Cinders Classic TG160 Twin Grill Gas Barbecue
£1,517.00(£1,820.40 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Cinders TG160 is a twin-grill propane gas barbecue that has been a fixture in outdoor commercial catering since 1984. It was designed around a straightforward brief — reliable heat, practical versatility, and the ability to work hard in environments where fixed kitchen equipment simply cannot go. Very little has changed in its fundamental design over the decades, and in commercial catering terms, that consistency is a mark in its favour rather than a limitation. It arrives ready to use with no on-site assembly required.
The TG160 has a well-documented track record across some of the most demanding outdoor catering environments in the UK, including multi-day festival sites where continuous service is the expectation rather than the exception. The high-pressure burner reaches cooking temperature quickly and maintains consistent heat even in exposed, windy conditions — a practical consideration that is easy to overlook when specifying outdoor equipment. A single 19kg propane cylinder supports approximately twelve hours of continuous full-heat service, giving operators a workable measure for planning gas supply against expected session lengths.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages include:
- Stable on soft or uneven ground without additional fixing
- Rapid heat-up reduces pre-service preparation time
- Wind-resistant burner maintains consistent cooking temperature outdoors
- Self-cleaning cooking surface reduces downtime between service periods
- Accepts Gastronorm containers for buffet-style service presentation
The folded leg design shields the controls during transport, which is a considered detail for equipment that moves regularly between sites. It is not the right choice for very high-volume continuous service where a larger cooking area would be needed — if throughput is a primary concern, a heavier-duty model may suit better.
The TG160 is well suited to mobile caterers, event catering teams, outdoor hospitality venues, and operations that need a dependable portable cooking platform without the complexity of fixed infrastructure.
If you would like to talk through your event schedule, service volumes, or gas supply logistics before ordering, the team is happy to help you work through the details.
Frequently asked questions
Is the TG160 suitable for continuous multi-day festival catering?
Yes — the TG160 has a long track record on multi-day festival sites where continuous service is expected. Gas planning is straightforward given the well-established cylinder consumption rate, though operators running very high-volume continuous output should consider whether the cooking area is sufficient for their throughput before committing.
What gas supply does the TG160 require, and is it suitable for outdoor use in all weathers?
The TG160 runs on propane, which performs reliably in cold outdoor conditions unlike butane. The high-pressure burner is designed to maintain consistent heat in exposed and windy environments, which is a practical necessity for event and festival catering rather than a secondary consideration.
Can the TG160 be used for buffet-style service as well as direct grilling?
Yes — the cooking surface accepts Gastronorm containers, which makes it practical for holding and presenting food in a buffet format as well as direct grilling. This flexibility is useful for operations that need to transition between cooking and service presentation during an event.
