    Default Gas Grill Suggestions

    I hope I am posting this in the correct area, if not I am sorry.
    If you have a gas grill I would love to know what kind you have and if you like it. We only have a charcoal grill, which is great for some foods, but last night I had enough of it. I am not good with charcoal grills and it took me 1.5 hours to cook dinner on it. It wasn't fun. I am now searching for a nice, yet not too expensive, gas grill. Any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance.

    I LOVE my gas grill. I live in Michigan and I cook on it at least 3 times a week ALL YEAR round. I have a Char Broil that I got at Lowe's. My only suggestion is to not buy the really inexpensive ones, the ones for $99, they just don't last. Mine was $199 and it is worth every penny. I use it to cook 2 hotdogs or 1 hamburger patty. Much tastier and no kitchen cleanup!!

    We have a Weber and we love it. At one point we also had a Vermont Castings which I loved too.. Sold it because we only needed on grill and we both entered into our marriage with a grill

    I agree with Kim though, you get what you pay for and the inexpensive grills do not last long

    I bought a cheap char-broil and it lasted 4 years, now I am on my second one. I personally refuse to spend over $89 for one. It is a lot easier to cook on one compared to a charcol grill. I think you will enjoy it. As an added plus if my electricity goes out I can always cook on my grill.

    We have a Char Broil--Got it at Wal-Mart. We use it often. It's been worth the $150 we paid for it.

    However, back in the day when we were REALLY poor. We bought a table top hibachi and used it all the time. It basically did exactly what our BIG grill does now.

    We love our gas grill. We use it all of the time. Just used it tonight to cook grilled zuchinni on it as a side dish. We even scrap the snow off of it during the winter to use it.
