The Safari Chef 30 is a compact, versatile gas barbecue, perfect for travel and vacations. Weighing only 4.5 kg and equipped with four cooking surfaces—a pot stand, BBQ grid, flat grill plate, and a lid that can double up as a pot—this barbecue offers endless outdoor cooking options.
Both the BBQ grid and flat grill plate have a premium CADAC GreenGrill ceramic coating, providing a healthier way to cook. This coating is not only durable, but also eco-friendly and easy to clean. The integrated heat deflector, located on the underside of both the BBQ grid and flat grill plate, evenly distributes heat, ensuring perfectly cooked dishes – from grilled steaks to fried eggs.
The Safari Chef 30 features a removable fat pan that not only catches cooking residues, but also shields the burner from wind, enhancing flame stability in windy weather conditions. Cleaning is a breeze too—simply wipe down the fat pan with a soapy cloth for quick maintenance.
With foldable legs and a compact carry bag, the Safari Chef is easy to transport, making it perfect for camping trips or park cookouts. The legs are designed with convenient openings, allowing you to store the BBQ while keeping a QR connection attached, and adding an extra layer of convenience.
Whether you’re camping, picnicking, or enjoying a backyard BBQ, the Safari Chef 30 is the ultimate portable cooking solution.
The Safari Chef is available in two versions:• The LP Version (Low Pressure) works with a refillable gas bottle or a CADAC Power Pak, offering flexibility for longer cooking sessions.• The HP Version (High Pressure) operates directly on an EN417 gas cartridge, ideal for those who need a quick and compact solution with a smaller fuel source.
In 2025, the Safari Chef 30 received an upgrade. The new Safari Chef 30 is even more compact for storage than the old version. The design of the control knob, among other things, has been adjusted so that the burner box folds over the unit when storing it. This makes the Safari Chef 30 (2025) even more compact and easier to store.
Additionally, the legs now feature cut-outs, allowing you to leave the Quick Release coupling attached when the barbecue is not in use and being stored. The Quick Release coupling fits perfectly through the holes. Therefore, the legs can also be folded with the Quick Release.
The burner has been improved for a more stable flame. The piezo ignition is now integrated into the burner, offering better protection and easier ignition.
CADAC ThermoGrill® causes an even heat distribution, quick heat up time and less gas consumption.

Most of our cooking surfaces are supplied with a ‘CADAC GreenGrill coating’. This ceramic coating is made from organic materials and doesn’t contain any toxic substances.
The CADAC GreenGrill is much more durable and harder than normal non-stick coating. It resists higher temperatures, divides the heat better and holds this heat, so less gas is used while grilling.
Cooking tops are very easy to clean with some water and detergent.
