Cinders Classic SG80 Gas Barbecue Grill

The Cinders Classic SG80 is a single-grill gas barbecue designed for professional outdoor catering use. Built to the same construction standards as the larger twin-grill model in the Cinders range, the SG80 offers a practical, self-contained cooking solution for operators who need reliable performance in a more portable format.

In a catering context, the SG80 performs well at steady-volume outdoor events — market trading, outdoor festivals, private event hire, and mobile food service. The high-pressure burner reaches cooking temperature in under five minutes and maintains consistent heat even in exposed, windy conditions. This kind of reliability during service matters when you have a queue forming and no time to manage temperamental equipment. The internal self-cleaning action — driven by reflected heat — means fat and residue burn off during use rather than accumulating, which reduces cleaning time between sessions.

Practically, the SG80 offers a number of genuine operational advantages:

• Rapid heat-up from cold reduces pre-service preparation time
• Wind-resistant burner maintains consistent cooking temperature outdoors
• Excess fat drains into a standard disposable ring-pull can — no specialist drip trays needed
• Folds flat to 215mm for compact transport and storage between events
• Optional flat griddle plate converts the unit for different menu applications

The leg design keeps the unit stable on uneven or soft ground — a genuine consideration for anyone using it on grass or compacted earth at outdoor events. When folded, the leg configuration also protects the burner controls during transit. An optional wheeled travel case is available for regular mobile use. No on-site assembly is required, which is useful when set-up time is limited.

The SG80 is best suited to sole traders, small catering teams, event hire companies, and market traders who need a dependable outdoor grill without the footprint or weight of a larger unit. It is also a practical choice for operators who already run a larger setup and need a supplementary grill for peak periods. For higher-throughput outdoor catering — larger events or continuous service across multiple menu lines — a heavier-duty twin-grill configuration would be worth considering.

If you're weighing up whether the SG80 is the right fit for your operation or want to talk through how it handles a specific type of service, we're happy to have that conversation before you commit.
