The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel combines a full-size charcoal kettle grill and a full-size gas grill in one cooking appliance. The gas side provides 4,258 cm² of cooking space with Flare-Free Technology for weeknight meals and fast cooking. The charcoal side provides 2,561 cm² of kettle grilling for smoke flavour and traditional charcoal cooking. Both sides are full-size, functional cooking surfaces, not compromised half-solutions.

Flare-Free Technology captures and removes 75% of grease while cooking to eliminate flare-ups, hot spots and burnt or overcooked food. Double stacked cooking grates offer double the heat retention.

The charcoal kettle has a hinged lid that enables hands-free cooking, a charcoal lighting burner that speeds up charcoal ignition to get you cooking faster, and a hideaway ash catcher that captures ash with no mess on the charcoal burner.

Coleman rates the power output at 46.2 MJ/h. Use the gas side when you want convenience and speed. Use the charcoal side when you want smoke flavour and traditional grilling. Use both sides simultaneously when cooking for large groups.

The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel is compatible with the Coleman Outdoor Modular System, and Coleman offers it in outdoor kitchen packages with storage, fridge, and sink modules. If you want to build a complete outdoor kitchen around a dual fuel cooking system, this compatibility gives you that option.

As an authorised Coleman stockist, we have the Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel BBQ on display at our Wetherill Park showroom. Come in and we will show you how both sides work, demonstrate the charcoal lighting burner, and discuss charcoal types and setup options.

Key Features

Two complete cooking systems in one BBQ The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel combines a full-size gas grill and a full-size charcoal kettle in a single unit. Both sides are complete, functional cooking surfaces, not compromised half-sizes.

Gas side: 4,258 cm² cooking space with Flare-Free Technology. Use for weeknight meals, fast cooking, or when you want precise temperature control.

Charcoal side: 2,561 cm² kettle with a charcoal lighting burner and hinged lid. Use for smoke flavour, traditional charcoal grilling, or low-and-slow cooking.

You can use either side independently or run both sides simultaneously when cooking for large groups. Coleman rates the power output at 46.2 MJ/h.

Gas side: Flare-Free Technology eliminates flare-ups Flare-Free Technology captures and removes 75% of grease while cooking to eliminate flare-ups, hot spots and burnt or overcooked food.

Food cooks more evenly because the flame is not being interrupted by burning grease, and the burner box stays cleaner. The double stacked cooking grates also offer double the heat retention.

Gas side: 4,258 cm² cooking space The gas side provides 4,258 cm² of cooking space, which is large enough to cook for 4-6 people.

Charcoal side: 2,561 cm² kettle with charcoal lighting burner The charcoal side is a full-size charcoal kettle grill providing 2,561 cm² of cooking space, large enough to cook for 4-6 people.

The charcoal lighting burner speeds up charcoal ignition to get you cooking faster. Place charcoal in the kettle, turn on the charcoal lighting burner, and let it bring the charcoal up to temperature.

The charcoal lighting burner means you don't need lighter fluid, fire starters, or charcoal chimneys. Once the charcoal is lit, turn off the charcoal lighting burner and cook over charcoal as you would on any kettle grill. The hideaway ash catcher captures ash with no mess on the charcoal burner.

Charcoal side: hinged lid for hands-free cooking The hinged lid on the charcoal kettle enables hands-free cooking. It provides hands-free access to the cooking surface for adding food, flipping meat, or adjusting charcoal.

Traditional kettle lids lift completely off and require a separate surface to rest on, which is inconvenient during cooking. The hinged lid on the Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel stays attached to the BBQ and swings open for access.

Foldable side shelves on both sides The foldable side shelves provide convenient workspace on both sides during cooking. The BBQ measures 186 cm long with the shelves up and 160.8 cm long with the shelves down.

Compatible with Coleman Outdoor Modular System Coleman offers the Revolution Dual Fuel in outdoor kitchen packages with storage, fridge, and sink modules. Multiple modules can be connected to create a continuous outdoor kitchen layout.

If you want to add storage, refrigeration, or running water to your dual fuel BBQ setup, the modular compatibility gives you that option without replacing the entire BBQ.

Black matte finish The Black Matte finish is a high-quality matte sandy finish with a touch of shiny black and a slightly dimpled surface texture. The finish creates a modern blackout appearance that resists fingerprints and is easier to maintain than gloss finishes. The matte surface is durable and weather-resistant.

5-year warranty The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel BBQ is backed by Coleman's 5-year warranty.

