Need a Gas Grill Recommendation Login/Join

posted
I am ready to graduate from propane to a direct hook up to my gas line in my home.

I am your average griller - a few steaks or burgers, corn, etc. I don't need a lot of grill surface, or bells and whistles.

Want to keep this under $1,000, and really want to be 600-700 if possible.

Thoughts?

Napoleon!
And get their charcoal trays so you can cook that way too if time allows.

Another vote for Weber Genesis. I wish I had spent the money on a Weber years ago instead of investing in the disposable grills I have had.

Weber all day long, unless you can afford a Napoleon.

Weber. Get the one specifically setup for natural gas. They have different regulator.

Also remember you will get slightly less heat out of Gas vs Propane due to less BTUs. So you will lose ~ 25-50° in whatever you choose. You should also be able to get orifice or regulator kit from manufacturer, and not have to buy a NG grill.

In case you were still undecided, Weber Genesis with the appropriate orifice kit. I'd go with a painted version as I have heard the stainless ones can develop some rust spots over time.

The paint and chrome seem to hold up well, unless you have a neighbor who lets their teacup mutt roam free to piss on it.

There is some pee streaking and discoloration on the doors of mine. Even after polishing the paint/chrome surround.

Weber owns Ducane. Napoleon is kinda the Weber of Canada. Both manufactures are good. Both have excellent customer service. The Napoleon has a bit better warranty. A lot of the low end grills from both companies are sourced from China. The Napoleon grills have a really good firebox. You can put a charcoal insert in it if you want to grill that way. If you can find a place that displays both Napoleon and Weber you can see some built differences between the two. The Napoleon Prestige has a lot of good features.

We went with a Weber because of parts availability. Ours is a 7 year old Summit NG and has been very good. Naploleon would have been a second choice, we have a fireplace and firepit insert by them.
