It takes less than 60 seconds to convert the barbecue from gas to charcoal
Amazon shoppers are snapping up a barbecue that's currently on sale and lets you cook using gas or coal. The black Char-Broil Gas2Coal Hybrid Grill has three stainless steel burners, sturdy cast-iron grill grates and a sideburner.
Amazon is offering a huge £160 discount on the barbecue for a limited time, with the garden appliance costing £369.99, down from £529.99. B&Q has the same appliance for £495, while John Lewis is selling a special edition of the barbecue for £599.99.
The Char-Broil Gas2Coal Hybrid Grill has a patented charcoal tray that ensures less flare-ups and evenly distributes the heat for a perfect cook. The coal is placed into the charcoal tray and simply ignited with the gas burners, without any barbecue lighter at all.

The grates provide enough grilling space to feed several people, so whether you're having a barbecue with the family or hosting a garden party, you can cook plenty of delicious food. The grates provide perfect sear strip marks and are durable, rust-resistant and easy to clean.
It takes less than 60 seconds to convert the Char-Broil Gas2Coal Hybrid Grill from a gas barbecue into a charcoal one, and no tools are required. The barbecue lid has a mounted temperature gauge allowing you to easily read the preheat status and monitor the grill temperature as you cook.
The barbecue sideburner allows you to make sauces and side dishes that will complement whatever you're grilling. If you don't need the sideburner, you can conveniently pop the lid down and use it as an extra workspace.

If you don't fancy assembling the barbecue yourself, you can pay £60 for Amazon to unpack and build it for you in your garden. Over 900 Amazon customers have reviewed the hybrid barbecue, with it receiving an average rating of 4.6 out of five.
One shopper said: "Best of both worlds. The perfect BBQ, gas when you need it quick, charcoal for flavour. I use the basket with charcoal and light up the gas for around ten minutes which heats the coals. No adding firelighters or fuel that can taint flavour. Highly recommended."
A second wrote: "Amazing BBQ, very good build quality, easy to switch from gas to charcoal and the cast iron grates cook the food that little bit better than standard grills. Absolutely love being able to use the gas to light the coals or just use gas if I can't be bothered with coal! Highly recommend!"
A third commented: "Excellent assembly instructions (no bits missing), great that you can use gas or charcoal and it cooks very well." Someone else added: "Great BBQ, love the dual fuel element and the fact you can light the charcoal with the gas. Well built and very sturdy."
Despite one shopper loving the barbecue itself, they weren't impressed with how long it took to assemble. They explained: "It's a brilliant barbecue - love the fact you can use gas and coals. But after reading the reviews, definitely pay for the assembly... The instructions once you have read twice are clear but it does take time. It's a very well built barbecue and when you're putting this together the craftsmanship is excellent - all the screws are coated and line up. We are so glad we got this and once up and working it's very easy to use and clean, so a happy summer and winter ahead."
