Charbroil Grills - Inviting Everybody Outside Since 1948

By Mike Pit

Charbroil grills are the flagship brand of W.C Bradley Co. It's operated under the Home and Leisure division and is part of a company that spans 4 generations and 60 years of operation in Columbus, Georgia.

The Charbroil brand has been responsible for putting the company on the map. Over the years, they've become a successful manufacturer of all types of grills and smokers.

Charbroil hasn't stopped with grills. Nor have they stopped by adding smokers and fryers. They've also gotten into the outdoor fireplace business for homes. They offer both gas and wood-burning options. Now more than ever, their slogan "Inviting Everybody Outside Since 1948" makes perfect sense. W.C. Bradley has been keeping families warm and full for 60 years.

In 2008, the CharBroil brand pushed forward new models of grills to the market. They have put emphasis on the products use of infrared technology. Their two grill lines, called the Quantum series and the Red series boast this technology. Although always pushing the envelope in grill technology and innovation, CharBroil grills are quite affordable"prices start at $100 and can go up to only $700. Apart from the infrared grills, of course, the brand still offers classic models.

Most models are sold at retailers nationwide. However, it should be noted that not all models and lines are sold everywhere in the United States. The Quantum and Commercial Series are sold only at big-box retailers such as Lowes. On the other hand, the Red series is sold at Home Depot. Furthermore, the CharBroil also manufactures grills under the Thermos Brand, and these products can be found in Target stores.

Charbroil has a unique grill called the Gas Patio Caddie. While being a full-sized grill, it was designed in a compact form which makes it the perfect grill for small decks, balconies or patios. It also has wheels so it can be relocated with ease as the occasion demands.

* The easy to read lid mounted temperature gauge is very handy

* The burner ignites with just one push of a button.

The Gas Patio Caddie is ideal for lots of moving around and outdoor activities in very small spaces. It can cook only a reasonable amount of food. If you are cooking for a mass of people, perhaps, it is best to find a grill that has a bigger cooking surface.
