Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I invest more money to purchase a better-quality BBQ?

Like most purchases you will make buying a BBQ should be treated like an investment, cheap BBQ’s will become land fill in one to 5 years, even some of the brand name ones.

It is important to purchase a BBQ with an exceptional warranty and from a manufacturer that has a long-established reputation.

Most of the BBQs we sell have a minimum 15 year warranty and some models have limited lifetime warranties which are the highest quality available.

What should I look for in a better-quality BBQ?

The manufacturer’s warranty is the top priority, followed by the quality features that make the BBQ a better long-term value.

These include durable stainless steel cooking grids with a lifetime warranty, an easy-to-maintain porcelain-coated lid, and galvanized steel components with powder-coated finishes.

We also ensure the BBQ delivers enough BTUs per square inch to perform reliably, even in Canadian winters.

Which type of BBQ is best for me?

Charcoal (natural lump) Ex: Big Green Egg, Ambiance

  • Food flavour: it simply tastes better
  • Versatile: from smoking at 200 degrees to searing at 1,000 degrees
  • Some charcoal cookers also double as pizza ovens
  • Takes longer to heat up than gas or propane, and 7-10 Hour cooking time is common
  • Requires more cleaning and can be dirtier than other types of BBQs

Propane or Natural Gas Ex: Napoleon Rogue, Prestige and Prestige Pro

  • Ease of use: turn on and it is ready to use
  • Very easy to clean and maintain
  • Natural Gas: You will never run out of fuel, can have up to a 25-foot flex hose for moving BBQ from one location to another
  • Food does not taste as flavourful as cooking over charcoal, most BBQs can no longer be converted from one fuel to the other (and / or its not financially practical to do so); some propane BBQs can be piped into your home propane (if you have one)

Where to Purchase? The Big Box stores specialize in the sale of bargain BBQs. Their BBQs will differ from BBQs offered at specialty stores:

  • Specialty BBQ stores service what they sell.
  • Parts on higher quality BBQs will be available for longer periods of time
  • Specialty BBQs are made of 304 grade stainless steel, porcelain enamel and powder coated galvanized whereas many Big Box BBQs use 410 stainless steel (both look the same, but 410 rusts) and poor quality painted metal that will rust in our climate.
  • Specialty store BBQs often have lifetime warranties on many components

What is a pellet grill, and how does it work?

A pellet grill uses compressed wood pellets as fuel for consistent heat and a rich, smoky flavour. It combines the convenience of gas grills with the taste benefits of wood fire grilling.

Are pellet grills easy to clean and maintain?

Yes, regular maintenance includes emptying the ash pan, cleaning the grease tray, and occasionally sweeping/vacuuming out pellet dust.

Can I use any kind of wood pellets in my pellet grill?

While many wood pellets may be compatible, using high-quality, food-grade pellets is recommended for the best results.

What makes a pellet grill different from a traditional BBQ?

Pellet grills offer more versatility, allowing you to smoke, grill, bake, and roast. Traditional BBQs also have limited temperature ranges and functions.

Is a pellet grill suitable for year-round use in Canada?

Yes. Pellet grills like the Ambiance® Bull Pit® 1000 are designed to perform well in colder climates. As they are Canadian-made, they are ideal for Canadian winters.

How do I store my pellet grill during winter?

It’s best to store your grill in a sheltered area and use a weather-resistant cover to protect it from snow and moisture. Regular maintenance before storage will also prolong its lifespan.
