Let’s face it, we’ve always loved a good barbecue come summertime. But it’s fair to say the humble garden grill has become even more central to many people’s dining experiences in recent months, as we’ve swapped eating out for eating at home more often.

According to Tesco, demand for barbecues has surged. A survey carried out by the supermarket revealed that just under half (45%) of people had purchased a new one in the past six months, and over one in 10 (11%) had snapped up a new barbecue within the last few weeks.Some 7% said they’d enjoyed up to seven barbecues during lockdown already.
