AS soon as it’s sunny, I can’t resist a barbecue.

And with outdoor socialising on the way back, I can’t wait to get grilling.

Here are some savvy ways to sizzle this summer

If you are an al fresco fan too, you might want to bang some burgers on a throwaway BBQ.

Or you could be looking to invest in a showstopper barbie in your garden.

Either way, here are my savvy ways to sizzle.

CHUCK IT AND SEE: Disposable barbecues make it so easy to throw an impromptu grill-out. They are cheap too.

I head to Asda for mine, where you can get a Bar-Be-Quick Instant Barbecue for just £2. They are light to carry and easy to dispose of afterwards.

Plus they are cheaper than those at B&Q for £3.50.

JOIN A SMALLER ’CUE: You need not go large on size or spend when it comes to a new barbecue.

A cheap’n’cheerful small grill-style set-up will get those bangers done just as nicely as a bigger set of more expensive kit.

I like Argos’ 35cm round charcoal BBQ at £10. It is straightforward to set up and cheaper than the similar one sold at wayfair.co.uk for £41.99.

SLICE WORK: Outdoor pizza ovens are a garden trend I can get on board with, although they can be quite costly.

But you don’t need to spend a lot if you look in the right places.

Previously, Lidl has done its own version in the summer for under £100, so that’s worth keeping an eye out for.

But I’ve also spotted great deals on Wowcher for just £67.99. Similar models by popular brand Ooni cost £299 and have a waiting list.

LESS TO SHELL OUT: This summer I would love to update my garden with a Big Green Egg BBQ at £430.

But I think instead I’ll head to networldsports.co.uk for my barbecue investment.

It is selling a Harrier ARVO Kamado Egg BBQ for £299.99, down from £429.99, and it looks nearly identical.

Michael said: “I always used to collect the fivers with Sun Savers and I’ve been playing The Sun Raffle for a while.

“I was shocked when I won, though.”

Michael, a postie for 21 years, lives in Enfield, North London, with wife Amanda, 54.

He bought their winning paper from the Tesco Esso Express on Hertford Road, Enfield.

Michael added: “When we can go out, we’ll use the winnings to go for a nice meal.

“I’m an Arsenal season ticket-holder and go to games with my 21-year-old lad, so maybe we could put the win towards an afternoon there once lockdown is lifted.”

Fancy trying your luck, like Michael?
