Electric Barbecue Grills with or without Grill Cart: BBQ 4000 & BBQ 4100/S Explained

Grilling fans who love the barbecue experience but want a cleaner, more convenient way to cook will appreciate Rommelsbacher’s latest models: the BBQ 4000 and BBQ 4100/S. These electric grills bring the feeling of a classic kettle-style barbecue into a modern, electric format — with easier heat control, less smoke, and very little cleanup.

Whether you prefer a compact tabletop model or a complete grill station with extra mobility, both options offer a flexible and environmentally friendly way to enjoy outdoor (and indoor) grilling.

BBQ 4000: Compact, Powerful & Ready to Grill

The BBQ 4000 is a compact electric grill that’s quick to set up — just plug it into a standard outlet, and you're ready to go. Ideal for balconies, gardens, or even indoor spaces with proper ventilation, this model heats up fast and can reach up to 300°C, making it suitable for everything from searing meat to roasting vegetables or even baking pizza with a stone.

Its cast iron grill grate ensures excellent heat retention and adds those classic grill marks to your food. A built-in lid allows for indirect grilling, while the external temperature gauge helps you monitor cooking temperatures without lifting the lid. The result: full barbecue flavour, with minimal effort.
