Looking for a new gas grill. 3-4 burners, don’t care about side burners. Full stainless inside construction. IT MUST GET HOT!!! I like to cook my steak at 700+ for about 45 seconds per side, that’s it.

Trying to keep it under $1,000.

Right now I’m liking 3 Embers and Kenmore Elite. Also looking at Turbo, but they are above the $1,000 mark. Weber isn’t out of the question, but their stupid side propane really hinders where I’m putting this.

I have a Kenmore Elite. I like it, but can’t get it past about 600. I cook slower , so it’s fine for me.

Before that I had a Turbo....it’ll get to the temp you want. I could control the temp easily.

If I had it to do again, I would have gotten another Turbo.

Now, both of mine were LNG, not propane.

Just asking a question. If you want high heat... Why not charcoal? Lump charcoal not that pressed stuff.

Webers are great but that is a goofy design on the Genesis. Broil King at BBQgalore looks decent

I have a cheapo Char broil runs around $250, it gets to 600 plus in the summer time, not sure in dead of winter.

I just buy a new one every 4 or 5 years, never had much luck with the expensive lasting long enough to buy another one.

Agree. When I cook steak I use my Portable Kitchen. Have had one for 40 years. Love them! And I lift the top off when I want to cook shish kabob....skewers fit perfectly.


Portable Kitchen

I got the cheapest three burner at Walmart. You can watch the needle climb.

Have you tried one that has a "sear burner" My FIL has one with a different burner on the edge of the cooking surface that is labeled sear. I'm not sure if its just how the burner is shaped or if it gets more fuel, but it is a lot closer to the cooking surface. It still wont quite do it in 45 seconds though.

Gas is for griddles wade and only griddles

Walk outside turn a knob and push a button walk back inside and by time your back its ready or darn close to ready to cook. I love a real fire wood coals or lump charcoal etc. but it takes time.

My expensive model is going on five years old and it's solid. Plus, when the time comes, parts can be replaced rather than buying a whole new unit.

I know it's not gas like BigPig asked for but those are great, too.

I replaced my gas grill with a blackstone griddle ,, Love it

I got the grand turbo back in ‘04 and it was great. It served me well up until about two years ago when we got hail, so I had insurance replace it with the latest model. I can tell you they don’t make them like they used to. The older one just felt more solid, and I’ll be surprised if this one lasts as long. I do like the lights on the newer one though, they make it nice to see what’s going on at night without jacking with a head lamp or flashlight. I used to have a Webber and it was a pretty solid grill as well.

I bought a JJ George Grill Torch and can now get my charcoal cookers up and running about the same time as a gas grill.

Not hating on gas grills at all, but if I do buy another one it will be a Weber.

This one popped open after one beer. It's my cheep one from Walmart.

You need to step up your game and get a BGE.

I put in a Blaze when I built my outdoor kitchen. It serves a purpose for a quick chicken breast or burger, but to actually sear anything I fire up my Egg.

They are 100% stainless down to the cast burners.

I did the same; I like it.

You just got a settlement check. I guess about 13k.

Get a DCS

I have a Webber. It will do what you're talking about. Well built, good heat sink, double wall lid, hold heats perfectly. I have a rotisserie for chickens and beef tenderloins. That sucker will get hot, light all three burners, close the lid watch the needle.

I have a 3 burner weber with the searing burner as well, it's natural gas, that sucker pegs out the thermometer with all 4 on high.

Suggested that yesterday. We have them at my work and they’re nice. I’ve never seen $ tho

Same. Will cook a pizza in about 3 minutes, ain't a steak it can't handle. For chickens I get the temp to 350 and it holds it right there for as long as I need. Burners are stainless, lights with a push button, cast grates. It's all I need for grilling. About $1000, I believe.
