Let's Answer Your Questions

Why choose Social Grilling?

Why should I invest in an Angara Social Grilling Table?

With the advent of the internet and mobile phones, the age-old tradition of the family gathering around the dinner table for an evening meal has become passè.

Fortunately, with our grilling tables the entire family, and especially the kids, love to gather and enjoy immersive dining — together. Family dinners are more fun because the entire dining experience is interactive and everyone is a participant.

So if you value family interaction and bonding, then buying the Angara is actually investing in your family that you cannot afford not to make.

After all, Life is Better Together!™

What makes the Angara Social Grilling Table exceptional?

The Angara lets the host cook while staying seated at the table with guests, turning meal prep into part of the gathering rather than a separate chore. Multiple independently controlled burners give precise cooking control, the stainless-steel grates are dishwasher safe for easy cleanup, and optional wood covers convert the table into a standard dining surface when it's not in grilling mode. (See our video walkthrough on YouTube for a full demonstration.)

What are the best benefits of Angara Social Grilling Tables?

Brings the family together: The host finally gets to be part of the party sitting around the grill with family and friends instead of being stuck behind a traditional grill in a corner. Kids enjoy the experience of sitting with their parents and actively participate in an immersive grilling and dining experience. The sheer fun of a social grilling experience just can't be beat!

Easy cleaning for both the table and grates: The stainless steel cooking grates are conveniently sized allowing for easy removal and they can be washed in a dishwasher. The 18” X 9” cooking grates are made of Dishwasher Safe T316L Stainless Steel – The “L” stands for low carbon and this stainless steel is used in restaurant kitchens – because of its higher resistance to corrosion.

Better cooking control for different foods: You can cook 2-3 different types of food at different heat settings over multiple burners.

The table’s amazing flexibility: Placing the wood grill covers over the grates makes the grilling table a gorgeous modern outdoor dining table making it a very versatile outdoor dining furniture.

What is a high-quality but budget-friendly Korean BBQ grill table?

The Fireon is ibbq's high-quality, budget-friendly option in the lineup — built to the same standards as the rest of the line at a more accessible price point.

Is the propane tank enclosure sold separately?

The grill table’s purchase price does not include the matching Propane Gas Tank Enclosure, which is an optional unit. (Cost: $2,999 for the Angara table, built in matching powder-coated steel and Tigerwood; and for the Angara Maximus, the enclosure is built in matching stainless steel and Teak wood and is priced @ $3,999).

Do I have to pay sales tax?

If you live in the states of California or Delaware, you will be assessed the appropriate sales tax.

Can I purchase the Angara from a retail store?

Currently we have a limited number of retail stores carrying our unique social grilling tables and depending on which part of the country you are in, we may be able to refer you to a store near you.

Are the grill covers included in the price?

Yes, the grill covers are included with every table. These covers make it easy and convenient to use the Angara as a regular outdoor dining table. Upon removing the cover(s), the table is ready as an outdoor grill.

We also sell an all-weather canvas cover to help protect the table, and the matching benches, from the elements. To ensure that the Angara provides you years of trouble free service, we strongly recommend that you protect your investment with this cover.

Does the table come with benches?

No, the benches are optional because some people prefer to sit on chairs.

Technical Questions

Can the Angara run on natural gas instead of propane?

Yes. The Angara can be configured to run on natural gas when connected to a suitable outdoor natural gas line. If you plan to use natural gas, let us know when ordering and ibbq will make the necessary factory modifications at no additional charge.

How many gas grills in one table?

Depends on the table size. In our large 8-seater table, there are 3 gas grills and our midsize 6-seater table has 2. Since each grill is independently controlled, you can grill different foods on each and select the optimum heat for each.

What is the size of the cooking surface (grate)?

On the Angara, and depending on the table size, we offer a maximum of three cooking grates, each measuring 18"L x 9"W.

The Quadra comes with 4 isosceles triangle cooking grates, each measuring: 13.9" x 13.9" x 19.6"

Do you also sell the grill burner chassis by itself?

Absolutely! If you'd like to purchase the burner unit without the table—what we at ibbq lovingly call the grill chassis the 'boat' (because that's exactly what it reminds us of)—feel free to contact us for pricing details.

How many propane tanks are needed?

Only one tank is connected at a time. As to how long a full tank of propane will last: For our largest 3-burner model, a full tank of propane should provide at least 6 hours of grilling time with all 3 burners running on high.

How do the BTUs compare to other grills in the market?

In our Angara and Angara Maximus models, each burner produces 12,000 BTUs – providing the best searing heat. In comparison, many top-selling propane grills produce from 10,000 BTUs to 50,000 BTUs.

