Are you a fan of relaxing weekend barbeques? Sizzling sirloin steaks, herb infused Cumberland sausages and butter topped grilled vegetables……. Though getting the fire started can be a long procedure, you have to wait all that time for a plate of grub and then it’s back to cooking duty again. Well for anyone that is lucky enough to live in a country that sees the sun all year round, you could opt for the latest ‘Solar barbeque grill’
They haven’t really taken off in popularity yet, but the idea seems sound; they are currently selling for abut 125 pounds in the UK of all places. The solar grill works on a very simple design, there is a curved sheet of metal with a highly reflective surface; in the center is a black metal holder bar onto which the suns rays are focused. There’s not lot of mention about cooking times, but one site says it can take as little as 25-30 minutes on a hot day; to prevent burning you simply tip the barbeque into a less reflected angle to the sun.
If you don’t have the money to buy a solar barbeque, they are apparently very easy to make the greeniacs.com website offers up their own step by step guide; check out the finished product in the video below.
