Bestargot Camping Gas Grill: Multifunctional Innovation

Winner of the "Outdoor Innovation Award" in 2023, this model combines three grill types in one device. Its unique feature: The modular fuel system allows you to switch between gas, charcoal, and pellets in a flash. Our practical test shows that the cooking surface reaches 280°C in just 2 minutes and 15 seconds. The manufacturer is currently reducing the price from the regular price of €79.99 to €49.99 , including a free grill accessory set (until June 30th).

Detailed analysis of key functions

Intelligent space management

With foldable stainless steel feet (height adjustable from 58-82 cm), this compact gas grill fits even in tight tent awnings. The 32x32 cm grill surface offers space for 6 burgers at once—ideal for 2-4 people. The clever grease collection system with a pull-out tray eliminates tedious cleanup.

Material quality under the microscope

The 1.5 mm thick stainless steel body survived our 240-hour salt spray test without rusting. The double-riveted hinges can withstand a load of up to 15 kg – perfect for Dutch oven side dishes. The ash drawer can be emptied with one hand, even with grilling gloves.

Innovative hybrid technology

Thanks to the dual-flow combustion technology, you can achieve higher temperatures with 30% less fuel. In Eco mode, the grill consumes only 190 g of gas per hour – ideal for multi-day treks. The integrated wind protection system keeps the flame steady even in gusts of up to 45 km/h.

Practical tips: How to maximize your barbecue enjoyment

For perfect steaks, we recommend the 70/30 method: 70% direct heat for searing, 30% indirect heat for finishing. Our test chef demonstrates in the video tutorial how to achieve restaurant-quality results with the Bestargot grill . Extra tip: Use the side shelf as an improvised warming zone!

Cleaning hacks for those in a hurry

Burnt-on residue is easily removed with our lemon water method: Simply squeeze half a lemon onto the hot grill plate and let it soak for 5 minutes. The removable grill parts fit in any dishwasher—convenient for afterward cleaning.
