Hi all,
Have been on the market for a new gas grill for the past few weeks and
it only gets more complicated. Have seen a couple that I like at BBQ
Galore (Capt'n Cook) that have cast iron burners, then a couple both
at Home Depot and Lowes with stainless steel burners, what is the
difference and which one is the better buy? Same thing for the
cooking grills, stainless steel, cast iron and porcelain covered cast
iron. Then I saw something new at Home Depot, their RED 3 or 4 Zone
Infrared grill. The flame never touches the cooking surface or food.

I did search Google, and now I am here for your expert advice. Many
thanks in advance.

Probably comes down to personal preference, use, frequency, location, etc.

I live in NY and my grill is outside, uncovered, and used all year.
(gasp, yes, even in winter)

Grill: Weber Genesis Silver B
SS burner
porcelain coated CI grates

9 years so far (heavy use) and the only thing I've done to it is to
replace the starter a month ago. I do need to get new grates shortly but
that's probably due to the fires that started before I had the WSM and
was trying to que in it...

Infared I can't comment on.
