Built-In Grills $2000-$3500

What size built-in grill can I get for $2,000 to $3,500?

This tier spans 24 to 42 inches, the widest size range of any built-in price band. A 30 or 32 inch grill covers a family of four, 36 inches suits regular entertaining, and 40 and 42 inch five-burner models such as the Bonfire Prime 500 and the Coyote CL-Series 42 handle large gatherings.

Which brands sell built-in grills in the $2,000 to $3,500 range?

Coyote, Summerset, Bonfire, Artisan, TrueFlame, RCS, American Outdoor Grills, Sunstone, Broilmaster and Memphis all place built-in grills in this band. That depth is why the range is the usual starting point: you can weigh a Coyote C-Series against a Summerset Sizzler or an AOG T-Series at one budget.

How many burners do I need on a built-in grill?

Three burners suit most families, four add dedicated searing space and five are for frequent large gatherings. This range holds two-burner 24-inch grills from AOG, three- and four-burner 32-inch models from Summerset, and five-burner 40 and 42 inch grills from Summerset, Bonfire and Coyote.

What is the difference between 304 and 443 stainless steel on a built-in grill?

Most built-in grills in this range use 304 stainless steel, the grade that stands up best to weather in an outdoor island. Summerset's Sizzler and Sizzler Pro use 443 stainless instead. Both grades appear in this tier, so check which one a grill uses when you compare 32 and 40 inch models.

Can I get a charcoal or pellet built-in grill for $2,000 to $3,500?

Yes. The Coyote 36-inch charcoal built-in and the Sunstone 28-inch charcoal grill both use an adjustable charcoal tray, and the Memphis Elevate 30-inch is a Wi-Fi pellet grill with dual open-flame modes reaching 900°F. The rest of the tier runs on natural gas or propane. Browse built-in grills.

What features come standard between $2,000 and $3,500?

Infrared sear zones, rotisserie systems and interior lighting all appear in this tier rather than only above it. The Artisan Professional 36-inch ships with a rotisserie, and the Sunstone Ruby 30-inch carries a Pro-Sear burner. Feature sets vary by model, so compare spec lists directly.

Should I spend more than $3,500 on a built-in grill?

Step up only if you need what the next tier adds: integrated smokers, hybrid gas-charcoal-wood cooking and combo grill-and-griddle units. The $2,000 to $3,500 range already covers 24 to 42 inch sizes, five-burner output and rotisserie. Compare built-in grills from $3,500 to $5,000 before deciding.

What do I need to measure before buying a built-in grill?

Measure the width, depth and height of the cutout opening in your island and match them to the grill's specified cutout dimensions, not its nominal size. A 36-inch grill does not need a 36-inch hole. Confirm your fuel type at the same time. Browse 36-inch built-in grills to compare.
