Best Gas Grill of 2022

Now that football season is officially back, your grill might be getting a little more use than usual. And that means it may be time for an upgrade. There are all kinds of different grills you can choose from -- including pellet grills, portable grills and even traditional charcoal grills. However, the classic gas grill continues to reign supreme when it comes to backyard cooking. 

The best gas grills are simple to use, making them perfect for newbies. They ignite fast and heat up quickly. Most have plenty of room to fix a feast for the entire family, too. If you're worried about limited backyard space, it's not hard to track down a compact model to fuel your outdoor cooking adventures. Some of today's best gas grills also come jam-packed with nifty extras, from side burners to special sear stations to built-in lighting for evening cooking.

So if you're on the hunt for a quality gas grill, you're in luck. We put a bunch of the bestselling models through their paces by using them to cook up burgers, whole chickens, ribs and more. When all the smoke cleared, we picked our favorites. This list is updated periodically.

Weber Genesis II E-335

Best overall

This Weber Genesis II liquid propane gas grill is pricey. We won't skip over that. However, if you're serious about grilling and ready to make an investment in your outdoor kitchen, this Weber grill is absolutely a top choice with ample grilling area and cooking grid dimensions.

This Weber model comes with plenty of high-performance specs. With 513 square inches of primary cooking space powered by 39,000 BTUs, plus a fold-down warming rack, a 12,000-BTU side burner and stainless steel rod cooking grates for heat retention, you'll never want for cooking area space. Two cabinet doors hide a two-shelf storage area below the grill for utensils and supplies. That does mean the propane tank is stored outside the grill, but the provided hanging fuel gauge and easy access felt like a bonus more than an eyesore.

The Genesis II E-335 is also one of Weber's iGrill 3 compatible models, along with other Genesis II models and the Spirit II line. This $121 accessory plugs into the front of the grill and houses up to four Bluetooth temperature probes. You can monitor the temperature probes via a companion app for iOS and Android, so you keep an eye on what's happening in your cooking area from a distance. 

In our testing, the Genesis II E-335 liquid propane grill turned out seared burgers with a slightly pink center, crispy chicken skin with juicy meat and fall-off-the-bone ribs. Combine that great grilling performance with Weber's 10-year warranty on all grill parts, and this propane gas grill with cast iron grate will have you set for years to come, even with heavy use.

Char-Broil Commercial 3-Burner

Best midrange model

Char-Broil's three-burner stainless steel model comes in at almost half the price of the Weber model above. At $550, you'll get a liquid propane and natural gas grill that can handle most cooking challenges with ease. 

Char-Broil uses what it calls Tru-Infrared, a set of perforated emitter plates that separate food from flame to evenly distribute heat and reduce flare-ups. There were definitely fewer flare-ups compared with other models in our testing, but you won't be able to see the flame when you're lighting the grill or adjusting the temperature, so keep that in mind.

You'll get less power than the Weber at 25,500 BTUs over 420 square inches of primary cooking area space, and there aren't any smart grilling features for remote monitoring. This Char-Broil model does have a side burner as well as tank storage behind two cabinet doors. Like the Weber, it comes with a 10-year warranty. 

Food cooked on our Char-Broil test unit was good, though slightly less crispy and seared than the Weber. If you're looking to stay close to $500, this outdoor grill with stainless steel burner offers the best balance of features and performance among the models we've tested.

Char-Griller E3072 3-Burner

Best budget model

No one ever said you have to spend hundreds of dollars to be happy with your barbecue grill. Char-Griller's E3072 proves it. This model brings 40,800 BTU of power over a generous 438 square inches of cooking space, not counting a 12,000-BTU side burner.  

What we noticed most in testing this grill is how quickly it got up to temperature compared with other models. It held that heat well, too. Unfortunately, that became a hindrance in our testing. Burgers and chickens were too charred on the outside, thanks to the hot cast-iron cooking grate. If you do purchase this model, keep that in mind and start out with less heat. Ribs were better, perhaps owing to the two smokestacks designed for even low and slow cooking.

