Outdoor grills are one of those items that come in a wide range of prices. You can find a grill for under $100 that will let you cook outdoors. But like many other things, you get what you pay for, and chances are you will have to replace it after a season or two. If you are ready for an upgrade to take your outdoor cooking to the next level, it’s time to go pro.

Here are a couple of things to consider when taking your outdoor grill to the next level:

Size

Professional grills offer more grilling space, whereas $100 grills only have a couple hundred square inches. The smaller of the Blaze Professional Grills, the 32-inch Four-Burner Grill, offers 740 square inches of cooking space, and the largest model, the 44-inch Four-Burner, boasts 1050 square inches of cooking surface.

Burners

When upgrading your gas grill, you have to consider the burners. The $100 grills have burners that are made of low-grade stainless steel, which means they are likely to rust faster. The Blaze Grills contain professional-quality burners made of 304 cast stainless steel designed to resist rust and corrosion.

Heat Output

When shopping for grills, you will see the BTU listed, which represents the measurement of how much heat the grill can produce. Blaze Grills produce 14,000 BTUs per burner, and with the Blaze Infrared Burners you can get 18,000 BTUs per burner. But high BTUs are only as good as the grill’s ability to keep and maintain the heat. The double-lined grill hood protects the outer layer from heat discoloration and maintains more heat overall.

Build Quality

One of the sure-fire signs of a lower quality grill are low-quality steel, aluminum, or even plastic. Blaze Grills are made of high-quality stainless steel, and heavy 12 mm stainless steel hexagonal rods make up the grill surface for maximum durability. The push and turn flame-thrower ensures the grill will light in any weather conditions. Additionally, the Blaze Rotisserie kit includes a waterproof motor, and a removable drip tray makes clean up easy. Interior lights help you see the grill even when the sun goes down.

Warranty

If you want a grill to last a long time, check the warranty. Blaze gas grills have a lifetime warranty that warrants against any defects in the manufacturing and workmanship of the main burners, cooking grids, body, flame tamers, heat zone separators, warming rack, and control valves. Ignition, electronic, and lighting systems are covered for one (1) year after the date of purchase.
