For the past three years we have been asking the Bull NZ Team for a premium Drop in benchtop BBQ … and boy, have they delivered! 🔥
Our latest display kitchen is now installed at the Trendz Fires showroom, 10 Mount Eden Road, Grafton, bringing together some of the best products and suppliers we work with in one seriously impressive outdoor kitchen.
Taking center stage is something pretty special — the brand-new Bull Tasman X drop in BBQ , and the unit you’re looking at is currently the only unit in the world.
At 1 meter wide, the Tasman X takes Bull’s proven burner technology and puts it into a true drop-in BBQ designed purely for outdoor kitchens. It features interchangeable cooking plates for searing and grilling, along with a clever grease management system accessed through a smart hatch beside the controls — no removing the grills and no annoying grease tray to pull out from underneath.
We’ve been talking with the team for years about producing a purpose-built drop-in BBQ like this, and they’ve absolutely nailed it. Production units are expected to land in New Zealand later this year.
Sitting alongside it is the impressive Trendz T1600 firebox, creating the centerpiece and allowing the kitchen and fire to become one continuous feature.
For the benchtop we went with Neolith Calacatta Silk, built up to a substantial 60mm mitred edge and waterfalling down both ends of the kitchen. A massive thank you to for supplying the porcelain for this display, and to for the fabrication and workmanship that brought it all together.
The cabinetry is finished with our silicone timber slatted fronts, bringing the warmth and texture of timber into the design while being completely suited to an outdoor environment.
Paired with the crisp Calacatta porcelain, stainless steel Tasman X and the T1600 firebox, we reckon this one has come together beautifully.
If you want to see this impressive kitchen , head into the Trendz Fires showroom at 10 Mount Eden Road, Grafton, Auckland.
