        "content": "Here\u2019s a compiled list of UK-based manufacturers and brands that either produce gas barbecues (for domestic use) or are prominently involved in the UK gas BBQ market. Some are full manufacturers, others are brands designing for the UK market; availability, country of manufacture, and UK production vary.\n\n---\n\n## UK Manufacturers / Brands Designing & Selling Gas BBQs\n\n| Brand / Manufacturer | Location / HQ | Description / What They Make | Key Notes |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| **Cinders Barbecues Ltd** | North Yorkshire, England | Hand-crafted gas BBQs and large scale outdoor cooking equipment manufactured in their UK factory (15,000 sq ft). ([cindersbarbecues.co.uk](https://www.cindersbarbecues.co.uk/?utm_source=openai)) | Their gas BBQs are UK-made, with long-term spares support (up to 20 years) for their models. ([cindersbarbecues.co.uk](https://www.cindersbarbecues.co.uk/?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **CosmoGrill** | United Kingdom | Offers a range of gas barbecues and accessories aimed at domestic users. ([cosmogrill.co.uk](https://cosmogrill.co.uk/?utm_source=openai)) | Not clear how much is manufactured in the UK vs imported; however, warranty and UK customer service are prominent. ([cosmogrill.co.uk](https://cosmogrill.co.uk/?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Grillstream (LeisureGrow)** | Hertfordshire, England | Hybrid gas/charcoal BBQs, gas grills with \u201cdual grill\u201d features. ([hypersynes.com](https://www.hypersynes.com/post/united-kingdom-outdoor-cooking-brands-list-2025?utm_source=openai)) | UK design & brand; some manufacturing may be overseas (usual for components), but significant brand presence in UK market. ([hypersynes.com](https://www.hypersynes.com/post/united-kingdom-outdoor-cooking-brands-list-2025?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Outback (Outback Barbecues)** | Kent, England | Offers family gas and charcoal barbecue ranges. One of the longstanding domestic UK brands. ([hypersynes.com](https://www.hypersynes.com/post/united-kingdom-outdoor-cooking-brands-list-2025?utm_source=openai)) | Good value; popular UK-market options. ([hypersynes.com](https://www.hypersynes.com/post/united-kingdom-outdoor-cooking-brands-list-2025?utm_source=openai)) |\n\n---\n\n## Brands / Products Distributed in UK, but Not UK Manufacturers\n\nThese are imported brands or brands whose production is largely overseas, but they have strong UK presence:\n\n- **Bull BBQ / Bull Outdoor Products Inc.** \u2013 American origin; offers American-designed stainless steel gas BBQs via a European hub serving UK/EMEA. ([bullbbq.co.uk](https://bullbbq.co.uk/about-us/?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Napoleon Grills** \u2013 Canadian brand with build quality, widely available in UK. ([oaktreegardencentre.com](https://oaktreegardencentre.com/collections/bbqs-by-brand?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Weber** \u2013 US brand; very well established in UK for gas and charcoal models. ([oaktreegardencentre.com](https://oaktreegardencentre.com/collections/bbqs-by-brand?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Campingaz** \u2013 French brand; imported, with UK stockists for gas and camping-style BBQs / griddles. ([awsmith-calorgas.co.uk](https://www.awsmith-calorgas.co.uk/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Gas Suppliers / Broader LPG Products Makers\n\nThese companies supply the fuel (gas bottles, LPG) rather than BBQ units themselves, though they are part of the domestic gas-BBQ ecosystem:\n\n- **Calor Gas** \u2013 Dominant LPG supplier in the UK; products include butane and propane in cylinders for BBQs etc. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calor_Gas?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Flogas** \u2013 Strong presence for bottled gas, cylinders etc. UK-wide network of depots. ([flogas.co.uk](https://www.flogas.co.uk/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n### Clarifying Definitions\n\n- By \u201cgas BBQ manufacturer,\u201d this list focuses on makers/designers of domestic gas barbecues\u2014not just gas suppliers or accessory makers.\n- Some UK brands design/distribute, but may import parts or assemble outside the UK.\n- Availability and in-UK production can vary by model; just because a brand is UK-based doesn\u2019t guarantee 100% UK manufacture.\n\n---\n\nIf you'd like, I can try to track down which of these brands *manufacture locally in the UK* versus those who import or assemble \u2014 would you prefer that level of detail?"
