It is nearly the end of summer, there are only a few more chances for you to see Ed and the team. The Royal County of Berkshire Show is one for the biggest. More importantly it is the last outdoors show, so it is the last chance for Ed to light-up the BarbeSkews and offer visitors a taste of the local produce, cooked by his own fair hands. When you find out what barbecued food should taste like you will be tempted to invest in a barbecue for next summer.

So before Ed curls up into a ball after a very busy summer and hibernates, you had better take your last chance! Click on the logo or their website link here for full details of the show.

BarbeSkew and the Red Arrows will be visiting one of England’s finest country houses. Sounds like a great mix of traditional and modern. Enjoy the spectacular gardens and a fascinating list of events and exhibits to see.

BarbeSkew has decided this year for the first time to exhibit at The Ideal Homes Show in March 2011.

The Ideal Home Show is Britain’s biggest and longest running event, boasting a massive 250,000 visitors in attendance at each show.

We will be displaying all three models of the BarbeSkew, as shown below, and performing demonstrations on how easy it is to cook on the BarbeSkew, and how each model enables you to cook four different ways:

• The large charcoal bbq grill, which enables you to lift and lower the charcoal tray to regulate the heat. You won’t see this on any other barbecue! First method of cooking is using the 9 short kebab skewers, which rotate automatically with the mains or battery motor.

• Our propane gas barbecue grill, which is unique, because it’s the only one of its kind that mainly uses rotisserie. Second method of cooking is using the two large cage skewers to cook beef burgers, steaks, fish, sausages etc. Third method is using the large single skewer to cook a joint or chicken! All turn automatically by the battery motor.

• The small portable bbq called BarbeSkew II, which is ideal for small gardens or a balcony! It’s very portable too, so you could put it in the back of the car and take it out for a spin, to either the park, beach or on a camping trip! Fourth method is the charcoal grill to convert it to a traditional bbq – the turn and burn method!

So if you want to see a BarbeSkew in action, then don’t delay, come along and see us! Also, watch out for any offers that may be available at the show!

BarbeSkew is also intending to exhibit at many other shows during the year. A list of all events will be displayed on our website shortly!

Tim Robinson, the Technical Director of RKS Laboratories, said “Our alliance with BarbeSkew will ensure that the product not only meets the latest quality standards, but exceeds these standards, and with the two companies working together, we aim to make the BarbeSkew one of the highest quality barbecues in the world.

Harrods are the latest retailer to confirm they will stock the BarbeSkew – the world’s first hands-free barbecue – and will feature it at their Barbecue Event Days.

The Harrods buyer stated “I like the BarbeSkew because it is not just another boring old grill. It is different from everything else that’s on the market and I think it represents an exciting new line of barbecues.”

Ed Wray, the Managing Director of BarbeSkew, said “Harrods are a world class retailer and so we are delighted they are participating in the BarbeSkew Revolution”

In line with this, BarbeSkew Company Limited are pleased to announce that from this point, the wood in the skewers will be sourced from FSC (Forest Sustainability Council) sources. The MD of BarbeSkew, Ed Wray, said “New consumer values demand new solutions and so I am proud the BarbeSkew is leading the field”.

BarbeSkew, the World’s First Hands-Free Barbecue, has been voted best new product at GLEE, one of Europe’s largest trade events for garden, pet and leisure.

Ed Wray, BarbeSkew’s Managing Director, says: “I am simply over the moon. This has been the perfect start to GLEE. The fact that this is an industry recognised award is a massive boost for what I believe is a product which will revolutionise the way people barbecue food in the future.”

The BarbeSkew, which cooks food to perfection, is a new design that makes barbecuing easier and safer than ever before. The days of black sausages with pink middles are over!

The BarbeSkew – which takes it name from BARBEcue and SKEWer – combines the traditional bbq with a spit roast. Instead of a grill above the flames, the BarbeSkew automatically slowly rotates the food on skewers ensuring it is cooked thoroughly but making sure it doesn’t burn. Larger produce such as fish and burgers can be cooked too by placing them in a rotating cages.

The BarbeSkew is the brainchild of entrepreneur Ed Wray who spotted a niche in the market while eating barbecued food at a party. Ed was motivated to design the BarbeSkew as he was fed up of eating badly prepared barbecued food. He says: “On a traditional barbecue, the food is placed on the grill – it burns. It is turned over – it burns. And then it is taken off the grill – uncooked. And what are you left with? Burnt uncooked food.” He continues: “The BarbeSkew not only prepares food properly but the chef can have a drink and chat to guests without worrying about constantly turning food over. And you can cook food in all weathers by closing the lid.”

The BarbeSkew has some brilliant features including:

* a charcoal tray that raises and lowers using a handle that gives fantastic heat control
* nine small kebab skewers and three large ones
* a chrome cage in which to cook fish or steaks to perfection
* an easy-clean removable charcoal / fat tray. It’s never been easier to clean your barbecue.

Over 1500 entries were registered this year with BarbeSkew Company Limited winning the Southern Region Award.

Ed says “With BarbeSkew heading towards being an international brand, it is just fantastic that the HSBC have seen the product and liked it, and this means BarbeSkew will receive tremendous promotion through the HSBC network and also through their sponsors The Daily Express and Sky News.
