Best Outdoor Grill Deals: Shop Now and Save Up to $350 Off

There’s no beating the original in terms of getting the best performance and the simplest design for the lowest cost. For a fraction of the price of a kamado or a gas grill, Weber’s basic 22-inch kettle is the standard-bearer of charcoal grills. You can get it for $139 at Lowe’s or Amazon, a 10% discount off the regular price of $155. 

Weber’s 22-inch Premium Charcoal Grill is also a great deal for $80 more than the basic kettle above. Compared with the Original model, the Premium provides a better ash catcher (for less mess on your patio), a built-in thermometer in the lid (for help keeping a constant temperature when cooking low and slow) and a hinged cooking grate (for adding more coals without needing to remove the entire grate). The current price is a modest 6% discount, but it still saves you $14 on what’s already a well-priced grill. 

Want an alternative to the kettle-style Weber grill? After testing, the cart-style Nexgrill got our reviewer’s vote as one of the best charcoal grills available. It offers decent performance, with added space on the side to keep a dish, sauce or tools. It’s typically priced at $199, but the Home Depot exclusive price is $149.

Char-Broil’s three-burner stainless-steel gas grill offers the best balance of features and performance among the models CNET has tested. At 25,500 Btu over 420 square inches, it provides a good amount of grilling power and space. It also has a side burner and tank storage behind two cabinet doors, and it comes with a 10-year warranty. Char-Broil uses what it calls Tru-Infrared, a set of perforated emitter plates that separate food from flame to evenly distribute heat and reduce flare-ups. You can currently pick it up for $150 off the usual price when you shop at Char-Broil directly. 

Kamado grills are usually made from ceramics and boast amazing heat retention that lets you maintain a constant temperature for low-and-slow cooking. They can also reach high temps for grilling burgers and even pizza. Big Green Egg started the kamado craze and is still the leader in making the best-performing and best-looking kamados.

The price is generally high on these grills, but right now you can score one for $935, which is $165 less than the regular price of $1,100.

A pellet grill combines the smoky goodness you get from cooking over charcoal with the ease of gas. This model from Victory is $350 off from the BBQ Guys right now and lets you maintain a steady temperature between 180 degrees, for a low-and-slow cook, and 500 degrees, for high-heat grilling. The 29-pound hopper will let you cook all day, and it has a digital controller with two temperature probes so you can keep a close, accurate watch on whatever you’ve got cooking.

Of all the portable grills CNET has tested, this sleek gas grill from Weber is the clear winner. It’s easy to assemble and feels sturdy. The igniter works well, and the grill quickly climbs to temperature, reaching its advertised 500 degrees Fahrenheit in only 15 minutes. The flame is easy to control and keeps a consistent temperature throughout cooking, even when you’re grilling with the flame turned low. At Walmart it’s currently $52 off if you’re willing to go with the black variant.
