Why Choose a Gas Grill?
Gas grills deliver convenience and performance that today's busy homeowners appreciate. With instant ignition and precise temperature control, you'll spend less time waiting and more time creating memorable meals. Unlike charcoal grilling, there's no ash cleanup or lengthy prep time, just turn the knob, press the igniter and you're ready to cook in minutes. This efficiency makes gas grills ideal for both quick weeknight dinners and elaborate weekend gatherings.
Propane Grills: Flexibility Meets Performance
Propane grills remain a highly popular choice for good reason. Their portability means you can position your grill anywhere in your outdoor space without being tethered to a gas line. Modern propane grills feature:
- Multiple burners for versatile cooking zones
- Built-in thermometers for precise temperature monitoring
- Durable stainless steel or porcelain-coated grates
- Side burners perfect for sauces and sides
- Storage cabinets that conceal propane tanks
Portable Propane Grills for Every Adventure
Don't let location limit your grilling ambitions. Portable propane grills bring the backyard BBQ experience wherever you roam. These compact units feature:
- Lightweight construction for easy transport
- Folding legs and locking lids for secure travel
- Quick-connect propane attachments
- Surprising cooking power despite their size
From beach picnics to mountain campsites, portable grills help to provide great grilled food wherever you may be. For those exploring low-and-slow cooking, propane smokers offer an accessible entry into smoking, maintaining consistent temperatures for hours without constant attention.
Natural Gas Grills for Permanent Setups
For homeowners seeking a permanent outdoor kitchen setup, natural gas grills offer unmatched convenience. Connected directly to your home's gas line, these grills provide endless fuel without tank changes. Natural gas burns cleaner than propane and typically costs less per BTU, making it an economical choice for frequent grillers.
What Size Gas Grill Do I Need?
Choosing the right size depends on your cooking needs and available space.
- Compact two-burner models work well for couples or small families, offering 300-400 square inches of cooking surface
- Three- and four-burner grills provide 400-600 square inches—enough space to prepare complete meals for larger gatherings
- Five- and six-burner models are made for serious entertainers and deliver restaurant-grade capacity with specialized cooking zones
Specialty Gas Cooking Options
The evolution of outdoor cooking has brought exciting options beyond traditional grills. Gas griddles and flat top grills have surged in popularity, offering smooth cooking surfaces perfect for breakfast foods, stir-fries and smash burgers. Gas grill and griddle combos provide ultimate versatility, letting you sear steaks on grates while cooking vegetables on the flat top.
