Best Propane Grills for 2023
Whether you’re replacing an old, worn out gas grill or making your first purchase, we want to help you get it right. That’s why our BBQ Experts have compiled a list of the industry's best propane grills.

Our experts at BBQGuys have created this list of the best freestanding propane gas grills by picking out stable supplier lines and inventory availability through the COVID-19 pandemic, then separating choices by grill class and sorting by the following important factors:
- Quality - It’s hard for a grill to be considered one of the best if it can’t stand the test of time. Quality is most often affected by the material and thickness of the various parts of a grill. These grills tend to be constructed from high grade materials, including 304 commercial grade stainless steel. Most have excellent warranties, some even backed for a lifetime!
- Performance - Not all propane grills cook identically. When we test grills, we’re looking for high heat capability, a wide temperature range, even heat distribution, and minimal flare ups. These grills generally score excellently for these factors, helping them rise to the top!
- Features - You want a grill that will fit your personal style and blend seamlessly into your outdoor space. These grills are sleek and modern with eye-catching features, such as LED control knobs and illuminated cooking surfaces. We specifically chose grills on stainless steel carts with clean lines and edges — you can be sure any of these grills would make a striking addition to your backyard!
- Value - A grill's value is determined by the relationship of its quality, features, & performance to its price point. To qualify, any given grill had to greatly exceed these traits.
