitchen or can you just about squeeze in a freestanding or tabletop model? Are you after a permanent, built-in model or would you prefer the flexibility of a portable style on castors?
