In a typical British summer, you don’t need the sun to throw a good BBQ – relentless enthusiasm and a funny apron will usually be enough.

But this solar-powered BBQ by SolSource will make you hope for a bit more sun. Not only is it more environmentally friendly than a gas or charcoal barbecue, but it will cook your bangers in minutes.

Because it uses solar energy, you can use it anywhere without worrying about running out of fuel or bringing more charcoal.

Case in point, they designed and tested the product with nomads on the Himalayan Plateu – it’s wind and snow resistant, so it’s probably going to hold up pretty well during a typically grim British summer.

And while it’s a bit large to take with you to festivals this summer, as long as it’s pointing at the sun you can cook with it anywhere.

The product’s being backed on Kickstarter, so head to their page if you want to pledge support or get more information.
