Not really a fan of bbqs, I have been persuaded to purchase a table top bbq or plancha, gas driven, portable. I was wondering whether anyone out there has any experience of these things, which is better, bbq or plancha. Any glitches, recommendations please.
Ah, the days of the brai.
Thanks on advance.

Get a plancha if your not going for a wood/charcoal burner. I don't see the point of bbqs otherwise. I'm tempted by planchas but I do like charcoal. I have access to a Raymond BBQ. It's the top. I might treat myself some day. c€220.

I have an electric plancha, it’s great, ok you don’t get that barbecued taste but it is controllable, which is a massive plus when feeding other people as you can turn it down until they are ready to eat if they’re too busy necking all the rose. I find catering for other people increasingly fraught as I get older.

A plancha is a BBQ without the drips  A gas BBQ is a cooker for men who don't/won't cook. Sssshhhh! Don't let on  They're also dangerously collectable (apparently). Just one tip....get something with a side burner if possible. Unless you can live on charred aubergine and poivron, they're a Godsend for varying the veggies.

We have a gas plancha , cooked on it last night , kebabs and sweet corn , really easy . It's been a while since I ate food from a BBQ , it's mostly charred , although fresh lobster is great charred.
