You might be wondering exactly what a fire bowl is. Basically, it’s a large bowl used to light and contain a fire. They have gained in popularity over the last few years, as people really love the beauty and warmth they provide. Fire pits are often found at higher-end restaurants or hotels. When used with clean-burning gel fuel, they produce a crisp and controlled flame that greatly enhances the ambiance of an outdoor patio.

One thing many people are not aware of is that fire bowls can be used for grilling food as well. Some models such as the Landmann Big Sky come with a removable grate that can be set over the flame. If you like to barbecue food, a fire bowl makes a unique choice of grill. It’s an alternative to a portable barbecue that is designed mainly for function.

Fire bowls can use different fuels depending on the bowl. They come in models designed to use wood, charcoal, or gel fuel. When used with wood, they come with a steel mesh cover that protects from ash and sparks.
