He has catered their bi-annual summer camp for more than a decade – grilling food for dozens of people at a time. He owns several different types of grills, including charcoal, smokers, gas and infrared models. Gas grills can be a big expense if you want to go for the biggest and most powerful unit with lots of burners and plenty of grill space. But if you're not catering for larger numbers, or cooking huge amounts on a regular basis, you may want to consider smaller options too. These can not only save you money up front but in longer term running costs and space saving too. READ NEXT: Take a look at our favourite garden parasols The best gas barbeques to buy in 2023 1.

The best gas barbeques to buy in 2023

However, not all grillers make gas grills their first choice. Jesse Johnson of the Utah BBQ Association is a pitmaster for a competitive BBQ team. At the time of publication, he owned 14 grills. He generally uses wood-burning grills because they create the Maillard reaction, which imparts more flavor to your meat. But he will use gas grills to create a reverse sear on steaks.

The most important point Lexerot stressed was, “If you’re going to get a gas grill that you plan on using regularly, get a sturdy grill with ample features, that's easy to use and will hold up over time." The only real downside to gas BBQs – and some diehard BBQers will tell you it’s a big one – is that you miss out on that traditional charred, smokey taste. Flavoured smoking woods and charcoals are rising in popularity for solid-fuel grills, and while you can buy smoker boxes to use with gas, they won’t work for every model and don’t add quite as much flavour.As well as being the undisputed king of personal grills, George Foreman has also put his name to a series of gas BBQs that are just as stylish and affordable as their smaller siblings. This model features three individual burners and an impressively spacious cooking area, allowing you to have up to ten portions on the go at once. There’s also an integrated thermometer, which lets you keep control of the temperature of each individual cooking zone. So whether you’re whipping up burgers, steaks, fish or veggie kebabs, you can ensure perfect temperatures throughout. Those who love it praise the number of things it can cook –“Homemade tortillas are excellent. Pizza is next level. Stir fry is a blast”– as well as its looks. Some find it difficult to clean, while others say it’s easy, so your mileage may vary, but the steel cooking surface does seem to have some hot spots. Please note some larger products are delivered to kerb-side (the street outside your home), it is at the drivers discretion if they can deliver the item to another location on the property. Versatile cooking–The enamelled lid and fire bowl makes it perfect for traditional direct cooking, with integrated charcoal dividers for indirect cooking and smoking.

Design-wise Cuisinart has done a superb job, with sensible grease management, integrated paper towel storage and a lid which further adds to the versatility of the CGG-999, and while it’s apparently not too kind on your gas bottle - and you’ll absolutely need to look after it if you want it to last - it’s a large and very flexible griddle. Might it even replace your traditional grill? That’s for you (and your love of direct heat and sear marks) to decide. For anyone who wants a barbecue that they can use pretty much out of the box, the Weber Traveler, you can fire up the burner 10 minutes after opening it up. It’s simple to use, and easy to clean. However, if you are an expert griller who likes to cook different foods at different temperatures,the single burner may not be for you - but we found it cooked a variety of foods very well all at the same temperature.

An integrated lid thermometer and air vents ensure that you have the perfect grilling temperature every time too. The thermometer control is a nice touch that will help you to avoid accidental charring, while reversible grill plates provide more flexibility in cooking techniques. All in all, this grill has some fantastic additions that will heighten the grilling experience, while being easy for beginners. There’s a lot to love about the Char-Broil Performance Series 4-Burner Gas Grill. It offers a large cooking space of 475 square inches, which is more than enough to hold 20 succulent burger patties at a time. All that covered, gas grills do vary in their lifetimes but many decent brands will offer you a good warranty or guarantee so you can expect at least that long. According to Watson's, the average American replaces their grill every three years. Yet the average lifespan of a grill is anywhere between five and 15 years. That gap is where the proper care and maintenance mentioned above can make all the difference. The key to being at the top of your grill game is achieving an even cooking pattern. This will help you to avoid meat that is charred on the outside, but raw inside. Some grills have features to promote even heat distribution, offering a much smoother cooking experience for those on chef duty.