However, BTU numbers can be deceiving unless one calculates the value of BTUs per square inch of cooking surface. Here’s an example: Divide the main burner BTU total by the size of the total cooking surface (in square inches).

Therefore, for the Angara tables, each grill’s cooking surface is 18”X 9” or 162 square inches. And 15,000 BTUs / 162 = 92.5 BTUs per square inch, which is more than sufficient for grilling most foods and is at the top of the range for a high-end grill.

How easy or difficult is it to assemble the table?

For customers purchasing the Angara tables, assembling your grill table is quite easy. We provide instructions that make assembly a breeze. It will take you more time to unpack the table's parts than it will to assemble them! Our company’s sales reps are available at 1.800.937.4227 to assist you should you have questions during assembly.

For customers purchasing Angara Maximus tables, we include white glove shipping and assembly. We will deliver, unpack and assemble your Maximus table, we will show you how to operate your grill and before leaving we will also clean up all the packaging material so you can immediately fire up your Maximus barbie and have a party with your family and friends!

Is it easy to clean? How do you clean it?

Yes! Spills can easily be wiped clean with a damp cloth (wine and grease included). Since the tabletops are made of luxury exotic woods, we recommend to wipe off spills as they happen (don’t leave overnight).

The cooking grates are smaller than many traditional grills and therefore convenient to clean in your dishwasher! All our cooking grates are made in T316L Stainless Steel – the stainless steel used in high-end, professional restaurant kitchens, and therefore dishwasher safe.

Does the wood used in the Angara come from an endangered rainforest?

No, it does not. We only use sustainably forested lumber. Both the Teak and the Tiger wood used in our high-end contemporary patio furniture and barbecue grills are Lacey Act compliant. The Lacey Act is landmark US legislation that bans the use of illegally sourced wood products.

How many different sizes do the tables come in?

Our 2-grill model can easily accommodate between 6 and 8

guests, and our 3-grill table can easily seat between 8 and 12 guests! The 2 sizes are offered in both our classic Angara and also our top-of-the-line Angara Maximus lines. Our new Angara Quadra can comfortably accommodate 8 guests.

How is the fuel delivered to the grill? (both natural gas or liquid propane)

The gas line, whether natural gas or propane, snakes its way up one of the table’s legs and into the grill –– very clean and unobtrusive!

Is the propane tank stored under the table?

Only in the square shaped Quadra model, the propane tank fits under the table. For our standard Angara and Angara Maximus models, we offer a matching enclosure (optional) for the propane tank as well.

Does the grill maintain heat?

The secret is in the engineering and placement of the ceramic briquettes. Our unique briquettes absorb heat from the burners and then distribute it evenly making the grill both heat and energy efficient.

Ceramic briquettes are included with each table purchase.

General Questions

Is the grill table shown in British Vogue with Angelina Jolie and her kids made by ibbq?

Yes, the BBQ table shown in Angelina Jolie’s home in British Vogue is indeed the Angara Maximus Social Grilling table made by iBBQ.

Our policy is to give you the trade discount on your second order. However, upon receiving your second order, we will also retroactively credit you for your first order as well.

Can it be used as an outdoor dining table?

Absolutely. The burners have beautiful wood covers that match the wood of the table.

Can this table also keep me warm?

Yes, absolutely. On cool nights, the "boat" which houses the burner system (you can see it in the pictures –– it is the one that protrudes from under the table), radiates out just enough heat to keep you and your guests warm below the table. And of course our customers also use it as a warming table when they don't plan on grilling but want to sit outside to have a glass of wine. You will find that the Angara is a very conformable piece of outdoor furniture that will fit your need of the day extremely well!

Can this table be placed under a gazebo or pergola?

As long as the space is well ventilated it is fine. You cannot have a social grilling table in an enclosed area – it needs ventilation.

Can this table be used as an outdoor heater or fire pit table?

Heat from the grill also helps keep people warm. It can be used like an outdoor fire pit table for entertaining. It just won’t have tall flames, but will be comfortable on cool nights with cocktails.

How does the Angara grill table stand up to weather?

As Teak and Tigerwood are the top-quality woods for outdoor furniture, they stand up to the elements and are easily restored to their original beauty with a quick application of Teak oil two or three times a year. It is highly recommended you use the all-weather canvas cover that is available.

What can I cook on the Angara table?

Virtually anything you would cook on a grill or stove: Veggies, Shrimp, Chicken, Steaks. You can even buy a griddle designed for the Angara Table to make breakfasts like eggs, pancakes, and bacon.

Does iBBQ have a business affiliation with UK's Cole Henley barbecue table?

Yes, we do. Our founders purchased the original Cole Henley ibbq table back in 2014 for their London apartment and liked it so much that they bought out the company and moved production to the United States and renamed the table Angara.
