How To Choose Your New Grill

We don’t know about you, but we've got summer on the brain and can't wait for the grill to be fired up 24/7. 

Have you started looking at new grills? What with all the smoking and cooking you’re going to be doing this summer, we think it’s about time. 

If yes, this is the blog for you! If no, are you sure? Maybe it’s time for an upgrade? That’s what we thought. 

There are a few things to think about when you are buying a new grill, here’s how you can easily choose what type of grill is best for you.

1. What Type of Fuel Do You Want to Use? 

Char-Griller makes a ton of different grills from classic barrels and dual fuels to AKORNS and griddles, we have a grill for everyone. Char Griller has been doing charcoal for over 25 years and they are constantly innovating to bring you the best in new grilling technology so you can make the best choice.

2. Do You Want to Smoke Food?

If you’re never planning on smoking food...please reconsider because it is a whole new dimension to grilling.

If you’re still skeptical about smoking food, but want the option to just in case, any of the Char Griller  barrel grills are great. They are available in a multitude of sizes and are Side Fire Box compatible so you can add a smoker later on.

3. Yes, I Do Want to Smoke

If you know you want to smoke food, we have an important question for you: offset smoker or kamado style grill?

Offset smokers give you the ability to create real Texas-style BBQ right in your backyard. The AKORN Kamado grills are the most versatile of all our smokers. You can use it to sear, smoke, grill, bake and more thanks to unique shape and convection style heat distribution throughout the grill.

Both grills will serve you well. Offset smokers are great for cooking for a crowd and the AKORN is great for people who want their grill to be a master of many different cooking methods. 

4. What if I Have A Super Small Space?

We have grills for spaces of every size. You don’t need a massive backyard or driveway to own a Char-Griller. From the Outlaw to the Akorn junior you can grill out in any sized space.
