On the territory of the entire post-Soviet space, noisy and long May holidays become the beginning of the barbecue season. With the onset of warm days, friends and relatives go out into the countryside en masse and cook meat on an open fire. As a rule, each company has 2-3 people who are responsible for such a dish. According to such connoisseurs, a properly selected brazier has a great influence on the quality and taste of the final culinary masterpiece.
From the language of some eastern peoples, the word "mangal" is translated as "brazier". It is a simple rectangular metal box. In the process of cooking a shish kebab, a suitable form of firewood is placed on the bottom of such a device, set on fire and, after burning, turns into embers, on which the meat is cooked.
Most models have holes to ensure uniform heating of the walls of the structure. Thus, products are cooked not only from the heat of coal, but also from the heat of the metal. In some cases, there may be no technological holes in metal boxes, but a layer of mineral wool is laid between the double walls of the structure. Near such devices, the heat of the fire is least felt, and all the heat remains inside.
When choosing a barbecue, first of all it is worth finding out what metal it is made of, because it is the metal that has to regularly warm up to 800 degrees and cool down to normal temperatures. If the legs of the presented model are made of aluminum, then it will be unreliable and will not last long; in addition, an unstable grill is simply dangerous.
If we are talking about a portable product, it is preferable to pay attention to stainless steel, while the thickness of the steel should not be less than 1-1.5 mm. Otherwise, the heat will be removed so quickly that you can cook as much sausage as possible, but not meat, and the walls of the box deform very quickly under the influence of temperatures.
The service life of the device as a whole directly depends on the thickness of the metal walls. For example, stationary barbecues with 3 mm walls serve faithfully for about 10 years.
Portable barbecues are sold in stores disassembled, therefore, before buying, it is worth checking that all the provided parts are included in the kit. The fewer components included in the kit, the more chances you have not to lose them in the forest during the feast. When folded, these braziers can be easily folded into a case, the size of a familiar suitcase and perfectly fit in the trunk of cars.
Often in collapsible and thin-walled models, it is impossible to set fire to firewood so as not to damage the product. Such installations, as a rule, are equipped with starters - special containers in the form of large mugs, where the firewood burns to the state of coals. Only then can the fuel be transferred with a special spatula into the firebox.
A stationary brazier should be chosen from cast iron. Although this metal corrodes over time, dishes made with it are especially tasty and healthy.
Another important point worth considering when buying is the installation height - it should not be either very low or too high. Optimal depth is approximately 20 cm. The maximum required width of the structure is no more than 30 cm, and its length depends on the number of eaters - from 50 to 100 cm. In some cases, skewers may be included in the kit, while in other variations they are not.
Experts do not advise using barbecues with painted parts, since a certain amount of any even the most heat-resistant paint can get into the finished product, and this is unsafe for your health.
If the surrounding landscape is designed in a certain style, then, of course, it is appropriate if the design of the stationary barbecue and its decorative elements will harmoniously fit into the surrounding space.
V recent times on store shelves, you can find disposable barbecues in the form of a sealed polyethylene tray with a stand and a grate. The tray is stacked in rows charcoal... The operation of such a device is designed for 2 hours, during which you can successfully cook vegetables, sausages or pieces of poultry. As a rule, such models are not designed for the preparation of a classic kebab.
