Barbeques have become synonymous with Australian culture and way of life. Many people enjoy nothing more than having an outdoor barbeque on the weekend with family and friends. There are so many different styles and versions of barbeques on the market people are spoilt for choice. There is the electric barbeque, the gas barbeque and of course the charcoal barbeque. Put on top of the barbeque the long list of barbeque equipment and accessories now available, some tong sets can cost over $400.
There are many different types of barbeques on the market today so you really need to know what type of barbeque will suit your needs. This can come down to what type of barbeque your after, how large you need your barbeque to be, and how much money your willing to spend as barbeques in general can range from $500 to $2000+. Gas barbeques are the most common barbie you will find in most Australian households because of their convenience and you still get that glorious barbeque flavour. Charcoal barbeque's are without doubt the best tasting barbeque's because you get the authentic smokey flavour with your food, the charcoal barbeque is generally more work to prepare and to maintain but for the barbeque enthusiasts out there it's well worth it. The electric barbeque is simple to use and very cost efficient and you don't have to worry about running out of coals or gas but the taste of the meat isn't as good as the others.

With so many barbeque's on the market today there is a huge amount of barbeque equipment on offer. This includes a long list of the latest tools to have you looking the part, barbeque equipment and accessories include tongs, forks, wire brush, gas bottles, bibs or aprons and outdoor entertainment furniture. There is literally hundreds of different barbeque accessories out there that you could spend thousands on, I would recommend you start with the necessities first such as your actual cooking equipment and go from there. Some of the more practical must have barbeque equipment whcih you will find extremely handy is a gas gauge, this shows you how much is left in the bottle, this can save you from running out of gas in the middle of cooking the barbeque and save you a quick trip up to the local petrol station to refill.
Gone are the days where a barbeque was just your typical chops and sausages, these days there are many different barbeque recipes where people now cook chicken, fish, duck and kangaroo. There are literally thousands of different recipes on the market and most barbeque's which you buy will come not only with a how to use booklet but also a few recipe's attached to it also. Many people now marinate their meat and use marinade's, rub's and sauces to add to the flavour of the meat. When marinating your meat it's important to do it well before you intend to cook so that the flavours of the marinade have time to infuse into the meat. You can now prepare all types of dishes on the barbeque, it depends on the barbeque and how much equipment your willing to buy, many gas barbeque's come with a side burner where you can put a pan and prepare your side dishes.
There are many positives about using a barbeque such as cooking outside on a hot summers evening rather than over a hot stove. And as mentioned the taste of the meat cooked on a barbeque generally taste's a lot better than doing it inside on a frying pan. There are some things you need to keep in mind if you own a gas barbeque such as cleaning it on a regular basis. This is important as fat can build up in the tray at the bottom, this happens regularly and if you don't clean it you will find that the flames will get so hi that they will burn the meat and even yourself if your not careful. That's why it's important to change the tray at the bottom regularly, using a wire brush to brush the grill clean and using soap and water to clean the beads under the grill every now and again.
When you are looking for a barbeque it's important to work out a few things before you make a purchase. This includes working out the size you want, exactly what barbeque equipment you will need and what accessories you want to purchase and of course how much your willing to spend. As mentioned before you could literally spend thousands of dollars on barbeques and barbeque equipment so work out exactly what you need not just what looks good. All the bells and whistles are nice to have but the only barbeque equipment you really need to get the party started is the barbie, a set of tongs and a gass bottle all the added extras you can buy as you go.
