George Foreman 3 Burner Gas BBQ (GFGBBQ3B) with Automatic Ignition & Integrated Thermometer
Product description
The essentials
If you’re after a gas BBQ that’s genuinely built for day-to-day cooking (not just a “special occasion” unit), this George Foreman 3 Burner model is the sort of setup that makes sense on a UK patio. It’s a three-burner gas barbecue with an integrated thermometer and automatic ignition, so you spend less time fiddling and more time getting food on.
On paper, the cooking space is sized at 60 x 42cm, designed to handle up to 10 portions at once. That immediately puts it in the “family hosting” category rather than compact, single-person grilling. It also uses 3 x 3kW burners, which should suit most typical backyard grilling needs.
What matters most in real use
The automatic ignition is one of those features you notice fast. Manual ignition can be a small faff, automatic ignition aims to make start-up quicker. Pair that with the integrated thermometer, and you get a clearer view of what’s happening while you cook—helpful if you like to hit a specific temperature and keep things consistent across the cooking session.
It also includes a side shelf, plus a fitted rack with shelves for condiments and utensils. The practical value here is that you’re not constantly leaving the “work zone” to grab a spatula, seasoning, or sauces.
A small but handy extra is the bottle opener, built in for when you’re doing the “slow afternoon” style BBQ rather than rushing dinner.

Note: the entry mentions an “integrated thermostat” and also refers to an “integrated thermometer”. It’s common for marketing copy to mix terms, but in buying terms you’ll want to confirm the exact sensing/control behaviour if that detail is important to you.
Where it shines (and where it may not)
This BBQ is best thought of as a mid-range, multi-burner option aimed at people who cook for more than just one or two people. If you regularly host, meal-prep for the week with batch cooking, or just like having enough space to run different items without crowding, the 60 x 42cm area and “up to 10 portions” claim give you a sensible target.
It may feel less compelling if you’re after maximum portability—there are 2 wheels fitted, but it’s still a full gas barbecue with a regulator/hose setup. If you’re moving it frequently across the garden or storing it in a tight space, you may find a smaller, lighter charcoal-style or compact gas unit easier to live with.
Who it’s for, and who should skip it
It suits you if you want a proper three-burner grill with automatic ignition and an integrated temperature readout, plus storage that keeps your tools and condiments close by. It’s the kind of BBQ you’d realistically use for weekend burgers, kebabs, chicken portions, and all the usual UK summer favourites.
It’s not for you if you mainly cook in very small batches, care most about ultra-compact storage, or you’re sensitive to the extra setup that comes with using gas (regulator/hose and all that).
Worth considering if you prioritise: - quicker start-up versus manual ignition - temperature awareness while you cook - space for cooking more than one “side + main” at a time
Practical tips to get better results
A simple way to make the most of a three-burner setup is to plan your cook like a two-zone session: hotter side for searing (burgers, steaks, chicken with skin), and a slightly gentler side for finishing through without burning. With the integrated thermometer helping you monitor temperature, you can adjust airflow/heat output more confidently than you can on grills without a built-in readout.
Also, use the side shelf and fitted rack as your “station”. Keep seasonings, utensils, and sauces organised so the grill session isn’t constantly interrupted.
Final verdict
It’s a solid pick if you want a three-burner gas BBQ with automatic ignition, a cooking area that can handle up to 10 portions, and onboard storage for a more organised cooking flow. The included UK regulator and hose remove one common buying hassle.
You may want to skip it if you need something ultra-portable or you mainly cook for one or two people—then a smaller setup could be more convenient and less of a footprint.
If you’re comparing options, think about your real hosting habits and whether automatic ignition plus integrated temperature control would genuinely make your BBQ sessions smoother.
