Recommendations for gas grill under $200 ( updated with outcome)

In that price range, I would go with

or

I know the second is a little over $200, but I have a buddy who swears by his Char-Broil infrared. The biggest problem is that they haven't been around long enough to know whether they will last.

I have this one and it works great. Runs a little hot on the middle burner but every gas grill I've had has that problem. I paid 139 bucks for mine at Lowes.

I have had this one for about 6 months and love it

Used to work at academy..an I got people to buy Similar to this pretty often. It's not on the grill isle(it's next to the crawfish burners). It has 2 cast iron burners(a lot better then those metal ones). This isn't the exact one(I searched and couldn't find it) but if you go look for it I'm sure you can spot it.

I got the Char-griller Duo Jr. for $199. It has a gas grill and also a charcoal grill....in case you ever want to do real grilling.

I bought the Weber Q grill 2 years ago.
I love it for everyday use.
Its also great for roasting veggies and the such
Only drawback is it has only one burner. But that has never been an issue with me.

Of course I have a large charcoal pit I use for smoking and large cookouts.

I agree here. I bought a Charbroil 4 burner bottem line grill 3 years ago. Paid $100 and it still doing fine. Need to replace the burners this summer, but I have cooked a ton of stuff in those 3 years.

So, after everyones great input, I decided on repairing the old grill. I just couldn't find a new one that felt well made, was the correct size, and was under 200.

My old grill is an old PatioKitchen by Charboil that I got when my wifes uncle was throwing it out 8 yrs ago after using and abusing it for 5 years. I tore it down, repainted the metal and restained the wood and put in a new burner and push spark along with new rocks back in 2003. Even though I got the side burner working I never really used it and it made the side shelf uneven and useless.

Here is the old grill before this round or repair:





This time I replace the burner with a stainless steel burner, replaced the push start sparker, added a piece of extruded metal to support the new bricks, re stained the wood, removed the side burner and replaced with a large cutting board, added grill tool hooks, repainted the metal, added a more substantial shelf underneath to hold 2 propane bottles instead of the previous 1, and added a LED light. I am going to order a new grill grate too shortly. Total cost right at 65 dollars and about 2 hours of work. The new grate will be about 25 when I order it.

I think it turned out well:

Thanks, I will get more enjoyment out of it knowing I fixed it up.

Those steaks came out great btw.

No, I flipped them just right. Those are stuffed venison backstraps so you need to serve them medium rare at the most.


The light is a cheapo from Target but I like it so far.
