A couple has been rushed to hospital with burns after a barbeque caught alight at a Bunnings sausage sizzle in Adelaide.
It's understood the husband was injured while pulling his wife to safety when the flames ignited around 12.30pm today.

Witnesses told 9News a 50 year-old woman volunteering behind the barbecue fainted, falling and knocking the gas bottle over causing it to catch alight.
"She fell on the floor, and next minute it went boom," witness Ernie Reichstein told 9News.
He said the flames were "reasonably big".
"They were hot too, very hot."
The woman was rushed to the Royal Adelaide Hospital with serious burns to her face.
Her husband who volunteers at the squadron was also taken to the hospital with minor burns.
The gazebo was completely destroyed and the snags on the barbecue were charred.
In a statement, Bunnings said staff and a customer acted quickly to contain the fire, using nearby extinguishers to contain the fire.
A nearby car was also damaged by the intensity of the flames.
