Outdoor kitchens with gas barbecue
Your summer kitchen with a gas barbecue will offer you absolute comfort so you can enjoy instant cooking heat to not wait for that delicious meat. In addition to this, you won’t have to worry about buying charcoal bags or cleaning up the ashes afterwards.
Gas barbecues are one of the most common barbecues on the market, mainly because they cook so quickly and it is clean and simple. However, there are many different types of gas barbecue on the market, and we’ve outlined the differences between them below:
The Best Gas Barbecues
The best gas barbecues are made from AISI 304 stainless steel or AISI 316 marine steel. Low quality gas barbecues are made of painted iron, but these are used barbecues, as they are a consumer product that will be replaced after a while.
Top-of-the-range gas barbecues, such as those from Fesfoc, have stainless steel grills and burners, which are perfectly weatherproof. On the other hand, low-range gas barbecues have painted iron grates and burners, but often, after the first use, the paint is damaged and the iron starts to rust. Rust is a loss of material cross-section that eventually disintegrates completely.
High-end Gas Barbecues
High-quality gas barbecues are not fitted with rod grates. The problem with rod grates is that all the grease and liquids from your food fall into the burners, clogging them up and making them tedious to clean and significantly reducing their durability.
Top-of-the-range gas barbecues are equipped with Teppanyaki grills and planchas. These are corrugated grids and planchas designed to channel the grease into a gutter where it is collected. This prevents grease from falling into the burner area, minimizing cleaning while extending the durability of your barbecue and making your experience infinitely better.
What is the difference between cheap and expensive BBQ grills?
High End BBQ VS
Low End BBQ
Top-of-the-range gas barbecues have blue flame. The blue flame means that the fuel has burned completely, leaving no gas residue on the food. Many low-end gas barbecues have an orange flame when lit. We don’t recommend them, as the orange flame means that the gas has not burned completely and can leave gas residues in the food.
Remember that all gas barbecues must be installed by a specialist in accordance with the rules and regulations in force in each region to make sure safety procedures are followed.
Professional Stainless Steel Gas Barbecues
If you’re looking for a high-quality gas barbecue, Fesfoc offers a wide range of models that will exceed all your outdoor cooking expectations.
Our professional AISI 316 stainless-steel gas barbecues feature high-performance burners, stainless-steel cooking grates and planchas, and a centralized grease collection system that prevents grease from falling into the combustion system.
They also feature the most spectacular design to take your garden or terrace décor to the next level.
Outdoor Kitchens with Coal Barbecue
Your outdoor kitchen with a charcoal barbecue will give your food authentic flavor and a unique gastronomic experience. You’ll be able to treat your family and friends to delicious open air meals.
There are many different types of charcoal barbecue on the market. Most of them are low-end. This is a consumer product that has to be replaced time and again because of its poor quality materials and precarious construction.

High-end Charcoal Barbecues
Top-of-the-range charcoal barbecues are made of AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless steel. Low-end charcoal barbecues are made of painted or vitrified iron. The problem with painted or vitrified iron barbecues is that, sooner or later, the paint will flake off and the rusted area will begin a degradation process that will accelerate over time, prompting you to buy another barbecue.
Top-of-the-range charcoal barbecues have cast-iron or stainless steel grates. Lower-end charcoal barbecues have chromed iron grates. After the first use, the chromium evaporates and the exposed iron begins to rust.
Top-of-the-range charcoal barbecues are equipped with a high-performance stainless steel combustion system, while bottom-of-the-range barbecues have a painted or glazed iron combustion system, which eventually rusts and deteriorates.
Also keep in mind that low quality charcoal barbecues do not have a good oxygen intake system; therefore, its performance is way lower than high quality charcoal barbecues such as the Fesfoc third generation system.