Gas vs Charcoal: When to Use Each Side

Use the gas side when you want:

• Fast cooking (ready to cook in 5-10 minutes)
• Precise temperature control (adjustable burner knobs)
• Clean, easy operation (no ash, no lighter fluid)
• Weeknight meals or quick dinners
• Cooking for smaller groups (4-6 people)

Use the charcoal side when you want:

• Smoke flavour and traditional charcoal taste
• High-heat searing (charcoal reaches higher temperatures than gas)
• Low-and-slow cooking (smoking, roasting)
• Traditional kettle grilling experience
• Cooking for guests who appreciate charcoal flavour

Use both sides simultaneously when:

• Cooking for large groups (8-12+ people)
• You want different cooking methods at once (gas for vegetables, charcoal for meat)
• You need maximum cooking capacity

The Dual Fuel design lets you choose the appropriate cooking method for each meal rather than being locked into gas-only or charcoal-only cooking.

Charcoal Lighting Burner Explained

Traditional charcoal lighting methods have drawbacks:

Lighter fluid: Imparts chemical taste to food, creates large flames, environmentally harmful, requires purchasing and storing flammable liquid.

Charcoal chimney: Requires 20-30 minutes to light charcoal, requires fire starters or newspaper, takes up storage space, can tip over and create safety hazards.

Electric charcoal starter: Requires outdoor power outlet, takes 15-20 minutes, occupies storage space.

The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel solves this with a charcoal lighting burner, which speeds up charcoal ignition to get you cooking faster. When you want to light charcoal:

1. Place charcoal in the kettle
2. Turn on the charcoal lighting burner
3. The burner heats the charcoal until it ignites
4. Turn off the charcoal lighting burner
5. Cook over charcoal as normal

The charcoal lighting burner means you don't need lighter fluid, fire starters, or chimneys. Once the charcoal is lit, turn the burner off and cook entirely over charcoal.

What Type of Charcoal Should I Use?

The charcoal side works with any type of charcoal: lump charcoal, briquettes, or specialty charcoal.

Lump charcoal:

• Burns hotter and faster than briquettes
• Produces less ash
• Lights faster
• Natural wood, no additives
• Irregular pieces
• We stock Argie Grillz Premium Argentinian Lumpwood Charcoal made from 100% Quebracho Blanco hardwood

Briquettes:

• Burns longer and more evenly than lump charcoal
• Produces more ash
• Consistent size and shape
• May contain binders or additives
• Lower cost per kg than lump charcoal

Most users prefer lump charcoal for high-heat grilling and briquettes for low-and-slow smoking. The choice depends on your cooking method and personal preference.

Assembly and Setup

The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel BBQ arrives flat-packed and requires assembly. We can assemble it for you for a fee.

Assembly involves attaching the hoods, connecting the gas burners and charcoal lighting burner, mounting the charcoal kettle, and installing the side shelves. The process is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic tools and following instructions, but you will need assistance to move and position the BBQ after assembly.

After assembly, you will need to connect a ULPG gas bottle (not included) to the BBQ using a standard regulator and hose.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use both sides at the same time?

Yes. You can run the gas side and charcoal side simultaneously. This is useful when cooking for large groups or when you want different cooking methods at once (for example, gas for vegetables and charcoal for meat).

Do I need two gas bottles?

No. One gas bottle connects to the BBQ and supplies the gas side and the charcoal lighting burner. The charcoal lighting burner only runs while you light the charcoal, so gas consumption is minimal.

Does the charcoal side work without the charcoal lighting burner?

Yes. You can light charcoal using traditional methods (charcoal chimney or fire starters) if you prefer. The charcoal lighting burner simply speeds up charcoal ignition to get you cooking faster.

What type of charcoal should I use?

The charcoal side works with any type of charcoal: lump charcoal, briquettes, or specialty charcoal. We recommend Argie Grillz Premium Argentinian Lumpwood Charcoal for high-quality lump charcoal, or standard briquettes for longer, even burns.

How quickly does charcoal light with the charcoal lighting burner?

Coleman says the charcoal lighting burner speeds up charcoal ignition to get you cooking faster. It doesn't publish a lighting time.

Does this BBQ come with a gas bottle or charcoal?

No. The gas bottle and charcoal are not included. You will need to purchase a ULPG gas bottle and charcoal separately.

Can I convert the gas side to natural gas?

Coleman lists the gas type for this BBQ as ULPG (bottled gas) and doesn't list a natural gas conversion on its product page. Talk to us before buying if you need natural gas.

What modules can I attach to this BBQ?

The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel is compatible with the Coleman Outdoor Modular System. Coleman offers it in outdoor kitchen packages with storage (no drawer), fridge, and sink modules.

Does this BBQ come with a cover?

No. A cover is not included. We recommend the Coleman Premium BBQ Cover (Extra Large) for this dual fuel model.

What is the difference between Black Matte and Black Gloss finishes?

Black Matte is a high-quality matte sandy finish with a touch of shiny black and a slightly dimpled surface texture. It creates a modern blackout appearance and resists fingerprints. Black Gloss is a shiny, polished finish with a subtle grey dimpled texture. Both finishes are durable and weather-resistant. The choice is purely aesthetic.

Is this BBQ on display at your showroom?

Yes. The Coleman Revolution Dual Fuel BBQ (Black Matte) is on display at our Wetherill Park showroom.
