We have been shopping around for a new grill and I wanted to get yalls opinion. We were thinking about some kind of hybrid but don't want to spend a fortune- preferably no more than $400 or so. We would mainly use it for chicken, steak, chops & veggies…

So, F&D Board... what grill would be the best bang for our buck?

Get a Weber 22.5 inch, and get a Weber Smoky Mountain 22.5 inch.

I love my akorn


It's most of the benefits of a big green egg but costs less than 300 bucks

Obviously it won't last forever like an egg, but I can cook just about the same way the eggs do

Weber kettle one touch with the ash catcher (gold). You will be able to do steaks and indirect low and slow. Just when you master it, you'll upgrade and get a WSM and still cook on the one touch! Each will have its own merit!

After 20 years of grilling and having tried many of the grills on the market, I switched back to the Weber silver 22.5" and have never looked back. After a very small learning curve, you can grill and smoke with the best of them. Just get a Weber chimney starter and a water pan as well. Love the gold series as well. I will be buying a WSM this spring to augment my arsenal. IMO, you can't go wrong with a Weber.

BGE or primo. It'll be the last grill/smoker you purchase.

My neighbors bge is 17 years old and besides a little fading, looks and works like a boss.
