Outdoor Kitchens are great for entertaining or dining outdoors but they also add value to your home! Choosing the appliances you want in your outdoor kitchen should be your first step. This is because your outdoor kitchen should be built around your grill not the other way around!
The grill is the centerpiece and heartbeat of your outdoor cooking experience.
We have composed a list of the best built-in grills (from luxury to budget friendly) for 2019. There is a grill for everyone on this list.
The grills we list are evaluated on our decades of experience servicing and selling grills making The BBQ Depot the experts in our industry. We have carried almost every brand. There are many brands we choose not to carry. We are very particular on manufacturers we sell. We evaluate grills solely based on quality and durability, how well it holds up in South Florida, how often we have to service the product as well as popularity.
We are available for any and all questions regarding the best product for your budget!
When choosing a grill, be sure your grill offers quality, performance and a great manufacturer behind the product. The market is flooded with many "private labeled" imported grills. We always have a buyer beware on these grills as the stability of the brand and availability of parts may not be readily available. Nothing worse than planning a BBQ and not having parts for your grill.
These grills on our list have a longstanding footprint in manufacturing outdoor appliances as well as they offer exceptional warranties back by US manufacturers and are are built to last!

6. TEC Patio II PFR2
TEC makes this list as the top Infrared Grill.
These guys were the inventors of the infrared grill (over 40 years ago). They went back to their roots when they reintroduced the Patio II series Grill (it had been discontinued for years). TEC's current line up includes the Patio I (26") and Patio II (44"). It is offered in the Patio and Sterling Patio. The difference between the two is the hood.
The Patio II 44" Grill features two 100% infrared burners. This technology is the only of its kind. It smokes, sears and barbecues slow and low. Will reach temps as low as 200 degrees. The biggest disadvantage of the grill line is the availability of complimentary products for your outdoor kitchen. If you d not need but storage and a refrigerator... Then Go TEC!
