Aussie 4106 Swinger Square Utility Charcoal Grill Review

Aussies are great for searing burgers, but not so much for roasting larger cuts, or cooking over a long duration. They have a very shallow lid, little air control and no ash removal system. We reviewed this model and awarded our Bronze Medal. Great portability, but limited for cooking capability.
Meadow Creek BBQ26 Review

Our AmazingRibs.com Best Value Platinum Medal goes to Meadow Creek’s BBQ26. Read our review of this unique grill; designed for fast and hot grilling, there is no better way to cook chickens than flipping them with Meadow Creek’s double sided grates. Though it looks like a simple black box, it is really a killer tailgater in disguise.
Hasty Bake Continental 83 Dual Finish Charcoal Grill Review

We have never tested and reviewed a finer charcoal grill. Hasty Bake easily earns our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal. There is nothing you can’t do with this grill and it deserves a place in the back yard of every serious outdoor cook. It is the Swiss Army knife of grills.
Cook-Air Wood Burning Grill Review

This is one of the coolest grills we’ve tested and reviewed. Although it can cook anything, the unique design makes it a dedicated searing machine. It’s the ultimate lean mean steak machine. We award this Tasmanian heat devil our AmazingRibs.com Best Value Silver Medal.
Grill Dome Infinity Series Small Review

Grill Dome is known for their beautiful kamados offered in a variety of colors. We reviewed Grill Dome and award our AmazingRibs.com Best Value Gold Medal. The ceramic is Grill Dome’s own creation, called Terapex, which they claim is more durable than traditional ceramic and retains the finish over time.
Big Green Egg Mini Ceramic Cooker Review

As the name indicates, Big Green Egg’s Mini Kamado is their smallest model. Big Green Egg popularized kamado cookers in the USA. We reviewed Big Green Egg and award our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal. They are mighty good, but many new comers to the kamado market are giving them stiff competition.
Green Mountain Grills Daniel Boone Choice Pellet Smoker Review

We reviewed the Green Mountain Grills Daniel Boone Choice and gave it our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal Award. Green Mountain includes some features not common in lower price pellet smokers and that often cost extra even in higher cost cookers.
Fast Eddy’s by Cookshack PG500 Review

We reviewed this backyard pellet smoker designed by award winning competition BBQ Pit Master, Fast Eddy. Aspiring pitmasters dream about Fast Eddy’s pellet smokers when waking at 3 a.m. to throw logs on the fire. Set the temperature, go to sleep and wake up to smoked brisket. We tested PG500 and gave our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal.
Traeger PTG Pellet Smoker Review

There aren’t many portable pellet smokers and the PTG (Portable Traeger Grill) is the smallest we’ve reviewed. With 169 square inches of cook surface and about 6 inches of head room, cooking possibilities are limited. Still this unique little cooker has some useful applications and earns our AmazingRibs.com Silver Medal.
Saber SS 500 3-Burner Gas Grill Review

The Saber SS 500 is a mid-size stainless steel premium model in the Saber line of gas grills. One could compare it to Weber’s Summit grills in quality and price. Saber is a searing machine. We tested and reviewed this model. Saber’s unique design earns our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal Award.

Read our review of Pro-Iroda O-Grills; a line of stylish portable gas cookers that fold up and can easily be carried by integrated handles that also act as a latch to keep the lid shut during transport. These suitcase size grills are marketed for camping, tailgating, picnics, beach parties, apartment decks and balconies.
Char-Griller Grillin’ Pro Gas Grill Review

Low cost gas grills are the instrument of choice for most residential outdoor cooks. We’re always on the lookout to review models that deliver a lot of bang for the buck. Grillin’ Pro earns our Platinum Medal for exceptional performance under $200. Not built to last, but it will out sear any comparably priced gasser.
Bull Angus 4-Burner Gas Grill Review

We reviewed this solid, premium 4-burner grill made with 16 gauge high quality 304 stainless steel. Angus makes it easy to cook a wide variety of recipes and we love the powerful, unique design of the cast stainless steel burners pumping 15,000 BTU a piece. Our AmazingRibs.com Best Value Gold Medal goes to Angus.
Broil King Regal S 490 PRO IR Gas Grill Review

The AmazingRibs.com Gold Medal winning review of Broil King’s Regal 490 is the mid-size model in their Regal Series. Broil King claims their patented Dual Tube Burners produce more even heat. After cooking extensively with dual tubes, we believe the heat is indeed even, but no more so than with similar quality grills. But those Dual Tube Burners sue provide a lot of sear power.
Weber Q 2000 and 2200 Gas Grills Review

Our Q 2000 and 2200 review of Weber’s large portable gas grills with 280 square inches of cook surface and a single 12,000 BTU stainless steel burner. These portables, originally called Baby Q, were a hit coming out of the gate and receive our AmazingRibs.com Gold Medals.
