There are several things to look for when shopping for gas grills on sale. Every year, when it starts getting hot, people start looking into getting a new gas grill or getting new parts and accessories for their beloved grill. If you're looking for a GAS GRILL, you'll definitely be seeing the biggest players like Weber, Ducane, Brinkman, and even Coleman being talked about and reviewed online. Whichever grill you choose, all the qualities below are relevant in your search for grills on sale.
Heat distribution is pivotal to successful grilling. If you have a even heat distribution, you're on your way to great BBQ-ing and grilling. To evenly distribute heat on the grate surface, grills can implement ceramic briquettes, vented metal plates, and porcelain-coated cast-iron bars or stainless steel grates. User reviews and testing have resulted in the opinion that porcelain-coated cast-iron bars or stainless steel grates are the most efficient way to distribute heat on the grate surface of a gas grill
As evident in the importance of heat distribution, good barbecue is about temperature control. Variable temperature settings and controls are pivotal in grilling. A good grill will give you the ability to slow roast and sear your food; along with grilling. Most high-end models will include this option; being able to control the temperature of different burners.
In terms of BTU, users have had many discussions as to the value of this spec in evaluating a grill. BTU in gas grills isn't the most important feature to look at in grill comparision. You'd be better served to concentrate on heat distribution, size, etc... That doesn't mean that BTU should be discounted, however. When comparing gas grills on sale in the same "class", huge variations in BTU ratings (lower ratings) should definitely be a sign or warning. There may be a heat intensity or timing issue with the particular unit.
Now for a more obvious, but often overlooked detail - Grate spacing. If you've ever grilled, you've had the odd piece of meat or vegetable fall into the fire - a martyr for "the cause". You can stop this before it happens by choosing a grill with closely spaced grates and possibly bigger rods.
Other extras that can be nice are shelves and warming racks. Shelves on gas grills are great for slicing and dicing, preparing marinades and sauces, and for storing ingredients and tools. Warming racks are the best for toasting buns or re-warming meat that's been off the grill.
To make your gas grill a one stop shop, get a gas grill with a side burner. Anything that you can't cook on the grill can be cooked to your liking on the burner just like in a conventional kitchen. A side burner is perfect for side dishes. You'll probably pay a bit more for a side burner, so evaluate your needs for one. you may be able to use this extra money for other things you may need after buying your gas grill.
Besides the gas grill, you'll most likely need some other essential, grilling devices and accessories. A liquid propane tank will probably have to be bought due to them usually being sold separately. A gas grill cover is a good idea if storing the grill outside. Lastly, a good wire brush, tongs, and other tools will complete your grill set.
Evaluate the features you really need and dive into it. Make a list of the options we've talked about above and start shopping for the perfect gas grill; whether it be online shopping or reading reviews. Use what you've learned here and match it with your budget and you'll have no issues navigating the plethora of gas grills on sale!
