My wife gave me $600 to buy a grill for my birthday. I have narrowed it
down to 2 choices:



CHOICE 1: STAINLESS STEEL NEXGRILL

896" cooking surface

48,000 BTU stainless steel main burners (5 total)

12,000 BTU side burner

5 stainless steel flame tamers

Rotisserie kit included

Cast iron grill plates

Price: $549 at Target



CHOICE 2: COMMERCIAL CHAR-BROIL

815" cooking surface

53,000 BTU cast brass main burners (4 total) lifetime warranty on burners

10,000 BTU side burner

Porcelain grill plates

(Flame tamers not included- never had these, are they desirable?)

(Rotisserie kit not included- would I ever really use this?)

Price: $499 at Lowes



Questions:

Is one a better made grill than the other?

What are the pros/cons of porcelain vs. cast iron?

How do the stainless steel burners hold up compared to the cast brass?

Are the flame tamers really desirable?

Which of these 2 would you choose if you were buying and why?



Thanks.

Anthony
