Smaller, but Superior
I had a Beefeater 6 burner for close to 15 years and absolutely loved her, but the miles on the clock meant it was time to seek a new BBQ. The Beefeater 1200 4 burner might be smaller, but the individual grill plates are larger, so I'm really not losing that much cooking area. This is a very efficient beast and not overly difficult to put together, although the instructions for the gas connection section could be a bit clearer.

Beefeater 4 burner bbq
We owned a BeefEater bbq for almost 20 years and worked like a dream. We upgraded our outdoor area and thought it was time for a replacement. After reviewing all our options and viewing the latest range available we decided to purchase the new 4 burner with extra vegetable burner on he side with a trolley. Worked out perfect and very happy with the purchase and support provided by the Good Guys team.

Great everyday BBQ
We liked the size, the colour (black does not show marks as much as stainless steel finish), the lid was not too heavy and the cupboard is enclosed so that contents don't get dusty and is not a hiding place for snakes. A lot of other bbqs are fully open at the back.

Great, reliable BBQ - easy to set up and use
It was straight forward to build and use, good dispersion of heat, and side burner comes in handy.

Great style
The bbq has many features that are easy to access and easy to use. The metal rack inside is very handy for multiple uses. So far it is easy to clean 😊

At a glance
The BeefEater 1200 Series 4 Burner BBQ is a freestanding gas BBQ built for family meals and casual backyard entertaining. Its strengths are even heat from cast iron cooking surfaces, a useful side wok burner, and an easy-to-move trolley design. A fair limitation is that it is better suited to everyday home use than larger premium BBQ setups for frequent big-group hosting.

- Family BBQs
- Backyard Entertaining
- Weeknight Grilling

- Side Burner Cooking
Where it works best
- Patio
- Backyard

Who it’s for

- Home Cook Wanting Freestanding Flexibility
Things to consider
This model offers strong everyday versatility, but shoppers wanting a larger cooking surface, heavier-duty build or more advanced premium features may prefer a higher-end multi-burner BBQ.
Entertaining suitability
Well suited to family meals and small backyard gatherings
Family size fit
Ideal for small to medium family households
Outdoor space compatibility
Best for patios, courtyards and backyards with room for a full-size freestanding BBQ
Ease of cleaning score
7/10 - drip tray helps manage grease, but cast iron cooking surfaces still need regular care and cleaning.
Portability rating
7/10 - lockable castor wheels make repositioning practical, though it is still a full-size freestanding unit.
Key benefits
- Four cast iron burners: gives you enough cooking capacity to prepare multiple foods at once for family meals and small gatherings.
- Side wok burner: adds flexibility for stir fries, sauces or side dishes without taking up main grill space.
- Roasting hood with temperature gauge: helps maintain steady lid-down cooking conditions when roasting thicker cuts.
- Viewing window: lets you check progress without lifting the hood and dropping heat.
- Flame tamer system: spreads heat more evenly across the grill and plate for more consistent cooking results.
- Cabinet trolley design: gives you freestanding placement flexibility for patios and outdoor spaces.
- Lockable castor wheels: makes it easier to move the BBQ into position and secure it when in use.
- Bottom drip tray: helps channel excess oil away from the cooking area for simpler cleanup after grilling.
Q: Is this BBQ big enough for family meals and casual entertaining
A: Yes. BeefEater 1200 Series 4 Burner BBQ has four main burners and a full-size freestanding layout that suits family meals and small gatherings. It is better matched to home entertaining than very large parties or commercial-style cooking.
Q: Can the side burner replace one of the main cooking zones
A: No. The side burner is a separate wok-style burner for pans, stir fries or sauces, while the main burners handle barbecue cooking on the grill and plate. It adds flexibility, but it does not create extra main grilling area.
Q: Does the viewing window help when cooking with the hood closed
A: Yes. The viewing window lets you check browning and cooking progress without lifting the hood, which helps keep heat more stable for thicker cuts. It is useful for monitoring, but it does not replace checking food temperature before serving.
Q: Will the trolley suit a built-in outdoor kitchen installation
A: No. BMG1241BB is a freestanding BBQ on a cabinet trolley with lockable castor wheels, so it is designed to sit on its own rather than fit into cabinetry. It suits patios and courtyards where flexible placement matters.
Q: Does the cabinet trolley give enclosed storage underneath the BBQ
A: Yes. The cabinet trolley encloses the space underneath, which helps keep barbecue items tucked away and less exposed in outdoor areas. It is still outdoor storage, so anything moisture-sensitive is better kept elsewhere.
Q: Is the hood designed for roasting as well as everyday grilling
A: Yes. The roasting hood and integrated temperature gauge make this BBQ better suited to closed-lid cooking for thicker cuts and roast-style meals. It is versatile for home use, but it is not a dedicated smoker or slow-cook oven.
