5 reasons to put a rolling basket on your barbie this summer
Garlic prawns that all make the platter, veg with proper char, and more time at the table with everyone else.
The first prawns hit the barbie just as everyone starts drifting towards the table. You go to turn one, it slips between the bars, and by the time you’ve flipped the rest someone’s already asking if they’re ready.
The Sizzo Rolling Grill Basket gives the small stuff its own spot on the grill. Load the mesh cylinder, close the lid and use the handle to roll the whole batch as it cooks. Here’s what changes when prawns and veg are that easy to get on the barbie.

1 The prawns make it to the platter
You bought a kilo of prawns because you knew everyone would go back for seconds. It’s a pain watching the smallest ones disappear into the drip tray before anyone’s had a first serve.
Sizzo’s fine mesh keeps prawns, sliced mushrooms and cherry tomatoes together while they cook. Close the lid, set the basket straight on the grill and tip the batch onto a platter when it’s ready.
Everyone gets a crack at the garlic prawns.
2 The veg gets the good bits off the grill
Think blistered capsicum edges, browned mushrooms and zucchini that tastes like it came off the barbie, not out of a foil parcel. It’s the sort of side people pick at before they’ve even grabbed a plate.
Foil steams. A grill mat blocks the flame. The open stainless-steel mesh lets heat and smoke reach the food, and a roll during the cook puts fresh sides to the heat. A little olive oil, lemon and salt at the table does the rest.
3 One roll turns the whole batch
Turning thirty prawns one at a time with tongs is how the first ones overcook while the last ones wait their turn. And it keeps you staring at the hotplate while the good conversation happens somewhere else.
With the basket, you nudge the wooden handle and the lot rolls over. Do it every few minutes and everything cooks evenly. The handle pops off too, so on most barbies you can close the hood between turns.
That’s one hand free for a cold drink.
4 Clean-up is a rinse, or the dishwasher
No foil to scrunch up, no skewers to soak, no hotplate to scrape while everyone else is on dessert.
The basket is 304 food-grade stainless steel, so it won’t rust and it doesn’t hang on to last weekend’s prawns. Give it a rinse under hot water or chuck it in the dishwasher. There’s no seasoning and no special storage. Dry it and it’s ready for next time.
5 It costs about the same as the prawns
One basket is $32 in the Summer BBQ Sale, roughly what you’d pay for a kilo of good prawns. The difference is that the basket comes back out every weekend.
It’s backed by a lifetime warranty: if it breaks under normal use, we replace it. And you’ve got 30 days to try it. If it’s not for you, send it back for a full refund.
Most people grab more than one, so the seafood and the veg cook side by side and the whole meal lands on the table together. That’s also where the free gifts kick in.

Quick questions
Will it fit my barbie?
At 9 × 30 cm it sits on pretty much any grill, from a kettle to a six-burner hooded barbie. It works on gas, charcoal, pellet grills and smokers.
Does it block the smoky flavour?
No. The open mesh lets flame and smoke reach every side, which is the whole point over foil or a mat.
What can I cook in it?
Anything that usually falls through the bars: prawns, veg, haloumi, mushrooms, fish pieces, calamari and baby potatoes.
What if it’s not for me?
You’ve got 30 days to try it. Send it back for a full refund if you’re not happy. It also comes with a lifetime warranty.
Sort the barbie before the next one
The prawns stay on the grill, the veg tastes like it was barbecued, and you get to sit down with everyone else.
