What are the best types of grills?

Outdoor grills often vary by fuel source, price and portability. Gas grills and charcoal grills are among the most common, and are powered by fuel like propane or charcoal briquettes. Electric barbecue grills have evolved into a popular option for backyards and homes, while portable grills offer a more practical way to take your grilling antics on-the-go — whether it be for a tailgate party or camping trip.

Traeger grills often rank among the most expensive, but are designed to deliver a smokier, wood-fired flavor to whatever food you're cooking. BioLite grills are great for outdoor adventures and are available in a variety of kits and bundles, so you can stock up on grilling accessories and tools in addition to your appliance.
