\"\"<\/a>So you finally moved into a big enough place or far enough out of the city that you can entertain the idea of a barbecue. Congrats, however, you’ll be pleased to find that you will be paying more for fewer features.\u00a0 But of course, if you’ve made it here this long, you are used to that by now.<\/p>\n

So here’s a round up of what you have available to you when buying a BBQ in Thailand.\u00a0 This is mainly a look at gas BBQ’s as decent Thai made options for charcoal grills are sold at road sides, in Home Pro<\/strong> as well as these stores below.<\/p>\n

I have found 2 places to buy a BBQ in Bangkok:<\/p>\n

The Barbecue Store<\/a><\/strong> – Sukumvit Soi 39 (Also Pattaya, Hua Hin, Phuket) – Import BBQ’s from Australia with brands Fuego<\/strong>, Beefmaster<\/strong>, Turbo<\/strong> and Grill King<\/strong>.\u00a0 Online ordering and delivery.\u00a0 Their service is quite good and they offer good after sales service.<\/p>\n

Cheapest 3 burner: 21,900 – Grill King<\/p>\n

4 Burner Stainless: 35,600 – Beefmaster<\/p>\n

True Value<\/a><\/strong> – Sukumvit\u00a0 Soi 26 (Also Pattaya,\u00a0 – Large US hard ware chain, carries the 800 pound gorilla – Weber<\/strong> as well as a Chinese made Grill Zone<\/strong>.\u00a0 Bad news is you’ll pay more than double the price for a Weber grill bought in Thailand.<\/p>\n

Cheapest 3 Burner: 21,500 – Grill Zone<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

4 Burner Stainless: 47,500 – Grill Zone<\/p>\n

Weber Q300 – 32,00 baht.<\/p>\n

Other options:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

BBQThailand<\/a><\/strong> – Located in Phuket – with shipping within Thailand. They carry the brand Masport<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Cheapest 3 Burner: 13,900 – Masport Weekender 3<\/p>\n

4 Burner Stainless: 33,500 – Masport Entertainer Plus<\/p>\n

Quick Fire<\/a><\/strong> –\u00a0 Locally made in Udon Thani – shipping within Thailand.\u00a0 They have some great reviews, but the prices are a bit high.\u00a0 They do custom work as well.\u00a0 They have a fourm thread where people can hear from they main guy, “Doc”.\u00a0 Just don’t ask any tough questions.<\/p>\n

Cheapest 3 Burner: 29,000<\/p>\n

4 Burner Stainless: NA\"webber<\/a><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/em><\/strong>:\u00a0 For the small size of my family and the size of my space, I think the Weber Q is the perfect choice.\u00a0 Looks great, portable and is a quality brand.\u00a0 But as they can be had on EBAY for about 15,000 Baht shipped to your door, I don’t think I am going to be able to bring myself to pay 32k for one here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
