FAQ: 50–56 Inch Built-In Gas Grills

Is a 56-inch grill too big for most backyards?

Not for larger patios or homes that entertain frequently. A 56" grill provides unmatched cooking space and flexibility, especially when hosting big gatherings.

Which brands make the best 50–56” grills?

Lynx, Alfresco, American Made Grills (Encore + Muscle), Twin Eagles and Solaire are by the top performers and best in its class in this size range.

How large should my island be?

Plan for at least 10–12 feet of linear space to comfortably house the grill, side burners, storage, prep area and any additional outdoor cooking appliances you want to add.

Do I need an insulated jacket with a large built-in grill?

If your island is built from combustible materials (wood framing, certain sidings, etc.), an insulated jacket designed for your specific grill is required. This protects the structure and helps you meet safety guidelines and manufacturer requirements.