There's no storage cabinet on this model. The propane tank sits behind a decorative front panel. That's an aesthetically pleasing compromise, but reaching through the side bars and around the panel to open and close the tank was frustratingly difficult. Despite those annoyances, this barbecue grill offers plenty of practicality and power for a very reasonable price.

Weber Genesis EPX-335 Smart Gas Grill

Best equipped model

If you're willing to spend a little more for extra features than the Weber Genesis EPX-335 is what you seek. Newly redesigned for 2022, this propane grill offers a large 787 square inches of cooking space. It also boasts three main burners rated at 39,000 BTU, a 13,000 BTU sear burner and a 12,000 BTU side burner. 

We like how two of the main burners and the sear burner can form a special sear zone on command. And those who tend to cook after dark will appreciate the built-in LED lighting system. It illuminates the cooking area automatically when you pop open the hood.

Thanks to on-board Weber Connect support, this grill has smart abilities too. Linked to your home's Wi-Fi network you can use the Weber Connect app to monitor grill status from your phone. That includes internal grill temperature plus real-time readings from up to two meat probes.

During our testing, the Genesis EPX-335 seared burgers well with just a hint of pinkness at their centers. Whole chicken came out nicely cooked as well: The skin was crispy with both white and dark meat left tender and juicy. 

The only hiccup we ran into was while cooking pork ribs low and slow. According to the grill's LED screen, heat levels during the cook were parked with a 10-degree range of 225 F. Our own thermocouples though pegged temperatures at grill level at about 45 degrees cooler. As a result our ribs took longer than expected: 6 hours, 30 minutes to finish.

Other grills we've tested


The CNET Smart Home editors have been cooking and serving up grill data for a few years now. In addition to the gas barbecue models above, here are the other gas grills we've tested. This list doesn't include the many models we've tested over the years that are no longer available for purchase.

How we test gas grills

To determine the best gas grill and get a feel for how these grills perform in a variety of cooking scenarios, we perform three tests. Based on different meats, methods and heat settings, these tests show us how efficiently and evenly a grill does (or doesn't) cook.

Ribs

Our first test is ribs. It's an anecdotal round, so there isn't a connected thermometer set or software capturing specific data. We preheat each grill on high for 10 minutes before turning it down to low, indirect heat. Depending on the grill size, that means turning one or two burners off completely.

We remove the outer membrane on a rack of pork back ribs and season it with an all-purpose rub we use for ribs and chicken. Then, the ribs are placed on the grates for at least three hours with the lid closed the entire time. 

Rib testing takes three hours on low, indirect heat.

Chris Monroe/CNET

Rib enthusiasts may not agree with this relatively short and smoke-free cooking method, but it allows us to see just how well a regular propane gas grill can cook low and slow. If time allows we continue cooking until the ribs are completely done and make note of the total cook time.

Chicken

To test the grill with a midrange cook time and medium heat settings, we grill a whole chicken. We preheat the grill on high for 10 minutes, then turn the heat down to medium and turn off burners to create an indirect heat environment.

Once we've trimmed and seasoned the bird, we place it in a roasting pan and insert one temperature probe into each chicken breast, for a total of two probes per chicken (this is an important step -- even if the grill has a built-in thermometer -- because undercooked chicken is no good for anyone). To keep our results as fair as possible, all the chickens are as close as possible to 5.5 pounds.

Whole chickens are cooked on indirect, medium heat until both breasts reach 165 degrees F.

Chris Monroe/CNET

Those temperature probes are connected to a data logger and laptop with software that records the internal temperature of each chicken breast every two seconds. Each chicken cooks until the temperature in both breasts reaches a food-safe 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grilled chicken should have a crispy skin and meat that is cooked through fully but not dry. We perform this test in three rounds, giving us a solid average cooking time for each grill.

Burgers

Burgers are our final test for our grill reviews. We measure out 5.3 ounces of 80/20 ground beef and press them into uniform patties. Those patties go into a grill basket and we insert a temperature probe into the center of each patty at a 45-degree angle.

With the grill preheated for 10 minutes on high, the basket goes onto the grill. After six minutes of cooking, we flip the basket and monitor internal temperature. Once the last burger in the basket reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit, the batch is finished. A good burger in this test is one that has both a nice outside char and a slightly pink center.

Burgers go on the grill over direct, high heat.  

