The Lotusgrill is a healthy, easy to use & easily transportable BBQ cooking option. Whereas regular coal BBQs can take about 40 minutes to reach the optimum cooking temperature, the Lotus Grill, with its innovative fan system can be ready to cook in 3-4 minutes. Its fan is powered by AA batteries (included), which means that you don't require gas or electricity to run it. The airflow system means that because the charcoal burns very quickly, smoke is prevented. The fan can be adjusted which means that you can control & adjust the cooking temperature effortlessly.
