The Best 2-Burner Gas BBQs (UK 2026)
A 2-burner gas BBQ is compact, affordable and easy to store - ideal for couples, small families, patios and balconies. Here's what to look for and our top 2-burner picks.
Quick answer
Two burners suit one to four people and still allow basic zone cooking - one burner on, one off - for indirect heat. Models from Char-Broil, VonHaus, Outsunny and Charles Bentley offer good value. Prioritise a small footprint that fits your space, decent grates, and a lid so you can cook thicker food through. It's the sensible choice if you grill occasionally or are short on room.
What to look for
Footprint first - measure your patio or balcony and check the assembled width, including side shelves. Look for two individually controlled burners so you can still cook indirectly. A lid, ideally with a thermometer, greatly expands what you can cook. Check the grate material, as cheap thin grates are the most common weak point at this price. Foldable side shelves help if storage is tight.

Frequently asked questions
Is a 2-burner gas BBQ big enough?
For one to four people, yes - a 2-burner comfortably cooks a meal for a small household and takes up far less space than a bigger grill. You can still cook indirectly by running one burner and leaving the other off. If you regularly cook for six or more, or want to grill several different foods at once, step up to a 3 or 4-burner.
Can you use a gas BBQ on a balcony?
Often yes, but check first - many leases, rental agreements and building rules restrict barbecue use on balconies, and some ban it outright. If it is permitted, choose a compact 2-burner or portable model, never use it indoors or under an enclosed overhang, keep it well clear of walls, railings and anything flammable, and never leave it unattended while lit.
