Protecting your Cadac barbecue from British weather isn't optional if you want it lasting more than a season or two. This 58cm weatherproof nylon cover fits snugly over both Carri Chef 50 and Braai range models, keeping rain, dust and UV damage at bay when your BBQ's stored in the garden, caravan awning or motorhome garage. The 2025 design features improved drawstring closures that actually stay tight, which matters when you're dealing with coastal winds or storing the unit outdoors long-term.
The nylon material strikes a proper balance between weight and protection. It's light enough to pack without taking up half your storage locker, yet tough enough to handle regular use throughout the camping season. UV resistance prevents that brittle, cracked look cheaper covers develop after six months in summer sun. Fits over the BBQ quickly without wrestling or stretching, and the drawstrings cinch down to stop it blowing off during overnight stops.
Worth noting that while this cover handles weather brilliantly, you'll still want to let your BBQ cool completely before covering it. The nylon won't melt like some synthetic covers, but trapping heat and moisture creates condensation that can affect your cooking surfaces over time. Storing the BBQ dry under this cover extends its life significantly compared to leaving it exposed, particularly important given Cadac's quality components and the investment you've made in a proper portable cooking system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Cadac cover fit my older Carri Chef model?
This cover is specifically designed for the Carri Chef 50 range, which has a 58cm diameter. Older Carri Chef models came in different sizes, so you need to measure your BBQ's diameter before ordering. The Carri Chef 2 and original Carri Chef models used smaller covers around 47cm diameter, while this 50 series cover accommodates the larger cooking surface introduced with newer models.
Can I leave this cover on my Cadac BBQ outdoors all year?
The UV and weather-resistant nylon handles year-round outdoor storage better than standard covers, but you'll get longer life from both cover and BBQ if stored under some shelter during winter months. The cover protects against rain and sun damage effectively, though British winters with constant damp and frost work harder on any outdoor equipment. If you must store outside permanently, check underneath periodically and wipe away any condensation to prevent moisture build-up on metal components.
Does the drawstring closure keep the cover secure in wind?
The 2025 design features improved drawstring closures that cinch tighter than previous versions, providing good security in normal windy conditions typical at UK campsites. For exposed coastal pitches or moorland sites with strong gusts, you might want additional security like bungee cords or storing the covered BBQ inside your awning or vehicle. The drawstrings work well for everyday protection and quick overnight stops where you need simple on-off access.
Which Cadac BBQ models does this cover fit?
This 58cm diameter cover fits all Cadac Carri Chef 50 models and the Braai range barbecues. This includes the Carri Chef 50 BBQ, Carri Chef 50 with pot stand, and equivalent Braai models that share the same 50cm cooking surface diameter. It won't fit the smaller Carri Chef 2 (47cm) or the larger Citi Chef models, which need different sized covers. The 58cm measurement refers to the overall diameter of the cover when fitted.
How do I clean and maintain this BBQ cover?
Wipe the nylon cover with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris between camping trips. For stubborn marks, mild soapy water works well, then rinse thoroughly and let it air dry completely before storing. Never put it in a washing machine as this damages the water-resistant coating and UV protection. Store the cover dry and loosely folded rather than tightly compressed, which helps maintain its shape and weatherproofing properties. Regular cleaning prevents dirt from embedding in the fabric and extends the cover's protective qualities.
