Firstgas Group CE, Paul Goodeve and the Firstgas hydrogen BBQ featured on the AM Show.

Duncan Garner, Mark Richardson and Amanda Gillies put the BBQ to the taste test as they wanted to see if a hydrogen BBQ cooks the same as a gas BBQ.

Mark thought the taste of his sausage and bacon was more “moist” than if cooked on a normal BBQ and also said he thought about 82% of the population would be in favour of a hydrogen BBQ after they ate something off it.
