When it comes to the gas grill we want to use all summer or even all year long, we often base our decision judging by the look of the actual grill. However, there are so many more options to consider including whether or not they have a rotisserie, the cooking area, heating power, and additional features such as side shelves and natural gas options. We’ve taken all of those into consideration to bring you our top ten gas grills.

Napoleon Mirage – $1,168.98

We scored the Napoleon Mirage a perfect ten as it has just about everything you could want in a grill, and for a great price. It has a heating power of 48,000 BTUs on the primary burners, and 12,500 BTUs on the side burner. Infrared technology also helps heat this grill even quicker. It is mainly fueled by propane but a natural gas option is there too for when you a different type of cook on your foods. And when you feel the need to give things a spin, a rotisserie comes with it to help you do it. The warming rack is an average size of 190 square inches, but it does have one of the smallest cooking areas of all our models, of just 485 square inches. At 61 inches in height it’s also one of the largest models on our list, but that helps it keep its ultra-light weight. One of the biggest drawback users might find is that it comes with just three primary burners.

Napoleon Prestige Pro – $2,599.00
