Evergrill Butangas Camping Gasgrill 2300 Watt

A grill from an angling mail-order shop

Behind the Evergrill there is no grill manufacturer. It is sold by Angel Domäne, a mail-order retailer for angling gear that, by its own account, was founded in 1989 and now stocks more than 15,000 items. The operator is e.webstores GmbH & Co.KG in Beverungen. The same company is named in the product safety information under the GPSR (the EU General Product Safety Regulation) as manufacturer and as the responsible person in the EU.

What we mean here is the “Butangas Camping Gasgrill Evergrill mit Transportkoffer” (butane camping gas grill Evergrill with carry case), with order number 09-8051100 and EAN 4250789839674. The Amazon catalogue lists the same part number, plus the model designation BBQ-138. We searched for a manual under this abbreviation, without success.

On the Amazon page on 21 October 2026 it stood at €59.99, so approx. €60. We list it under gas grills, though by design it is more of a tabletop cooker with a grate: flat housing, a cartridge inserted at the side, a grid on top.

We did not have the grill in front of us and did not grill anything on it. Our sources are two product pages on angel-domaene.de (single appliance and set with cartridges), the retailer’s GPSR information, the Amazon catalogue and the product photo.

Housing, burner bars, grate: the construction

In the photo the housing is blue, with “BBQ Camping Grill Evergrill 2300 W” in white lettering on the front. On the left the grid grate sits in a dark tray with a raised rim, and you can see the burner bars through the grid. On the right sits a cover with printed notes. At the front right are the control knob and a small lever, and in the photo the markings RELEASE and OFF can be read. On cartridge cookers of this design, the cartridge sits under exactly this kind of cover.

The burner bars are made of aluminium. Together they produce, according to the retailer, a nominal heat output of approx. 2,300 watts at a gas consumption of approx. 168 g per hour. The output is regulated steplessly with the control knob. Ignition is “without flame by means of an electronic automatic ignition”, that is, by piezo, so you do not need a lighter. Amazon sums up the operation like this: insert the cartridge, lock it, turn, grill.

The grate measures 34 × 25.5 cm. That is 867 cm²; we calculated this ourselves from the two edge dimensions of the grate, not from the outer dimensions. Below it sits the drip tray, which Angel Domäne also calls the grease tray.

For the appliance, the retailer gives 43 × 26 × 11.5 cm and 3.68 kg. Whether the dimension applies with or without the case remains open on the product page. In the photo, the black case stands behind the grill; it has a carrying handle and is visibly larger than the housing. Angel Domäne describes it as a sturdy plastic case, and it is part of the delivery. The cartridges are not.

In detail: open flame under the grid grate

On the Evergrill, the food lies on a grid directly above the burner bars. The heat arrives in two ways: as radiation from the flame and as hot exhaust gas that rises and passes the meat. A lid that holds this heat in is not visible on the product photo and is not listed in the delivery contents either. The case is a transport container, not a lid. Whatever escapes upward through the grid is therefore lost.

A few things follow from this. Everything cooks from below, and the top of a thick piece gets hardly any heat. Indirect grilling, that is, beside the flame with the hood closed, is not possible with a single burner field and no lid. And open burners are generally sensitive to wind, because every gust pushes the hot gases sideways. On the beach or at the water’s edge this has a stronger effect than in a sheltered back yard.

We worked out two figures. First, the output per area: 2,300 W over 867 cm² is around 2.65 W per square centimetre. That is an average; above a bar it is hotter than at the edge of the grate. Second, consumption and output fit together. Butane has a calorific value of around 49.5 MJ per kilogram, which is about 13.7 kWh. At 168 g per hour that gives around 2.3 kW. The nominal heat output therefore describes how much energy the gas delivers. How hot the grate gets is a second question, and it depends on distance, wind and grease on the grid.

Our assessment: the Evergrill is built for sausages, vegetable skewers, fish fillet, halloumi and thinly sliced meat. We would not entrust a thick rib-eye to it, because without a lid and without a known maximum temperature it is open whether the crust arrives before the inside overcooks.

How long does a cartridge last?

Around 80 minutes on full flame. That is our calculation from two figures from Angel Domäne: 168 g consumption per hour and 227 g content of the MSF-1A cartridge that the retailer includes in the set.

Exactly, it is 227 divided by 168, so 1.35 hours or 81 minutes. On a low flame the cartridge lasts longer; how much longer depends on the position of the control knob. For an afternoon by the water with several rounds on the grate, we would pack at least a second cartridge.