If you’re looking for excellence in taste, embers aroma and chef experience, Fesfoc charcoal barbecues are the way to go. Without doubt, one of the most advanced in the world. We’ll tell you why, and you’ll understand the huge difference compared to other charcoal barbecues on the market.
Our Volcano charcoal barbecues feature a high-performance, third-generation combustion system, made entirely of the highest quality stainless steel.
Professional Charcoal Barbecues
You can choose from 3 different types of grill to maximize your culinary experience. Fesfoc grills have a large, specific cooking surface. Over two years of research have gone into designing grills that really enhance the flavor of your food.
To do this, the outer layer of the food is burnt, and the fats and liquids in the food are cooked inside. The flavor is then enhanced, making fish and meat tender and juicy, making them a real delight.
Luxury Coal BBQ VS
Cheap Coal BBQ
All this is very difficult to achieve with simple rod grills. In a rod barbecue, it’s the fire or embers that cook, not the grill itself, and in this case, the meat and fish lose their liquids and end up dry, rather than tender and juicy.
This is precisely one of the elements that differentiate a high-end charcoal barbecue from a low-end one. Low-end charcoal barbecues have rod grills because they are much cheaper to manufacture, but they don’t offer the same cooking quality.

The Best Luxury Charcoal Barbecue
Cooking with our Fesfoc Volcano grills is literally nothing like a simple rod barbecue. With a Fesfoc grills, you can cook for 3 to 5 hours on a single load of charcoal. To give you an idea, with a conventional wood-fired barbecue, it will take you around 50 minutes to get charcoal embers. Once you’ve got the embers, you can cook for around 30 minutes. That’s why Fesfoc barbecues are so powerful.
Fesfoc’s high-powered barbecues feature the Safety Touch system. Its combustion system is designed to dissipate the temperature from the front of your barbecue incredibly well, making it very safe if you have children or pets.

Stone Outdoor Kitchens
If you’re looking for an economical outdoor kitchen for wood-fired cooking, a stone outdoor kitchen may be an option.
In fact, these types of barbecues have been on the market for a long time, but given the evolution of technology and the introduction of new materials in the world of summer cooking, they are less and less used for many reasons, among which we find :
Don't Buy a Stone Outdoor Kitchen!
1. They’re heavy and can’t be set up everywhere; for example, it’s not advisable to install them on building terraces because it may cause a collapse in the foundation structures of the building.
2. You’ll need unloading and transport equipment such as a crane truck, because of their heavy weight.
3. They can easily be broken by thermal differences when lighting the fire.
4. They get very dirty and are very difficult to clean, as the material is very porous.

4. They get very dirty and are very difficult to clean, as the material is very porous.
More disadvantages than advantages
5. Their design is often far from contemporary. Today, the trend is towards minimalism. Top-of-the-range outdoor kitchens try to imitate the design of an indoor kitchen with straight, pure shapes.
6. If you decide to change your outdoor kitchen or if you move out to a bigger house and want to bring the outdoor kitchen with you, it may be difficult to move such a heavy load, and you’ll incur additional personnel and transport costs.
Their chimneys don't work
7. The fireplaces usually fitted to stone barbecues are merely a decorative feature. They don’t work. For a non-motorized outdoor fireplace to work, the extraction pipe must be at least 3 m high, as it operates by pressure difference.
This is known as the Venturi effect. If you don’t have a minimum draught of 3m, it won’t absorb the air generated in the cooking zone, and is therefore no more than a decorative object.
Outdoor Kitchens with Fridge
Adding a refrigerator to your outdoor kitchen will allow you to have all the cold drinks you want directly at your disposal. You’ll save time, with no need to go back and forth to your indoor kitchen. Choose our top-of-the-range Fesfoc outdoor kitchens with high-performance refrigerators!
Outdoor Refrigerators
There are many types and sizes of outdoor refrigerators. We don’t recommend installing your indoor fridge outdoors, as it will automatically lose its warranty.
Outdoor fridges are specially designed to withstand even the most extreme weather conditions. What’s more, the connections, wiring and electronics are designed to withstand humidity, rain, cold and heat.
This is not the case with an indoor appliance. Outdoor refrigerators come in a range of sizes, with the most common measuring 60 or 90 cm in length.
