The Grillers Guide to Barrelq BBQ

I think one of the most versatile styles of BBQ that you can find on the market is the barrel style. There are both side barrel and stand-up barrel BBQs out there being produced by loads of manufacturers. One of the more interesting barrel models is the Barrelq BBQ. This stand-up barbecue is one of the most useful BBQ models being sold today. Let me show you a closer look at the joys of grilling with a Barrelq BBQ model.

Grilling Perfection

Grilling with a Barrelq BBQ is a delight. It is really easy to get the coals going with this style of barbecue. It has a huge surface area so that I can cook large amounts of food for my friends and family at the tailgate.

Speaking of tailgating, one of the best things about these standup barrel barbecue models is the fact that they have such a small footprint. This is perfect when I find myself tailgating in areas where it seems like the owners are always trying to squeeze a few more trucks in with every game.

Smoking Champ

Another thing I love about the Barrelq BBQ is that it is a great tool for smoking meat as well as grilling. I love to get a 48-hour smoke going with some pork loin or brisket in the Barrelq. Anytime I can get a barbecue that does double-duty like this, I am more than happy to give it a whirl.

When I take my grills out on the road, they are in for some hard use. Whether I am feeding a frenzied crowd at a tailgate or posting up at the sandbank, my barbecues will go through some bumps and bruises. I need a sturdy barbecue that can absorb the kind of punishment my active lifestyle dishes out. The Barrelq BBQ has come through loads of adventures looking not much worse for the wear.

Multiple Uses

One of the best features of the Barrelq barbecue is its versatility. This is not just a barbecue. You can also smoke with it. I love to use it as a campfire for those cold fall morning tailgates. It can be loaded up with ice to make an improvised beer cooler. You can also put the lid on the barrel to turn it into a handy end table when you are done grilling.

I am one of those guys who doesn’t pay a ton of attention to style, but there are certain things that seem stylish to me. This barbecue is one of them. I like the industrial vibe of the Barrelq BBQ. It really stands out wherever I take it. It looks great in the backyard, at my tailgate or at the beach. I can throw it in my truck and take it anywhere I want to show off my grilling chops.

Easy to Store

Again, the vertical design of this barrel-style BBQ is really nice. I love how little space this grill takes up on my patio or garage. It also comes with a sturdy cover to protect it from the elements.

The Barrelq BBQ I got from BBQ World is a wonderful part of my grilling collection. It is not the only barbecue that you will ever need, but it is one of the most versatile I have ever owned. Combined with its convenience, it makes for a winning package.