Cold shortens the calculation further. Butane boils at about minus 0.5 °C. If the cartridge sits around this temperature, the gas evaporates poorly, the pressure drops and the flame gets smaller. The effect is general physics and applies to every butane cartridge. If you sit by the canal at six in the morning in March, you should plan for it.

Only the MSF-1A type is named as a cartridge. Angel Domäne sells it itself; the single appliance comes without one. What the set with eight cartridges costs and what it contains is covered in the questions below.

Safety: three components and a missing manual

Angel Domäne and the Amazon bullet point agree on three safety components: a safety valve, an ignition protection and a mechanical lock for the gas cartridge. On the retailer’s product page, the first point reads “Piezo-Zündung mit Sicherheitsventil” (piezo ignition with safety valve).

One term calls for caution. Many buyers read “ignition protection” as a flame failure device, that is, a thermocouple that shuts off the gas supply when the flame goes out. Whether the Evergrill has something like this or whether the term means something else, such as protection against overpressure in the cartridge, cannot be read from the information. We would not rely on it and would never leave the grill burning unattended.

We found no operating instructions on the product page or in the Angel Domäne download area. The only document there is the safety data sheet for the cartridge. That means everything we would otherwise reproduce word for word is missing: set-up, distances, cartridge change, leak check. The Amazon sentence that the Evergrill offers “maximum safety when operated outdoors” is advertising copy, not a set-up rule. Our advice: before the first ignition, read the documents that are in the box. If no manual is included, request it from e.webstores.

For the cartridge itself, the situation is clearer. The set page says it is flammable and under pressure, and that you should protect it from direct sunlight and temperatures above 50 °C. A car boot in July can reach this limit; we would leave neither the grill with an inserted cartridge nor spare cartridges there.

What Angel Domäne leaves open

Collected here so that it does not appear in every paragraph: we found these points in no source on the Evergrill. The number of burner bars, the material of the housing, grate and drip tray, a coating on the grate, the maximum temperature at the grate and a heat-up time. Also operating pressure, nozzle size and a test or CE identification number under the Gas Appliances Regulation, minimum distances to combustible materials, and an explicit statement on balcony, tent, caravan or indoor use. An adapter for a large gas bottle does not appear either, nor do spare parts, warranty terms, country of origin or the year of market launch. On cleaning (dishwasher, cleaning agent, wire brush) we found nothing either.

Cleaning and transport

According to Angel Domäne, the grate and drip tray can be removed and cleaned after use. Because the material of the grate is unknown, a wire brush would be too risky for us. We have collected general steps in the guide cleaning a gas grill; with an unknown grate material, we would start with washing-up liquid, warm water and a soft sponge.

For the way back, everything goes in the case, with the cartridge removed beforehand in our view. Grease still standing in the tray would otherwise run into the case.

Three alternatives from our catalogue

The prices are the guide values from our price box and they change; the rating is our editorial assessment from the data comparison.

On price, HeinaTond (approx. €58) and Evergrill (approx. €60) are close together. The Campingaz Party Grill 400 R is at approx. €89.76, but it hangs on a bottle instead of a cartridge. The biggest gap is to the JONES Jr. at approx. €126.75: more than a third more output and a lid, but a grate that, at 532 cm², is much smaller than the 867 cm² of the Evergrill.

When the Evergrill fits and when another grill does

Number of people first. Angel Domäne writes that you can grill “for several people” on the grate, with no number given. In our assessment the area is enough for two, and with sausages and skewers for three if you grill in rounds. For a family of four who want to eat at the same time, it is too tight.

Then the place. According to the retailer, the Evergrill is built for campsites, parks, the beach on the North Sea and Baltic Sea, and angling waters, that is, for places without a power socket. If you mainly want to grill on a balcony, you are buying an appliance that has no approval from the retailer, and you should first read your tenancy agreement and house rules.

If you want more heat, you end up with the Jones Jr., because it is the only one of the four to combine a stainless steel burner with 3.2 kW and a lid. If you already have a gas bottle on a permanent pitch and also want to boil water or use a wok, you are better served by the Party Grill 400 R. And if you are torn between Evergrill and HeinaTond, you decide not on price but on the baking tray.

We would not buy the Evergrill to use it in a motorhome or tent porch: an open cartridge grill does not belong in enclosed spaces. Nor would we buy it for someone who wants to read instructions with distances and safety rules before buying.
