For outdoor adventures, nothing beats the thrill of cooking a tasty meal in the heart of Australia’s stunning landscapes. Whether you’re camping in the outback, picnicking by the beach, or enjoying a road trip through the bush, the STOV BBQ stands out as the best portable BBQ in Australia. This compact, versatile, and high-performing grill is designed for adventurers who crave convenience without compromising on quality. Let’s explore why the STOV barbecue is the ultimate choice for camping and why its multi-fuel capabilities make it a game-changer for outdoor cooking.

Unmatched portability for camping adventures

The STOV BBQ is engineered with portability in mind, making it the perfect companion for camping trips across Australia. Weighing just 3.6kg and featuring a flatpack design, this grill packs down to a slim 47cm x 29cm x 4cm, easily fitting into any car, camper van, 4x4, or even a backpack. Its lightweight construction and compact size mean you can take it anywhere - from remote campsites to coastal national parks - without sacrificing space or adding unnecessary weight to your gear.

Setting up the STOV barbecue grill is a breeze. It assembles in seconds without the need for tools, allowing you to focus on enjoying your camping experience rather than wrestling with complicated equipment. Whether you’re grilling burgers at a scenic lookout or cooking fresh fish by the river, the STOV BBQ’s portability ensures you can bring restaurant-quality cooking to the great outdoors.

Multi-fuel versatility: gas, charcoal, or wood

One of the standout features that makes the STOV BBQ the best multi-fuel portable BBQ in Australia is its incredible versatility. While it primarily operates as a gas-powered grill using standard EN417 camping gas cartridges (offering up to 200 minutes of cooking time with a 460g cartridge), it also supports charcoal and wood with a separate accessory. This multi-fuel capability sets it apart from other portable barbecues, giving you the freedom to choose the fuel that best suits your camping needs.

• Gas: The STOV grill’s 2.4kW burner delivers consistent heat and precise temperature control, making it ideal for quick and hassle-free cooking. Gas is clean, efficient, and perfect for campers who prioritise convenience and minimal cleanup.

• Charcoal: For those who love the classic smoky flavour of a charcoal BBQ, the STOV can be adapted with a charcoal accessory.

• Wood: With the charcoal tray the STOV transforms into a mini fire pit, perfect for creating that romantic camping vibe. This option is great for campers who want to use locally sourced wood and enjoy a traditional outdoor grilling experience.

This multi-fuel flexibility makes the STOV BBQ the most versatile portable grill on the market, catering to every camper’s preferences, from modern convenience (with gas) to rustic charm (cooking with charcoal).

High-quality design built for the Aussie outdoors

Crafted from brushed 304 stainless steel, the STOV BBQ is built to withstand the rugged conditions of Australia’s diverse environments. Whether you’re camping in the humid tropics, the arid desert, or salty coastal waters, this barbecue’s durable, food-safe materials ensure long-lasting performance. Its 5-year warranty on the body and grill further guarantees reliability, giving you peace of mind on every adventure.

The STOV grill’s compact cooking surface (31.5cm x 21cm, 660cm²) is deceptively powerful, capable of handling 6 burger patties, 1kg of prawns, or 8 corn cobs at once. Despite its small footprint, it delivers the performance of a full-sized backyard BBQ, making it ideal for solo campers, couples, or small groups. The stainless steel construction also makes cleaning a breeze - simply scrape the grill grate, wipe down with paper towels, and use an eco-friendly foam cleaner for a spotless finish.

Why campers love the STOV BBQ

Camping in Australia often means navigating fire bans, unpredictable weather, and limited space, but the STOV barbecue rises to every challenge. Here’s why it’s a camper’s dream:

• Fire ban friendly: In some Australian states and territories, gas BBQs are permitted during fire bans (unlike solid fuel options), making the STOV a safe and compliant choice for responsible camping. Always check local regulations, but the STOV’s gas-powered option ensures you can still enjoy a barbecue when restrictions are in place.

• Quick and easy setup: With no tools required, the STOV grill heats up quickly, so you can start cooking sooner and spend more time exploring or relaxing.

• Consistent heat distribution: The 2.4kW burner provides even heat across the grill, ensuring perfectly cooked meals every time, whether you’re searing steaks or slow-cooking veggies.

• Eco-conscious design: The STOV BBQ’s gas option reduces mess compared to charcoal, and its durable construction means it’s built to last, reducing waste over time.

Customer reviews echo this enthusiasm. One happy camper, Ruben C., raves, “Absolute brilliant product. I use it most weekends when out and about and it lives in the back of my 4x4! BBQ anywhere any time!”

Perfect for every camping scenario

The STOV BBQ’s versatility extends beyond camping to a wide range of outdoor activities. Its compact design makes it ideal for:

• Beach picnics: Grill fresh seafood or snags by the shore with the STOV’s portable setup.

• Road trips: Toss it in your car or camper for spontaneous barbecues at scenic rest stops.

• Balcony BBQs: Even urban campers can enjoy the STOV on small balconies or patios.

• Boating or motorbike trips: Its lightweight flatpack design fits easily on boats or in motorbike panniers.

No matter where your adventures take you, the STOV barbecue ensures you can enjoy delicious, freshly grilled meals with minimal effort.

Accessories to enhance your camping BBQ experience

To make your camping experience even better, the STOV BBQ offers accessories that boost its functionality:

• Charcoal tray accessory: Unlock the smoky flavours of charcoal or the rustic charm of wood-fired cooking.

• Spatula: The new barbecue spatula is a great tool to flip burgers, steaks, chicken or vegetables.

• Windshield: The windshield for the STOV BBQ is a must have. It keeps the surface heat up and makes your barbecue more efficient.

These accessories make the STOV the most adaptable portable BBQ for campers who want to elevate their outdoor cooking game.

Why STOV BBQ is the best choice for Australian campers

In a market filled with portable BBQs, the STOV stands out for its lightweight design, multi-fuel versatility, and premium build quality.

Its ability to perform like a backyard barbecue while being easy to carry and set up makes it the top choice for camping fans across Australia.
