Best gas grills

Top pick: Denali 605Pro Stainless Smart Propane — the best all-rounder here. Big 900 sq in total cooking area, smart temperature control that takes the guesswork out of long cooks, and the strongest owner ratings of the full-size grills.

Who the others suit:

• Weber Genesis Smart EX-325W — if you want a proven name, app-connected monitoring and a smaller footprint; note it's set up for natural gas.
• Napoleon Freestyle 365 — a compact three-burner for balconies and small patios, with stainless looks.
• Nexgrill 4-Burner with side burner — a straightforward, well-reviewed starter grill for a family.
• Char-Broil Performance 4-burner — the budget route if you mostly do burgers and dogs.
• Fuego Element F21C-H — a single-burner, small-space grill that still sears well.
• Monument Eminence 605 — six burners and a rotisserie if you cook for crowds.
