Which grill should I choose?

The answer is:
The grill that is most practical and provides the best grilling experience according to your needs. To find out what your needs are, you need to ask yourself a few questions:

1. Where to grill?
2. How often do you plan to grill?
3. How many should you usually grill for?
4. What kind of food do you want to grill?
5. How do you like to grill?

The answers to these questions will largely make the choice of grill easier. Beyond this, it is simply about finding the grill that is most practical for your needs and that you like best. There are many types of grill to choose from and the grill options can vary. Therefore, it would be wise to choose correctly from the start.

FCC BBQ Fire 3.1 is an affordable gas grill in a rough industrial design and robust build quality. The grill has innovative solutions, high heat output, and a powerful and stable lid with a thermometer. The side tables have shelves for storing spices and cooking oils, and the grill has cabin hooks for hanging barbecue tools.

The grill grates are in matt enamelled cast iron and the grill makes it possible to use the Multi Grill System, as well as the heating grate. In other words, there are good reasons to choose Fire 3.1 gas grill.

X-Grill Chef

X-Grill Chef is solidly constructed, rises quickly in temperatures and gives you the best result on the food when it comes to heat dissipation on the grill surface. In addition, it is affordable, it is easy to control the temperature and it works well on indirect and direct heat.

X-Grill was voted best in test in TV2 Hjelper deg's big gas grill test 2020. Judge and chef and winner of Norway's grill master, Sylvia Vavik, described X-Grill Chef as the perfect family grill.

The advantages TV2 Hjelper Deg emphasized:

• Good for both direct and indirect heat, which makes it easy to grill meat and vegetables.
• Even distribution of heat, and easy to control.
• Large grill surface, despite the fact that the grill is compact.
• Easy to use, even for beginners.
• Several grill zones, which gives you versatility.
• Very competitive price.

In TEK.no's big barbecue test, it came in 2nd place. This is one of the largest barbecue tests carried out in Norway in the last 10 years. The best gas grill 2023.

TEK says, among other things: A grill we can recommend to you is this model from Flying Culinary Circus. This is a grill that is well suited for you who want a large grill surface, but at the same time don't want something too towering when it is not in use.

All in all, a very good grill, and a grill that is easy to find space for.

Volcano Smokeless Medium fire barrel

Volcano Smokeless is a clean-burning fire barrel that is designed in such a way that it gives you less smoke and more lively and clean flames, so that you can enjoy a pleasant and wonderful warmth all year round.

TEK.no has recently carried out a test of it, and not surprisingly they had a lot to boast about when they tested our already very popular fire barrel! 

There are many advantages to using clean-burning fire barrels, and TEK was excited by several things.

The advantages that TEK emphasized:

• Compact and solidly built
• Gives good heat
• Releases very little smoke
• No mounting
• Good with extras
• Gets little ash after use

It was so incredibly liberating to release lots of smoke while sitting around the fire pan.

Titan 2.0

Titan 2.0 is our top model of portable grills. It is transportable. It is easily folded to become a "flat pack" and can thus be taken in the car, for example. Or join in the backyard, in the park or be moved to where it is needed. In this sense, it is also easy to store in the shed in winter.

Titan was just tested by Dagbladet in a large gas grill test of less expensive grills. And came out in the top tier with a dice roll of 5. Here are some of the things they got excited about:

This grill is an ever-so-small Columbi egg, and particularly well-suited for those with limited space.

Of the finesse, we can list the body and lid in cast aluminium, which is usually only found on more expensive grills. Under the lid, it boasts two powerful square burners in rust-resistant steel. 

Here you get a lot of satisfaction at once

Dagbladet – April 2022

The FCC BBQ Titan 2.0 gas grill appears to be a top choice for people with less space, for example if you live in an apartment in the city.

Grilling in the park will then be perfectly fine, and you will probably get a lot of envious looks from the horde of disposable grillers.

Pizza Chef

Do you want to make real Italian pizza in less than 2 minutes? Then the Pizza Chef concept is probably something for you. Here you get a small Italian-inspired oven that reaches a crazy 500 degrees, perfect for making Neapolitan pizza.

The oven was taken out for testing by TEK.no in July 2022 and received a lot of praise, and was labeled "good buy". This is some of what TEK.no found in its test:

The Pizza Chef oven excels at all the right points, and appears to be the most affordable pizza oven you can find out there.

The advantages that TEK.no emphasized:

• Cheap
• Can get really hot, although it takes a little extra time
• Easy to use
• Easy
• Throttle on the side, instead of the back

In conclusion, they say that the oven appears to be a good "starter" oven for anyone who wants to try their hand at real pizza baking at home.

Flying Culinary Circus Pizza Chef is a very good pizza oven

Grab 'n' Grill

A compact portable hiking grill that is easy to take with you, whether you are grilling on the beach, in the woods, in the mountains or in the park. The grill heats up quickly and gives you several grilling options with both a grill grate and a baking tray.

Grab 'n' Grill has done fantastic in several tests. In Dagbladet 2022, it came out as test winner in the test of small gas grills. Aftenposten singled it out as one that sets a new standard for small outdoor grills. Here are some excerpts and links to tests:

This smart gas grill sets a new standard

Aftenposten – June 2022

Aftenposten 2022:

Forget clumsy and whimsical disposable grills that have a habit of burning marks in the grass and towering over overflowing rubbish bins. A portable multi-use grill is a more sustainable solution. It also provides better control over cooking.

The advantages that TEK.no emphasized:

• Fold-out legs for uneven surfaces
