Buying New vs. Cleaning Your Old Barbecue

May 9th, 2012

As the weather begins to warm up, many of us will be looking forward to the hotter summer season, and with this comes an opportunity to socialise more as many Brits dig out the BBQ’s for the few sunny days we have. Unlike our fortunate Australian friends, BBQ’s are something we don’t get a long time window in which to use them, so it’s vitally important that at this time of year, you begin to think about updating your barbecue Llanelli. Here at Brisco Gas, we’re a leading company and have an extensive range of barbecues to provide you with an affordable choice to get you ready for the summer season.

You may head into your garden and look at your old barbecue and think why buy new when I can simply clean that one? Read on as our team explore these two options:

o Buying New- Buying a new barbecue means you will have re-assurance that it will last you for many years to come, and there’ll be no worry that during a party it’ll give up on you. Furthermore, your family might have expanded since last year, so a bigger barbecue may be something you need to purchase, as you don’t want the little ones getting hungry because you can’t fit enough sausages on!

o Cleaning- Cleaning takes time and when it comes to a barbecue, no matter if you’re the tidiest person around, it will inevitably be a messy job. If you’ve got the time and patience to spend cleaning your old barbecue then this could be a more cost effective solution. Whilst cleaning is ideal, there may problems that need fixing from last year. Often at the end of the summer season, we store the barbecue away in the shed and don’t think about it again until the next year, which is when you may realise that even cleaning isn’t going to provide you with a working cooker.

If you’re planning a big party this summer, whilst your barbecue Llanelli is important, don’t forget furniture hire South Wales to ensure success. Come to us here at Brisco Gas for your barbecue needs; browse through our website to find out more.

Looking After Marble Fireplaces

February 13th, 2012

The installation of a fireplace to your home has many benefits; not only will it add warmth but it will help to create a comforting and cosy atmosphere. Here at Brisco Gas we supply a wide range of high quality fireplaces Port Talbot that we are confident will suit any home, so whether you are looking for a contemporary fireplace to match your new build or a more traditional style, we have something for you.

We’ve been established for over 70 years and over that time have built up our knowledge and experience to ensure that we not only provide you with quality products but the service you are given is of equal quality.

One way of instantly creating a stylish and elegant look is to consider the different fire surrounds that you can have and one design that is always a timeless classic is marble. Read on as we explain a few tips to maintaining the look of your marble fireplace.

•    If you accidently spill something or damage your fireplace with coals, it’s important to clear it up immediately as if left it could be difficult to remove in the future.
•    Don’t use abrasive substances on the marble; when cleaning always use a soft cloth and warm, clean water.
•    If you have candles on your fireplace always use a holder as wax from the candle can penetrate the marble and will leave a mark or possibly stain.
•    Once you have cleaned the marble it’s good practice to get into the habit of polishing as this will maintain its look for longer; you can purchase specialised marble polish for this.

Fires are a great way of adding warmth to your home and to keep that warmth within, it may be worth investing in top quality windows South Wales which will also help to reduce those energy bills.

What Wood is Best for Wood Burning Stoves?

January 12th, 2012

If you are currently shopping around for wood burning stoves Swansea, you are most likely paying careful attention to the colour and style of each device in order to choose a stove that suits your existing décor and personal preferences perfectly. Once a suitable design has been chosen however, it is important to research the best kind of wood to use as without the right wood, your dreams of a lovely night in front of the fire could be dashed. Here at Brisco Gas, we are on hand with the knowledge and expertise to ensure your fire burns bright throughout winter.

When you choose us as your provider of a wood burning stove, we guarantee you will not be disappointed by the selection available to you. Contemporary and traditional properties alike will benefit greatly from one of our expertly supplied designs.

Having chosen the right wood burning stove for your home, follow these top tips to ensure your fire provides you with the heat and light expected from such a device.

Tip One: Choose Seasoned Wood

When buying wood suitable for your stove, it is important to remember that seasoned wood is always the best choice for a long lasting fire. If you are planning to chop your own wood, you will need to do this well in advance as seasoned wood has usually been cut and stored undercover for at least a year.

Tip Two: Research Wood Types

Each type of wood will burn differently therefore it is highly advisable to research each kind in order to establish which will be best for your needs. Generally speaking, dry hardwood will work well but oak is considered to be the best when it comes to burning consistently and providing stabilised heat.

If you are looking to source your own wood, be sure to ask around as locals may be thinking of using waste disposal Swansea to rid their property of unwanted wood; remember though that any varnished or painted wood will not be suitable and must not be used.

For further information regarding which wood to use in wood burning stoves Swansea, get in touch with the professionals here at Brisco Gas on 01792 894961.

Cooking Tips for BBQs Swansea

August 17th, 2011

Barbeques are an ideal time to gather up your family and friends and enjoy some quality time together. At Brisco, we have a wide range of products available for your BBQs Swansea to make your party a success.

We only stock barbeques of the highest quality from the Weber Grills range. By only stocking barbeques from a leading supplier, you can be assured that the stylish barbeques will provide every function you expect of them.

If like most people, you aren’t the most gifted chef when it comes to grill gourmet and you are quite literally fed up of burnt sausages that turn your teeth black upon contact, our dedicated team have devised some useful tips so you can impress your guests this summer.

Preparation

Before cooking, ensure your grill is completely clean. The last thing you want to do is give your guests food poisoning.
If cooking on a traditional charcoal barbeque, ensure your charcoal has an all-over white coating before cooking; taste can be seriously compromised if you rush into cooking before the charcoal has had a chance to completely burn.

Cooking

A lot depends on personal preference when it comes to cooking, especially in terms of how well-done you want your chicken, burgers and steaks etc. However, anyone who says they like their burgers black is just being polite. To reduce the risk of cremating your meat, keep a spray bottle of water at hand to deter inevitable flames that arise through fat and juices dripping off of the meat.

Remember, just because your meat appears cooked on the outside, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is completely cooked on the inside so always cut open your meat before serving.

Consider Your Guests

Your guests are going to need somewhere to sit down whilst enjoying your tasty foods, so consider top of the range garden furniture for a stylish selection of garden tables and chairs.

For more information feel free to visit us in store and a member of staff will be happy to answer any questions you have to ensure you have the best possible BBQs Swansea this summer.
