Amazon’s top-selling BBQ comes with a built-in smoker
SUNLIFER Charcoal BBQ Grill With Offset Smoker, £84.99
The Jattvibelifer charcoal BBQ costs £84.99 and is at the very top of Amazon’s best-selling outdoor barbecues list.
What makes it stand out is the built-in offset smoker, which gives shoppers a way to add deeper smoky flavour to ribs, chicken and brisket without spending hundreds on a larger setup.
The main grill also comes with a built-in thermometer, so you can keep an eye on the temperature without lifting the lid, while adjustable air vents help control both heat and smoke.
There’s a generous 62 x 30cm cooking grate, a smaller side grate, and a warming rack for food that’s ready before everything else.
It also looks designed for real-life use rather than just the product page.
Two storage shelves give you space for utensils and plates, while cart-style wheels and stainless steel handles make it easier to move around the garden.

Shoppers seem particularly impressed by the smoker.
One reviewer called it “a true game-changer” and said: “The smoke feature works like a dream, infusing every piece of meat with that perfect, deep smoky flavour that you just can’t get from a standard grill.”
Another wrote that it “grills and smokes very well”, adding that it heats up quickly, holds an even temperature and makes airflow adjustments simple.
A third said they were “pleasantly surprised at how sturdy and strong it was” for the price, with their first test run delivering “charcoal-flavoured perfection”.
