The perfect barbecue sundowner for the balcony

The perfect barbecue sundowner for the balcony Small space, lots of enjoyment In urban areas, the balcony is what the garden is for homeowners: a personal oasis of well-being, a place to comfortably end the evening. Enjoying the summer breeze with a glass of wine, as a couple or with friends and family, is simply priceless. Barbecues are also a social and enjoyable experience. With low-smoke gas grills, this is easily possible even on a balcony or terrace in the city. We've put together a guide for you on how to create your very own sundowner! First, make yourself comfortable How you design your balcony or terrace is, of course, a matter of taste. Furniture is now available in all shapes, sizes, styles, and colors. Tip: If you're short on space, you can create a cozy corner with corner benches, and you'll still have plenty of storage space underneath. Folding furniture combinations are particularly suitable for narrow balconies. Stackable stools are also ideal for quickly creating seating for friends. Textiles are also important for adding extra coziness. When choosing colors, always consider the outdoor area as an extension of the rest of the living space – this creates a harmonious overall look. From simple tone-on-tone colors to bright color accents and contrasts, anything goes. Important: Seat cushions, pillows, throws, and outdoor rugs should always be considered together, and the rule often applies: less is more. Especially in cities where people live in tight spaces, privacy protection is also convenient. This could be a parasol or a retractable sunshade that can be easily attached to the wall. Micro garden for the soul Planting on a balcony or terrace is possible even if space is limited. Flower boxes, hanging baskets, or pots that can be easily placed on the railing thanks to a cutout are now available in a wide variety of colors. When selecting plants, it's important to pay particular attention to their sun exposure. Tip: If you don't have a green thumb, simply place a few potted herbs. These are quite undemanding, exude a wonderful fragrance, and add the finishing touch to summer dishes. Magical ambience through light Outdoor lighting contributes significantly to the atmosphere. Especially on balmy summer evenings, fairy lights, dimmable outdoor lamps, candles, or LED or solar lights make the outdoor area truly cozy. Practical in small spaces: solar- or battery-powered lights that can be flexibly positioned without annoying cable clutter. Lanterns for standing or hanging, or simply large pillar candles for the floor, also create a cozy atmosphere. Plus: Candles are also available with a pleasant scent that also keeps insects away. Culinary delights Preparing food outdoors is a truly unique way of life. Gas grills are particularly suitable in densely populated areas because they produce little smoke and are highly portable. Modern gas table grills, such as the rectangular Attitude Table Grill or the round 360 Grill CV, are ideal for particularly small outdoor spaces. Cordless, this type of grill fits on any table and makes grilling a truly special experience. Whether it's meat, fish, or vegetables, you can unleash your creativity without enveloping your neighbors in a cloud of smoke. And with round table grills, everyone can prepare their own food – for even more conviviality. Add a cool drink or a refreshing cocktail, and you'll be able to enjoy the sunset! Whether it's a balcony, terrace, or garden—we always have the right grill for you in our online shop. Browse now!

Eugen's grill tip: Make it extra large

Eugen's grill tip: Make it extra large Want something a little more? Large grills not only offer added convenience, but also plenty of space for specialty foods. Eugen's pro tip: Juicy steaks are especially delicious on the Searing Boost Station of the Master Series gas grill line. The additional burner heats up the food to a great extent. The enameled cast-iron grill grate makes it incredibly easy to create classic grill marks without running the risk of overcooking the steak. For a festive meal with family or friends, the Sunday roast is making a comeback. But not boringly baked in the oven, but deliciously crispy as a rolled roast from the grill. Eugen's tip: To ensure the roast cooks evenly all over, use our rotisserie set from the Culinary Modular System. Or how about a delicious roast chicken? The easiest way is with our Culinary Modular Chicken Roaster. Tip from Eugen: The cylinder inside can be filled with beer, wine, broth, or oil blends to your liking. Brush the outside of the chicken with oil. This ensures that the roasted poultry will be wonderfully juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Bon appetit!