Brian Bennett/CNET

Burger testing points out any hot spots across the grill's cooking surface if one burger consistently reaches 145 F before the others in every round.

An average 15- or 20-degree difference across the quickest and slowest patties in a batch was the norm in our testing. Red flags are raised when we begin to see differences in the 30- to 40-degree range. 

A closer look at specs

Comparing these gas grills isn't all apples to apples. With different grill sizes, cooking grates and BTU levels, a difference in performance is expected in each individual outdoor gas grill. Still, there are some observations to be made.

One thing our test data highlights is how quickly a grill can cook on its own medium or high setting. That doesn't mean each grill is set to the same preheated temperature. It simply means we turned the knobs to what each grill indicated was medium heat.

The chart below compares each grill's average cooking time for chicken and burgers over three identical tests. We run the clock until the last burger reaches 145˚F and the lowest chicken breast reaches 165˚F.

Average cooking times


Weber Char-Griller Char-Broil Napoleon Dyna-Glo
Chicken 78 min 81 min 59 min 95 min 46 min
Burgers 11 min 9 min 13 min 15 min 8 min

If speed isn't your deciding factor, don't fear. There are other characteristics you can compare to choose the grill that's right for you.

Exactly which one is that? It depends on your cooking style. If you're cooking for large groups frequently, you'll need a grill with a large primary cooking surface, a warming rack and a side burner. Some of you might also have strong feelings about the cooking grates -- you need stainless steel, or cast-iron grates, or porcelain-coated grates, or even porcelain-coated cast iron.

Look carefully at each description to be sure you get what you're looking for. If you just plan to use your grill for flipping a few burgers occasionally, stick with a less expensive or smaller gas grill model. And of course, if you're looking for a portable gas grill or an indoor grill, these won't be right for you.

Once you've picked out the best gas grill for you, don't forget accessories. You'll want to look at grill covers and pick up grilling tools like a grill brush, a thermometer to check for food-safe temperatures and liners for the drip tray. Take a look at this chart to compare size, power, warranty and more.

How to choose a gas grill

All the best restaurants in the world prepare meat on gas grills. Firstly, these devices are ready to work within five minutes after switching on. Secondly, they are equipped with three or more burners, so they have at least three temperature zones. In a hot area, you can make fish or meat, in a cold area, keep the finished pieces so that they do not cool down, and the middle zone is great for vegetables. Finally, gas grills are very easy to clean. So why not buy yourself one of these?

Questions to ask yourself before buying a gas grill

1. Do I need a smooth or ribbed grilling surface?

The first option is best for seafood, fish, poultry and lean meats. A thin film of fat forms on the bottom of a smooth grill after a few minutes of cooking. It protects products from burning, keeps them juicy and fresh. At the same time, large pieces of fatty meat are more convenient to fry on a corrugated grill. So excess fat comes out of them, and a branded line pattern appears on the outside. Get beautiful baked steaks.

If you are interested in both options, you can find devices with two surfaces at once on the market. True, they cost more.

2. What will I cook with?

Some gas grills can only run on LPG, and some only work on methane. At the same time, there are models that cook on any raw material. You need to understand in advance which of the options in your conditions is the most attractive - and make sure that the selected grill supports it.

3. What is more important to me - price or reliability?

Grill grates are available in steel or cast iron. The former are easier to maintain and more durable, but the latter are quite profitable in terms of economy. They cost less money and keep warm longer.

4. What additional features do I need?

To make the use of the appliance more convenient and safer, some grills are equipped with protection and auto-ignition functions. If the burner goes out, the gas supply to it will stop automatically, so you don't have to worry about safety. Well, auto-ignition makes our life a little more comfortable. A model with it is worth taking if you are going to use the grill more than once a week.

What do we look at first when choosing

When buying a gas grill, pay attention to the warranty period from the manufacturer. This can save you money: you won’t have to buy additional parts later that, in fact, should never have broken. Branded warranty for quality products is five to ten years, and some companies even offer a lifetime repair or replacement of their devices. Practice shows that here the overpayment "for the brand" almost always justifies itself.

