Another kettle to add to the list, however it's certainly worth it. This does sell out quite a lot, so if you are after the Napoleon Pro it's worth getting it as soon as you see it in stock.

If you’re interested in smoking food but don’t want to jump straight to a pure smoker, the Ranger Elite makes for a solid compromise. A hanger with five hooks provides ample space for smoking meats, but the ProQ is capable of grilling and even stir-frying too. A very versatile option to test the waters of smoking for under £250!

Okay, this is cheating a little bit since it’s not a full out smoker. The ProQ Cold Smoke Generator provides cold smoking capabilities to most smokers (including the three on this list), however, and it’s quite a nice toy for under £40. Cold smoking gives a smoky flavour to foods without cooking them: cheeses, nuts, butter, just about anything. Cold smoking is a wonderful capability to add on to whichever smoker fits your needs.

For around £319 (two burners) or £400 (three burners), it’s not the cheapest pick around, but if you’re looking a quality basic gas grill with no frills it’s tough to beat the Spirit-E-310.

If you’re looking for a few more features than you can find on the Weber Spirit but don’t feel like shelling out major cash, the Char-Broil 3-burner is right up your alley.
