Sigh.

So, my gas grill is on its last legs. Rotting out. Needs to be replaced.

And I'm wondering about infrared BBQ grills. The very first one I read
about would let you cook with gas, charcoal and/or infrared but the
price nearly made me swallow my tongue.

What features are worth having? Minimum BTUs? Reasonable price?

I have not had any personal experience with the IR grills, but I do know
many now have one burner or section with IR-based heat, mainly for searing
steaks and the like. I know Napoleon Grills have a good reputation and were
one of the first to bring infrared technology to home grills.

Very cool looking grills. Their charcoal grills look overly fancy, but
nevertheless well-made.
