Michelin starred chef Galton Blackiston (pictured) was at Glee yesterday to promote the new Norfolk Grills range from Norfolk Leisure.

Norfolk born and bred, he has maintained his Michelin star for the past 22 years at Morston Hall in Norfolk, where he is owner and chef patron.

He says the quality of the entire range is impressive but reserves special praise for the Infinity gas BBQ grill, which he uses at Morton Hall. He says it cook as well as anything to be found in a kitchen. “The features and functionality make it a joy to use and the accuracy of the thermostat, which is important to a chef, is outstanding.” At SRP £1,399, it also offers impressive value for money at this quality level.

Galton also offered glowing words of praise for the top-end Absolute and Absolute Pro models in the range, in effect promising to turn an outdoor space into a premium kitchen.

The range is complemented by a full range of accessories, from the usual tools to burger presses, chicken roasters and grill mats.
