Cadac Carri Chef 40 BBQ Dome Combination (Grey)

What gas cartridges does the Cadac Carri Chef 40 use?

This barbecue uses standard LPG gas cartridges that connect via the built-in regulator. The utility shelf is specifically designed to safely hold Cadac Power Pak gas supplies. You can also use other compatible LPG cartridges with the appropriate connector. The efficient burner system provides excellent fuel economy during cooking sessions.

How large is the cooking surface area?

The cooking surface measures 1227 square centimetres, which is sufficient for cooking for 4-6 people. The 39cm diameter ceramic grid provides ample space for steaks, burgers, vegetables and fish. The single-level grill configuration maximises the available cooking area while maintaining even heat distribution across the entire surface.

Can I use other cooking surfaces on this barbecue?

Yes, the modular design accepts all Series 40 cooking surfaces from Cadac. This includes paella pans, pizza stones, wok tops and griddle plates. Simply remove the standard BBQ grid and replace it with your preferred cooking surface. This versatility transforms the barbecue into a complete outdoor cooking system.

How stable is this barbecue on uneven ground?

The barbecue features an adjustable foot on one leg that compensates for uneven surfaces up to several centimetres. This makes it perfect for camping where level ground isn't always available. The three-leg design with the adjustable foot provides excellent stability during cooking, preventing wobbling or tipping.

What's included in the storage system?

The barbecue comes with a durable storage bag that holds the main unit and dome lid. A separate padded leg bag protects the legs during transport and storage. Both bags feature strong zips and handles for easy carrying. The compact packed size makes storage in cars, caravans, or sheds straightforward.

How easy is the barbecue to clean after use?

The ceramic GreenGrill coating on the BBQ grid has non-stick properties that make cleaning simple. The removable fat pan lifts out completely for washing. The enamelled finish resists staining and wipes clean easily. The flame peep holes in the fat pan allow grease to drain away from food during cooking.

Does the dome lid improve cooking performance?

The dome lid creates an oven effect that cooks food more evenly and retains moisture. The integrated thermometer allows you to monitor internal temperature for different cooking methods. When not covering food, the dome hooks onto the side of the barbecue and acts as a windshield to protect the flame from breezes.

What are the assembled dimensions of this barbecue?

When fully assembled, the barbecue measures 52cm wide, 45cm deep and 86cm high. The cooking height is comfortable for most people without bending. The compact footprint means it fits on small patios or camping pitches. Despite the compact size, the cooking area remains generous for family meals.