Pay attention to the burner. It should be proportional to the dimensions of the device. Some manufacturers are trying to attract buyers by creating a large, imposing metal casing. It seems as if in it, if necessary, you can bake an elephant. However, it happens that one burner is placed there, and even then a small one. And this means that your grill will be full of cold spots, which in fact will only harm the dish. Remember: in order to cook correctly and tasty, the size of the grill is not at all the main thing. The number and power of burners is also not a panacea. It is important that the heat is evenly distributed inside the case. This is where the fire extinguisher comes in handy. A large grill is required only when a lot of guests gather for a holiday.

Another important point is the design and location of the flame arresters in the grill. These are large metal plates that prevent excess juices, fat and salt from getting into the burner and ruining the fire. The formation of various "dirt" in the burner is one of the main, most common causes of grill malfunctions. Do you want to buy a reliable device? Then make sure that the flame arresters cover the entire burner from above, and are not located somewhere on the side of it, as in some models. Also make sure that these "fire tamers" do not have rust marks.

If you are going to professionally operate your grill, be sure to check that this model has sides and a drip tray to collect fat. Well, if she also has a drain tap. This will make using the device much easier and save you time on washing and cleaning.

The construction of gas grills is generally very strong. Problems with it almost never arise. High-quality devices are distinguished by polished welds and AISI 304 stainless steel casings. However, if you live near the coast or you just have a very important climate and you want to work outdoors, even such protection will not save. It will only delay the inevitable, cause the rust to set in three or four years later. This is where a good guarantee comes in handy. In general, in conditions of high humidity, copper and aluminum devices perform best.

Materials

If you are concerned about the appearance of your grill, make sure the lid is double-walled when purchasing a stainless steel appliance. The outer layer of her then just does not change its color.

It is important to know what the grill grates are made of. It can be porcelain-enamelled steel or cast iron. Many sellers say that you need to clean such grates while they are still hot. But in fact, porcelain at such moments is just especially fragile, it can crack! Left uncoated, the iron will quickly rust - and if you took the grill with a one-year warranty, you can forget about replacement or free repairs. It is clear that manufacturers need to somehow increase sales, but try not to let them do it at your expense.

It is desirable that the burners in the grill are made of stainless steel and can be adjusted independently of each other. The best material for their lids is porcelain coated steel. The control knobs on most appliances are made of plastic, there's nothing you can do about it, but at least make sure that they are continuously adjustable, and not just set to three positions - for "high", "medium" and "low" temperature. You will be full of situations when you want to reduce the fire just a little. You can't do this with three position switches.

If you are seriously concerned about choosing a gas grill, the photo selection in this article is not enough and you need to spend some more time studying the catalog or just call us and we will be happy to help you in this difficult task.

Gas grills are built-in, mobile and portable (portable). The former are used in restaurants, they are very expensive, so we do not consider them in our material. For an ordinary family and even a large company, mobile and portable structures are usually enough.

Appliances also differ in size, number of burners, power and materials. In order to choose the best grill, you need to decide whether you will go hiking with it or put it on your site.

FAQ

What are the main advantages of a gas grill?

The main advantage of a gas grill is the speed of heating and the ability to quickly adjust the heat. Special sensors will help to monitor the temperature. Most gas grills are ignited using a piezo ignition (one spark) or electric ignition (a lot of sparks at once), for more expensive models, adjacent burners ignite automatically. A gas grill is also good because you do not depend on weather conditions, do not carry coal with you and do not look for paper or twigs to light the grill. Some put gas grills on their balconies and roast meat to the envy of their neighbors all year round. Yes, open flames are prohibited by law. But there are constructions where there is no fire, which means there is no smoke, so only the smell of fried meat can give you away.

Which body and parts materials should I choose?

When choosing a gas grill, both the body material and the material from which the burners and grates are made are important.

The most common case is made of stainless steel, it is better to look at models with double walls. Ideally, in the “working area” there should be as few joints, fasteners and other hard-to-reach places as possible where fat can get, which you then have to wash off.

It is better to have stainless steel burners - they will last a long time, and they are easier to clean than others, although cast iron seems to be more reliable.

As for the grill grate, the thicker the bars, the better the meat will be baked, and the “pattern” will look more beautiful on it.
