Ultimate outdoor dream kitchen for Auckland couple

When his shiny new $2500 Rinnai Ultimate Barbecue is delivered, the first item that prize winner Jim is going to cook on it is every good Kiwi bloke's dream meal - a nice, juicy slab of steak.

Jim and his wife Lynn are the winners of a competition at Remuera's The Gasman shop to win the ultimate outdoor kitchen - a six-burner stainless steel Rinnai barbecue which comes with a teppanyaki unit, something Jim is keen to try his hand at.

"We're not generally that lucky - in fact, I can't remember the last time we won anything this major, so of course we're thrilled."

Jim, a risk manager at an Auckland bank, and his wife entered the competition when they purchased a gas fireplace from The Gasman.

"I got the call while I was at work and Alan said 'how's your fire going'? He told me it was a customer satisfaction call. It was February at the time, so I told him it was still a bit hot to get a fire going - and then he asked if we had room on our deck for a new barbecue," says Jim.

The Gasman owner Robert Guthrie says he's pleased to be able to offer one of their customers a complete outdoor summer experience.

"The weather's still beautiful, so I think Jim and Lynn will enjoy their new barbecue for a while yet. It's been a great summer and what better way to top it off for a lovely couple than to have the ultimate kitchen tool for cooking outdoors for many more summers to come," says Guthrie.
