A compact charcoal barbecue with a QuickStart system - lit faster, that lovely charcoal flavour, without taking much space.

The Loewy 40 is a round charcoal barbecue (Ø40 cm) from the well-known Barbecook, with their QuickStart system that lights the coals faster and with less fuss. Compact enough for a balcony or small terrace, but big enough to grill for 2-4 people. For anyone who wants real charcoal flavour without a bulky BBQ, a lovely gift around 85 euro.
Reasons to buy
- QuickStart system: coals lit faster, less fuss
- Real charcoal flavour in a handy, round model
- Ø40 cm grill surface: enough for 2-4 people
- Compact - fits a balcony or small terrace
Watch-outs
- Charcoal: lighting takes time (even with QuickStart) and there's cleaning afterwards
- 40 cm is fine for a small party; for big groups look bigger
- Seasonal item - mainly for the terrace/summer season
Why charcoal (and QuickStart)
Charcoal gives that distinctive smoky flavour gas can't quite match. The hurdle is usually lighting; Barbecook's QuickStart system helps get the coals up to temperature faster and more evenly, so you can grill sooner and fan less. For the lover of real BBQ flavour, that's worth it.
Size and use
With a Ø40 cm grill surface you comfortably cook for 2-4 people - enough for a family or small party. The round, compact shape fits a balcony or small terrace where a big kettle BBQ won't. After grilling, cleaning the grate and ash tray comes with the territory, as with any charcoal BBQ.
Who is it a good gift for?
Ideal for anyone who loves real charcoal flavour but has little space, or as a first serious BBQ. A lovely gift heading into terrace season. Less logical for someone cooking for big groups (choose bigger) or who wants the ease of gas without lighting/cleaning.
