WhichBBQ verdict

Should you buy it?

The Cuisinart Venture is a genuinely portable gas BBQ rather than simply a small garden grill with wheels. Its Stack 'n Go design packs the cooking unit neatly for transport, while the wooden lid doubles as a chopping board or serving tray. A 993cm² porcelain-enamelled cast-iron cooking surface and 2.6kW stainless-steel burner give it credible searing performance despite the compact format, and twist-start ignition makes it particularly straightforward to use away from home.
