The Best High-End Gas Grills Include a 6-Burner Behemoth

Best Overall

Weber Genesis EX-325S Smart Gas Grill

$1,486 at Amazon $1,049 at Wayfair $1,049 at Home Depot

You shouldn't have to struggle at all if you're buying a high-end gas grill, and you won't with the Weber Genesis EX-325S. This grill is designed to give you a luxurious and easy experience. To begin with, there's an effortless assembly and it always lights up when you push the button. It quickly connects to your phone via the Weber Connect app, which will tell you the same accurate temperature as what you find on the built-in thermometer.

You'll set that temperature and connect the two included probe thermometers on the digital control panel, built into the extra-large side table. While you can monitor the heat from your phone, you will need to control the burners directly at the grill. The app also includes detailed instructions for every aspect of grilling, including how to keep it clean.

The EX-325S is so great that after two weeks of testing, we had to really search to find any downsides. It was simple to set the efficient burners to what we wanted, and they consistently heated all 513 square inches of cooking space. We did register slightly higher temperatures directly over the burners, but it wasn't even high enough to truly be a hot spot. The primary rack also houses the sear zone, which produced delightfully seared steaks, though it could benefit from an additional burner. Weber also has this available in a natural gas version.

Dimensions: 61.5 x 27 x 48.5 inches | Total Cooking Area: 787 square inches | Burners: 3 | Power: 39,000 BTUs/hour | Warranty: 3 years (Weber Connect); 10 years (cooking grates, burner tubes, Flavorizer bars); 12 years (lid, cookbox); 5 years (all other parts)

View on Bbqguys.com

The Blaze Premium LTE 32-Inch natural gas grill is a high end grill with a 304-stainless-steel body that resists corrosion. The grill’s hood is double-lined stainless steel to prevent discoloration and the four burners are heavy-duty cast-stainless steel. 

Starting the grill is never a problem with the reliable flame thrower ignition system. This grill also features a stainless steel flame-tamer system, which ensures that the burners heat evenly, while also vanquishing flare-ups. Each burner puts out a whopping 14,000 BTUs plus the grill includes triangle shaped searing rods to create those coveted grill marks. Knobs lit with LED lights and internal halogen lights enhance night time grilling. 

The grill also includes a warming rack for added convenience, as well as heat zone separators that allow for direct and indirect cooking zones. Clean up is a snap with a removable full width drip tray. The grill comes with a lifetime warranty as well as exceptional customer service. The built-in style of the grill requires planning ahead when it comes to installation. It can be set into an outdoor kitchen or used as a standalone grill with the purchase of a cabinet.

Best for Entertaining

Camp Chef Apex 36 With Gas Kit

View on Amazon $2,450 at Home Depot View on Campchef.com

Anyone who throws a lot of backyard parties needs a lot from a grill. You need an ample amount of space to cook for everyone, enough fuel to keep the party going, the ability to cook a lot of different things, and effortless clean up. Camp Chef's Apex 36 with the gas kit (of course) satisfies all of these necessities with a few bonus additions.

This pellet/gas combination grill comes with a 663-square-inch bottom rack that sits over six 9,000-BTU gas burners, plus a top rack and a 28,000-BTU side burner. Add in the 30-pound hopper and you have the space and fuel for an all-day affair. The entire grill connects to the Camp Chef app so you can control the digital interface from your phone, and monitor the four included colored probes, which have their own storage on the front of the grill. Also on the front is the slide-out grease tray, with the ash pot easy to access underneath.

Other design features Camp Chef improved with this grill is the smoke ventilation. Instead of a smoke stack, this circulates smoke around the double-walled interior before exiting out a back vent. One catch here is you'll have to purchase any other accessories, whether it's the side-burner pizza oven or a simple grill cover. Additionally, unlike the other big grills on our list, Camp Chef only offers a 3-year warranty on its grills.

Dimensions: 79.25 x 32 x 44.5 inches | Total Cooking Area: 1,236 square inches | Burners: 7 | Power: 56,000 BTUs/hour | Hopper Capacity: 30 pounds | Warranty: 3 years

Best for Rotisserie

Napoleon Grills Built-in Prestige 500

$1,999 at Amazon $1,381 at Walmart View on Bbqguys.com

If you want a grill that can do more than grilling, look for a model that offers rotisserie capabilities. This high-powered, 5-burner grill also offers rear infrared rotisserie burner and a rotisserie kit that allows you to slow roast food with restaurant-quality results. Say hello to the juiciest, most succulent meat of your life, right from the comfort of your outdoor cooking space. With 48,000 BTUs, this grill comes with a ton of power and 500 square inches of surface area so that you can cook plenty of food at once.

It also comes with a high-heat infrared side burner to sear food (like steak) at extremely high temperatures as you cook other dishes on the grill. Napoleon has thought of everything, including exterior lighting which is a surefire way to know your burners are still on after-dark. We have tested the gas grill version of this, and found that the built-in thermometer isn't as accurate as we'd like, so be sure to pick up an infrared thermometer for your grilling adventures. Although many of these added features may not be essential to successful summer grilling, they’re an additional benefit for all the grill enthusiasts out there.

Dimensions: 32.5 x 25.5 x 22.25 inches | Total Cooking Area: 760 square inches | Burners: 5 | Power: 48,000 BTUs/hour | Warranty: Lifetime (major components including the hood, stainless steel lid, porcelain enamel lid, aluminum castings, stainless steel cooking grids, and stainless steel tube burners); 15 years (stainless steel sear plates, porcelain enamel cast iron grids, stainless steel infrared rotisserie, infrared bottom/side burner, and all other parts)

Best 2-Burner

Fuego Element Hinged Propane Gas Grill

$399 at Amazon $399 at Walmart View on Walmart

If you’re tight on space or you don’t have the need to cook a lot of food at once, then you may be better suited for a 2-burner grill. If that’s the case, this model is the best one out there. With 22,000 BTUs, it's a smaller grill that certainly packs a powerful punch. It also comes with a whopping 346 square inches of cast-iron grilling grate with an optional griddle and pizza stone kit. The easy-to-clean residue removal system ensures that grease can drop straight through to the residue tray, making clean-up a breeze. 

The propane tanks nest easily in the base of the grill for compact and efficient storage. The hinged lid design sits at a 45-degree angle, which helps to prevent the need to reach over a hot flame—and you no longer need to worry about the lid handle heating up.

Dimensions: 21 x 21 x 46 inches | Total Cooking Area: 346 square inches | Burners: 2 | Power: 23,000 BTUs/hour | Warranty: 1 year
