As barbecue grilling grows in popularity, manufacturers are offering fresh ideas in the area of barbeque to keep up with consumer demands. These new trends, whether advanced technologies that allow for precise temperature control or a flexible design that allows for multiple kinds of fuel are helping people enjoy their BBQ experience.
Modern technologies are transforming the traditional method of cooking, despite its deep roots in the tradition. It’s now more precise and reliable. For example Big Green Egg’s ceramic kamado barbecues feature a plethora of functions that can serve as a smoker, pizza oven or grill, attracting various types of patrons. Green Mountain’s pellet grills are Wi-Fi-enabled so that customers can remotely monitor and control their smoked meals by using an app.
Although barbecue lovers may have their own rules and traditions (using the appropriate wood for various meats, and insisting on specific rubs and sauces) they’re also open to exploring new ideas. This is reflected by the current trend of fusions of flavor from around the world as barbecuers explore sauces, rubs and marinades that are influenced by international cuisines such as sweet Korean gochujang and spicy Mexican chipotle.
The market for BBQ in 2024 is predicted to grow due to the increasing number of people who are drawn to this outdoor activity due to its social and recreational benefits. Manufacturers are focusing on innovation and developing smarter grilling methods, as with energy-efficient versions of their products to appeal to environmentally-conscious consumers.
