9 Best Gas Grills of 2026

The Spirit E-325 is the grill most backyard cooks should start with. Weber sells the liquid propane version for $549.00 on its US store, and for that you get three burners with 31,000 BTU per hour of main burner input, 360 sq in of primary cooking space and another 90 sq in on the warming rack. The reinvented model adds a Sear Zone: two red Boost Burner knobs that Weber says deliver 40% more power to one side of the grates, so you can sear steaks while the third burner stays low for vegetables. Snap-Jet Ignition lights each burner on its own with one hand. Stainless steel Flavorizer Bars vaporize drippings and steer grease to a slide-out tray, and a cabinet door hides the propane tank. The hammertone side tables fold down, which helps on a narrow deck. The limits are size and extras: four or five people fit, a big party does not, and the Weber Works snap-on accessories cost more. The warranty is 10 years.

The Genesis E-325W is the step up for people who host. At $799.00 on Weber's US store it costs $250 more than the Spirit E-325, and the money goes into size and heat. Primary cooking space grows to 513 sq in with a 127.5 sq in warming rack, and Weber says the grates hold 17 steaks at once. Total input is 49,000 BTU per hour, and the Sear Zone, run by two dual-row PureBlu burners, reaches 750°F. Weber designs PureBlu burners to lift the flame above the tube to cut down on clogs and corrosion. The heavy porcelain-enameled cast-iron grates flip over to seat Weber Crafted grillware, so a griddle, pizza stone or grilling basket drops in later. A Weber Works side table takes drop-in accessories and both side rails take snap-on ones. The warranty is 12 years. Plan the space: it measures 61.4 in wide with the lid closed. The Titanium finish is exclusive to The Home Depot and Weber.com.

Monument's Denali 425 packs the most hardware into a sub-$650 grill on this list. Monument lists it from $619.00 on its US store with four main burners and a side burner for 60,000 BTU in total, 510 sq in of primary space and 710 sq in including the warming rack. Monument says that fits 28 burgers. The smart part is a Bluetooth link to Monument's app that works up to 65 feet, an LED screen on the grill and one meat probe in the box, so you can watch a roast from the kitchen. A Clearview glass window in the lid lets you check food without losing heat, and tri-color knob lights show which burners are on and how hot. Cooking grates are porcelain cast iron, and the 304 stainless steel burners carry an 8-year warranty. The trade-offs: it is propane only, the app needs your phone nearby, and you buy it online rather than from a local dealer who can service it.

The Rogue 425 is Napoleon's way into its grill line, and it suits a smaller outdoor space. Napoleon lists the black propane R425PK-2 at an MSRP of $799. It has three main burners and a cooking area of 23 3/4 by 18 inches, laid with porcelainized cast-iron grids in Napoleon's WAVE shape, which stops small food from falling through and leaves wide sear marks when reversed. Dual level stainless steel sear plates under the grates vaporize drippings and shield the stainless tube burners. Jetfire ignition shoots a jet of flame to each burner and needs no batteries. The side shelves fold, so the grill tucks against a wall on a balcony or small patio, and locking casters keep it in place. Our main issue is value: the product page publishes no BTU figure, and at the same $799 the Weber Genesis E-325W gives more cooking area. Buy the 425 SB at $829 if you want a range side burner.

The Regal S 420 Pro is built for buyers who want a grill to last. Broil King lists it at $1,299.00 for propane and $1,359.00 for natural gas. Four stainless steel Dual-Tube burners give 50,000 BTU of main burner output over 500 sq in of primary space, with 695 sq in in total including the warming racks. The cookbox is 304 stainless steel with cast aluminum end caps, the lid and doors are stainless, and the side shelves are 304 stainless with tool hooks. Under the reversible stainless grids, the Flav-R-Wave system vaporizes drippings to cut flare-ups. Linear-flow valves turn through 180° for finer heat control, and the blue LED knobs and two COB light strips help after sunset. The warranty is the strongest here alongside Napoleon's Prestige: a Limited Lifetime warranty on the cook box and 15 years on the remaining parts and paint. The catch is price, and the propane variant showed as unavailable on the product page when we checked, so ask a dealer.

The Blackstone 36 in Griddle is a different tool from the grills above: a propane-fired steel flat-top instead of grates over burners. Blackstone sells the Original 36" Griddle with Hood for $499.00. The Omnivore griddle plate covers a 36 in top that Blackstone rates for 30 burgers, 47 fried eggs, 69 bacon slices or 21 pancakes at once, which is why it suits big breakfasts, smash burgers, cheesesteaks and fried rice. The hood has a reinforced X brace and protects the cooking surface between uses, rear grease management sends fat to the back, and an extendable side shelf adds prep space with tool hooks and a bottle opener. The BAR System rail and accessory bin keep spatulas in reach. Know the trade-offs before you swap your grill: there are no grates, so no open-flame char, the steel top needs seasoning, and the unit weighs 135 lbs and stretches 64.5 in wide. Blackstone's warranty is 1 year.

The Performance Series 4-Burner is the grill to buy if the budget is about $300. Charbroil sells the gray cart model 463349025 for $299.99 on its US store, the lowest price on this list. It has four burners, heavy-duty porcelain-coated cast-iron grates and Charbroil's FlavorMax system, which pairs those grates with wider heat tents that Charbroil says reduce flare-ups and keep food juicier. Push-button ignition starts it, and the side shelves fold down for storage. Charbroil also sells a 12 in Performance Series griddle insert for $59.99, which adds a flat-top area for eggs or smash burgers. Charbroil calls itself America's No. 1 gas grill brand based on Yipit 2025 U.S. gas grill unit sales. The weak spots are documentation and coverage. The product page we checked gives no cooking area or BTU rating for this exact model, and it lists a 2-year limited warranty in the description but a 1 Year Warranty badge near the cart button. Either way, Weber's 10 years is far longer.

The Prestige 500 RSIB is the grill for people who want every cooking method on one cart. Napoleon lists the stainless propane P500VRSIBPSS at an MSRP of $2,199. Beyond the four main burners it has an infrared sear station on the side shelf for very high direct heat and a rear burner for rotisserie cooking, and Napoleon includes the heavy duty rotisserie kit. Cooking grids are 8.5mm stainless steel, which Napoleon describes as low maintenance, and the grease management system is built for easy cleaning. Jetfire ignition lights each burner with a jet of flame and no batteries. The LED control knobs light up for night cooking and switch to red SafetyGlow when gas is flowing. Six tool hooks are hidden to keep the side shelves clear, and the warming rack stows away. Napoleon backs it with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. Value is the weak point: it costs four times the Weber Spirit E-325, and the product page we checked gives no BTU or cooking area numbers to compare.

The Spirit E-210 is the cheapest way into Weber's current gas lineup at $449.00 on Weber's US store. Its footprint and cooking area match the 3-burner E-325: 360 sq in of primary space, a 90 sq in warming rack and 48.30 in of width with the lid closed. What you give up is a burner and the Sear Zone. Two burners deliver 26,600 BTU per hour against 31,000 on the E-325, and there are no Boost Burners, so searing a steak while keeping a cooler zone for vegetables is harder. You still get Snap-Jet Ignition to light each burner with one hand, porcelain-enameled cast-iron grates, Weber Works side rails and hammertone side tables that resist scratches. The 10-year limited warranty matches the E-325. For a couple who mostly grills burgers, chicken and vegetables, it covers the job. For $100 more, though, the E-325 adds the third burner and Sear Zone, which we think most buyers should take.
