Not everyone has money to burn. But everyone deserves a decent outdoor cooker that can make their BBQ dreams come true. Here are a range of charcoal grills, gas grills, portable grills for tailgating and camping, smokers, and combo cookers that start at only $50. All of them cost less than $300, and they are all winners of our highest honor, the AmazingRibs.com Platinum Medal for Best Value. All of these cookers have been tested, rated, and reviewed by Max Good, our full-time tester of outdoor cooking equipment, so you can be sure that you are getting a quality piece of machinery at a good price. To read the full reviews of these cookers, click the links below.
If you help us, we’ll pay you back bigtime with an ad free experience and much more!
Millions come to AmazingRibs.com every month for quality tested recipes, tips on technique, science, mythbusting, product reviews, and inspiration. But it is expensive to run a website with more than 4,000 pages and we don’t have a big corporate partner like TV network or a magazine publisher to subsidize us.
Our most important source of sustenance is people who join our Pitmaster Club, but please don’t think of it as a donation. Members get 21 great benefits. We block all third party ads, we give members free ebooks, magazines, interviews, webinars, more recipes, a monthly sweepstakes with prizes worth up to $2,000, discounts on products, and best of all a community of like-minded cooks free of flame wars.
