It’s not a secret that dads and barbecues go together like ribs and sauce. For some fathers, there is no greater passion than the grill - this is where dad goes to demonstrate his expertise, flex his tongs, and feed the whole family! So why not support him in his sizzling endeavours? Do your part to fire up the family fun with some of the top gift ideas for the barbecue-loving dads in your life.
1. A New ‘Cue
What better way to tell dad you love him than to go the full-meal-deal and get him a brand new barbecue? Whether he is currently grill-less or already has a treasured backyard companion, there is such a wide variety of barbecues available these days that you are sure to be able to find him the perfect gift.
For Camping
A great Father's Day option is getting your dad a portable grill. This way, wherever he is, he can still fire up the ‘barbie to craft his favourite meal. Check out our great selection of portable grills and choose for yourself what option might suit dad best.
For an Upgrade
Your dad's barbecue “is fine!’ - it just takes a while to light, has a super low flame, and tends to smoke a lot regardless of what’s in it. No matter how attached the man may be to his holy grill, it’s time for a replacement - and better to get one before the situation devolves into a more serious safety issue! Choose a full sized barbecue you know he will love just as much as the one that has faithfully served him for so many years - the options are endless and he’s sure to thank you later!
2. A Smoke Show!
Is meat smoking just a fad, or is it a worthy investment for your dad? If your father is a true grill aficionado, perhaps it’s time to encourage him into new territory with some smoking accessories! Make this year an exceptional grilling season and ignite his passion for BBQ even further by getting him started with everything you need to smoke meat. You can find a professional but reasonably priced smoke box here and our favourite variety pack of wood chips here.
3. King of the Grill
If you’re still not sure what to get for your dad to fill his barbecue-loving heart up with pride and joy, you can’t go wrong with some new grilling tools. This is one area of the grilling lifestyle that isn’t often taken advantage of - people fail to realize just how much the right barbecue accessories can improve not only your meal but the chef's experience of cooking it! Go ahead and get dad a brand new set of tongs and watch the difference it makes. Better yet, get him a full tool set of grilling equipment and watch how much he enjoys it! It doesn’t hurt to add a gag apron - even if it is practical, too.
