What to look for in BBQs on sale
When you're choosing a BBQ, fuel type is the first decision, because it shapes how the BBQ cooks and where you can use it. Gas BBQs give consistent heat across several burners for backyard cooking, electric models suit apartments and balconies, and pellet BBQs add a smoky flavour for slow cooking and smoking.
Once the fuel type is settled, burner count follows how many people you cook for. Two to three burners suit couples and small households, four burners handle six to eight people, and five or six burners give larger families room to entertain, with hooded models from Weber and BeefEater adding extra cooking surface.
BBQs on sale by fuel type
Fuel type shapes how the BBQ cooks, how quickly it heats up, where you can use it and the ongoing running cost, which differs because LPG bottles, mains gas and electricity are each charged differently. The main types available across BBQs on sale at The Good Guys are gas, electric and pellet.
Type | Best suited to | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
Gas BBQs | Backyard cooking with consistent heat across multiple burners | Connects to a 9kg LPG bottle or a fixed natural gas line, and most models are ready to cook in under 10 minutes with a mild flavour. |
Electric BBQs | The practical choice for apartments and balconies where gas and charcoal are restricted | Plugs into a standard 240V outlet and produces no open flame, heating up in under 10 minutes with a mild flavour. |
Pellet BBQs | Longer slow-cook sessions and smoking, combining a smoky flavour with the temperature control of gas | Uses compressed wood pellets fed automatically from a hopper into a fire pot, heating up in 10 to 15 minutes with a smoky flavour. |
LPG BBQs need a 9kg bottle, natural gas BBQs need a fixed gas line and electric BBQs need a power outlet, so check which your outdoor space supports before you compare models.
BBQ size and capacity
BBQ size is measured by burner count for gas models and by total cooking surface area in square centimetres. The right size depends on how many people you typically cook for and how much bench space is available outdoors.
Size | Suited to | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
2 to 3 burner BBQs | Couples and small households cooking for up to 4 people | Compact footprint that fits on a balcony or in a courtyard. |
4 burner BBQs | Cooking for 6 to 8 people comfortably | Typically include a side burner. |
5 to 6 burner BBQs | Larger families and entertaining for 8 to 12 people | Often include a rear infrared burner for rotisserie cooking and a side burner. Hooded 6-burner models from Weber or BeefEater add larger cooking surfaces and warming racks. |
Portable BBQs | Camping, picnics and small balconies | 1 to 2 burner compact units. |
Among portable BBQs, the Weber Q range, including the Baby Q and Family Q, and the Weber Traveler are well-known options at The Good Guys.
Total cooking area is a useful comparison point alongside burner count, as some 4-burner models offer larger surface area than others depending on the size of each individual burner.
Compare burners, grates, hood, ignition and fuel type across BBQ deals
Fuel type and these features affect cooking performance and long-term durability. Gas gives consistent heat across several burners, electric suits apartments and balconies, and pellet suits slow cooking and smoking.
Burner and grate materials decide how long a BBQ lasts and how it cooks. Stainless steel burners typically last longer than cast iron, particularly in coastal areas where salt air accelerates corrosion. Cast iron grates retain heat well and produce strong sear marks, stainless steel grates are easier to clean and resist rust, and porcelain-coated grates sit between the two.
A closed hood traps heat and turns the BBQ into a convection oven for roasting, baking and indirect cooking, so check that a built-in lid thermometer reads accurately. Piezo and battery-powered electronic ignitions tend to be more reliable than match-light models, particularly across multiple burners.
A side burner on the side bench is useful for cooking sauces, vegetables and side dishes while the main grill is in use. A motorised rotisserie attachment paired with a rear infrared burner produces evenly cooked roasts and is available on premium 5 to 6 burner models. BBQs on wheels with enclosed cabinet storage keep cooking utensils and LPG bottles out of the weather, and plastic trolleys degrade faster outdoors than powder-coated steel.
BBQ brands and ranges
Brands like Weber, BeefEater and Ninja make the BBQs in these ranges:
Brand | Range and what it suits |
|---|---|
The portable Q-series and Traveler, the Spirit series and Smoque pellet smokers | |
The 1200, 1600 and Signature ranges, Australian-designed, with 3 to 6 burner configurations across mid-range and premium price points | |
An electric-only range built around the Woodfire platform, combining mains power with real wood pellets for smoky flavour without gas or charcoal, with models from compact grills through to the Pro XL and modes including grill, smoke, air fry and roast, suited to balconies and smaller outdoor spaces |
BBQs on sale across entry-level, mid-range and premium models
Burner count, hood design and cooking features separate the tiers:
Entry-level BBQs are affordable 2 to 3 burner gas models and portable units suited to apartments, balconies and small backyards, while mid-range BBQs are 4 to 5 burner gas models with hoods, side burners and improved cooking grate materials.
Premium BBQs are 5 to 6 burner gas models with flame tamers, infrared burners, rotisseries and built-in temperature management, and the outdoor kitchen tier covers built-in modules, 6-burner Summit-class setups and dedicated outdoor entertaining configurations.
How do you buy a BBQ on sale?
Measure your outdoor space, including clearance around the BBQ for safe gas use. A minimum 1 m is recommended; however, check the manufacturer's instructions for the clearance each model requires.
Choose fuel type based on your setup, as it narrows down which BBQ suits your home: gas (LPG or natural gas) for convenience, electric for apartments and balconies, pellet for smoking and slow-cook sessions.
Match burner count to typical entertaining size: 2 to 3 burners for up to 4 people, 4 burners for 6 to 8, 5 to 6 burners for 8 to 12.
Check build materials: stainless steel burners and powder-coated steel trolleys handle Australian weather better than alternatives, and 304 stainless steel suits coastal areas.
Check availability at your nearest The Good Guys store, then book delivery or Click & Collect at checkout.
