Over the last several months,The Top 5 Gas Grills Articles I've had an opportunity to look at many of the gas barbecue grills on the market today.  Most all of them are very good products with very few exceptions.  Many less expensive models had features like side burners, usually found on the higher priced grills.But, I wanted to look past all of the bells and whistles to find out exactly what constitutes a "good buy" when purchasing a gas grill.  I based my research on high quality and dependability.  I wanted to make sure that the gas grills I recommend today will be on your deck or patio many years down the road.  I also wanted to make sure that replacement parts, should you need them, be readily available.There are many great brands of grills out there.  Char-broil, Vermont Castings, and Jenn-Air just to name a few.  By the way, my brother has a Jenn-Air and loves it.  But there is one company that outshines them all when it comes to long lasting high quality and dependability.  Once again it's Weber.  Their great design and high quality construction is their signature.  When you buy a Weber grill, you know it will last a good long time.  As for the replacement parts, you can either order directly from Weber or, my local Ace Hardware store has a very good selection of Weber brand parts on the shelves.  Everything from new grill grates and burners to replacement wheel and handles.  The choice is very clear - Weber.The following is my list for Top 5 Gas GrillsWeber Spirit E-210The Weber Spirit E-210 is a great starter grill.  It features two stainless steel burners that pump out 26,000 BTU's of heat, good for most backyard barbecues.  It also features Weber's patented Electronic Crossover Ignition for dependable firing;  With a total cooking area of 458 square inches, there is plenty of room for those burgers, and hot dogs the kids love so well.  Its' compact design is perfect for small decks and patios.  This is a great grill for those who don't have much space available.Weber Spirit E-310The Weber Spirit E-310 is the next step up.  A little bit larger in size, it has all of the same features found on the E-210 plus it boasts and increased heating capacity to 36,000 BTU's.  Also and increased cooking area to 536 square inches provides even more capability.  Simply a great value for the money.  Weber Genesis E-310The Weber Genesis Series is the most popular gas grill series on the market.  The E-310 features three stainless steel burners with 42,000 BTU capacity.  Total cooking area is 637 square inches, and it also features the Electronic Crossover Ignition System.  Its' high quality construction with premium grade metals means it will give you great service for many seasons.Weber Genesis E-320The Weber Genesis E-320 Gas Grill has all of the same great features as the E-310 above with the addition of a side burner.  This 12,000 BTU burner makes it very convenient when preparing sauces and side dishes.  You can't go wrong with a Weber Genesis Series Grill.Weber Summit S-420The Weber Summit Series is the top of the line in gas grills.  The S-420 model features four stainless steel burners which boasts a whopping 48,800 BTU heating capacity.  It has 650 square inches of total cooking area, plenty of room for anything you have to barbecue.  With its completely stainless steel construction you know you're buying a high quality product here.I hope this information will help you in your decision on what to look for when considering a gas grill purchase.  Good luck and good grillin'.
