Napoleon Prestige PRO500RSIBNSS-1 Natural Gas Grill
We are also fans of Napoleon Grills and Smokers so this particular model just had to be listed here. From what we gathered about this Natural Gas Stainless Steel grill, it is high quality, built sturdy, lights quickly, looks stylish and is simple to use. Priced just above $2000 at most retailers, it is really worth the investment. The Prestige Pro 500 is equipped with Stainless Steel 9.5mm WAVE grids, EASY SET Control Knobs, a JETFIRE ignition system and many other goodies one would come to expect in a high-end grill. I also like their exclusive infrared Sizzle Zone side burner which really cooks fast and evenly for those finicky steaks. Click here to read more about Napoleon’s Prestige Pro 500 Grill >>>
Bull Outdoor “Angus” Liquid Propane Grill
Not a big known name, Bull Outdoor Products, but definitely popular with the grill enthusiasts though. This grill produces 75,000 BTU’s-per-hour from 4 burners. Although it is made in China it is constructed of 16-Gauge, 304 brushed stainless steel which is satisfactory in our opinion as it is one of the highest grades of stainless steel and the thickest in the grill industry. It is also CSA-Certified. The hood is a single yet double lined piece. The grates used on this Bull grill is solid 304 stainless steel. You also get Piezo Igniters on every burner. Last checked on Amazon, this grill had a pretty big discount from its usual retail price. Click here for more details >>>
Saber 500 Premium Liquid Propane Gas Grill
This Saber 500 Premium Stainless Steel LP Gas Grill is another favorite of ours. If you like the Saber brand , such as the model above, but looking for a smaller version and perhaps a lower price, then you found it. Saber Grills presents the Saber 500 Premium Grill which has all the same features and is built of the same high-quality parts and construction as their 670 model. The main difference is you get a smaller cooking surface, one less burner and of course less heat output, but if you do not need a large cooking surface, then this version is ideal for you. It boasts about 24,000 BTU’s and 500 square inches of cooking area with a 175 square inch warming rack. Click here for more details >>>
