About Us
Established in 2013 Que Fresco is a family business whose mission is simply to provide the best in barbecue, enjoy barbecue cooking and not to destroy the planet. For that reason we are selective about the BBQ brands with whom we choose to work:
- Construction quality is paramount
- Cooking capability is of the highest standard
At Que Fresco we endeavour to work differently, we import and wholesale barbecues and smokers that are built to last and our range of wood chips is EU sourced, produced sustainably and solar dried.
We accept that not everything can be produced next door to where it will be consumed but if we're going to use the worlds resources then the last thing we need is for those precious raw materials to be returned to the Earth a few years later as rubbish. Moreover our desire is that the end consumer enjoys barbecuing for many years without having to repair or scrap and replace.
We try to work with independent family businesses that believe in the quality of the equipment that they produce. Working together recognise that affordability is important but we reject corporate profit, mass production and the continuous drive to make things cheaper.
- It's about quality of materials
- It's about lifetime manufacturing techniques
- It's about the environmental sustainability of our business and that of our partners
When you buy a Que Fresco represented brand, you'll always find that your equipment delivers superb cooking results and our consumables are not contributing to de-forestation or the destruction of natural habitats.
That said there is clearly an environmental cost to running our business. We monitor this on a regular basis and donate to Rewilding Britain to ensure that our business is in balance with the environment.