The right grill for your motorhome

The best grills for motorhomes Grilling is a must on any camping holiday. The selection of grills is vast, which raises the question of which one is actually the right one. We'll show you what to look for and how to find the right grill for you. Does this still fit? One of the biggest challenges for caravan and camper fans is space. Mobile homes combine many functions in a very small space, so storage space is often at a premium. When choosing your grill, this means less is more. So, pay close attention to the size of your vehicle and the available storage space (i.e., motorhome, caravan, or car). Ideally, the grill should have a secure place on the floor, for example, under the seat. If in doubt, measure the available storage space. Gas table grills or mobile party grills are particularly practical here – the latter fit in any trunk. Compact grills are not only small and handy, but also easy to carry thanks to their low weight. Plus: small gas cartridges, such as the CV470 Plus, are much easier to store than large bags of coal. Number of people Speaking of space: Of course, there should also be enough room on the grill for the food. For 2-3 people, a party grill with a diameter of 30-40 cm is easily sufficient. For four to six people, you'll want a larger grill surface, such as our Attitude 2go CV, which measures 48 x 26 cm. Table or stand grill When choosing a grill, you should also consider whether you can grill at a comfortable working height. If you have a separate or larger table, you can simply place the tabletop grill on it and start grilling. If you're more of a picnic blanket type, we recommend a grill with legs. Are you still assembling or are you already grilling? Another important aspect is assembly: Nothing is more annoying than having to spend hours assembling a grill at a beautiful barbecue spot. Pre-assembled grills are ready to use right away. With plug-in versions, you should make sure that the individual parts can be assembled and disassembled quickly and easily without tools. Connecting components like the gas cylinder should also be straightforward. You should also keep in mind that the grill, and especially the contact surfaces like the grate and the plate, are easy to clean. Practical accessories make cleaning a breeze, such as the Campingaz cleaning brush. Multi-talented or icon Before you buy a grill, you should, of course, consider what you want to use it for. If you're a purist who values ​​high comfort and high performance, you should opt for a tabletop grill. If you also want to use the grill as a camping stove, for example, multifunctional devices like those in our Party Grill line are just right for you. Careful, it's hot! What applies at home is even more important on the road: safety. This includes safely storing the grill during trips. But caution is also required on site: Especially in nature, grilling with charcoal is prohibited in many places due to the increased risk of fire. A gas grill, on the other hand, can be used anywhere, produces no flying sparks, and hardly any smoke. Furthermore, there's no ash residue to dispose of, which also needs to cool down first. When purchasing gas grills, it's best to choose appliances with a high safety standard that meet DIN-DVGW specifications and are manufactured for the German market, such as all our gas grills. This way, you can start grilling in complete peace of mind. Conclusion: Determine your individual needs and requirements.

The perfect barbecue party setup

Everything for your perfect barbecue party Laugh, dance – and eat together! What would a real summer party be without delicious grilled food? Add a cold drink and some music, and you're ready to go. Whether spontaneously on the go or at home – Campingaz shows you the must-haves for your perfect barbecue party. The heart of every party – the grill Barbecues are social and incredibly delicious! The food is easy to prepare, ensuring a relaxing evening for both the hosts and the guests. But not all barbecues are created equal. When choosing a barbecue, there are a few things to consider: 1. Size If you want to sizzle with a small group, compact grills like our Campingaz Party Grill are ideal. For 3-4 people, a medium-sized grill, like the Campingaz Attitude 2go CV , is best. If you're expecting more guests, you'll be well-equipped with a professional-grade unit like our 4 & 3 Master Series . With two additional warming racks, even a large BBQ becomes a breeze, eliminating the need to wait long for delicious grilled specialties. 2. Mobility For a barbecue party by the lake or on the go, you should also consider the journey to and from the location. A game of Tetris for space in the trunk or a long walk with heavy luggage will otherwise spoil the mood. When choosing a grill, also make sure that the individual parts are easy to assemble and, ideally, compact for transport. With our Party Grill, for example, all the components can be easily stowed inside the grill, making transport and storage particularly easy. Gas grills are the best choice for on-the-go heating: Completely independent, available with handy gas cartridges, and without the hassle of lighting the grill or disposing of hot ash, you can get started right away with gas-powered devices. 3. Features Size isn't everything – even with grills. Our small party grills, for example, offer versatile uses thanks to their reversible grill plate and the ability to convert them to a gas stove. Particularly juicy steaks with great grill marks turn out best on our Master Series Searing Boost Station . Tip: The Culinary Modular System is available for many Campingaz grills. This also makes it ideal for preparing roast chicken and other dishes, ensuring perfect results. Culinary Sausages are certainly a classic at any barbecue. But shrimp, steaks, meatballs, and fish also perform well on the grill. Always consider a vegetarian or vegan alternative. Feta or vegetable skewers, for example, are particularly good. You can simply serve them with baguette, salads, and various sauces or dips (you'll find three classics below in Eugen's barbecue tip). A bowl or one of our practical coolers with ice or ice packs and a selection of drinks of your choice completes the culinary selection. Location Finding a suitable location for a barbecue is very important. Not everyone has the opportunity to grill at home on their balcony, patio, or in their garden. Tip: It's best to look for a location with a designated barbecue area that can be reserved in advance. This way, you can be sure that barbecuing is permitted and that you have the space to yourself. And if you let your neighbors know in advance, or even invite them along, you can expect more understanding, even if things get a bit loud. Decoration There are no limits to your imagination, and tastes naturally vary. Basically, you should make sure your party has enough standing and seating space (e.g., with comfortable cushions or blankets). Later in the evening, fairy lights and candles create a cozy atmosphere. LEDs are not only particularly energy-efficient, but can often be powered by rechargeable batteries or batteries if no power connection is available. A campfire is certainly a special highlight – for those on the go or where this isn't possible, so-called Swedish fires are a great alternative.
