outdoor Electric Grill Reviews

There is a growing number of people who are not able to use charcoal and gas grills at their location and still like to grill. I have had a good look at the top-rated electric grills for you if you are one of those.

I mostly look at the outdoor electric grills here but if you are looking for grilling indoors you can have a look at our indoor grill reviews and find your perfect grill.

Another type of electric grill you can have a look at is in my Electric smoker reviews and although you can use them as an electric grill in many cases this is not their main purpose.

Charbroil Patio Bistro electric grill

char broil patio bistro

The Char-Broil bistro electric grill comes in 2 models.
The tabletop patio bistro 180 and the patio bistro 240 that is built on a frame.

With a lot of features being the same for this bistro electric grill we review the model 240 here.
The basic difference is that the 180 tabletop is 1500 watts instead of the 1750 watts for the 240 model.

The look and easy-to-handle construction make it in my opinion an all-around electric grill.
Perfect for patios and apartment balconies.

With its small size, it is perfect for small patios and balconies. In areas where gas grills are not allowed this can be a great grill.

Weber Q2400 Electric Grill

Weber q 2400 electric grill

The Weber Q 2400 electric grill is basically the same as the old 240 models.

There are mainly some new cosmetic features like a larger grip handle and control knob and newly shaped side handles.

The Weber company is famous for its quality grills and claims that all or at least most components are made in the USA.

We found in our Weber electric grill reviews that with this portable electric grill, you can grill without the trouble of messing with charcoal or propane gas. That is why it is easy to use on a balcony or small patio.

Char Broil Tru Infrared 180

charbroil tru infrared 180

The char broil tru infrared 180 is one the first of many Char Broil Infrared Grill reviews for an electric grill we did. This is a tabletop grill for outside use. I am impressed with the features and the results this “small” grill provides. If you are not familiar with what an infrared grill is you can read it here.

The temperature gets up to 550 degrees with its 1500 Watts. This also provides the nice grill marks we like to see on our meat.

One of the things I like is that you can add wood chips to get that wood-smoke flavor added to the meat you are grilling.

The removable grease tray makes it easy to clean and if you remove the grill you can soak the rest in the kitchen sink for easy cleaning.

Store the removable controller inside to protect it from the weather.

Meco DeLuxe Electric

meco aussie 9325 deluxe

Meco 9325 Deluxe Electric Cart Grill. This is the first one we will do in our Meco electric grill reviews here because the features of both grills are similar. The 0329 W is equipped with a rotisserie attachment. Both grills work well for the purpose they are sold.
Fast heating up and easy to use for a variety of meats. Many people are very happy with this grill and would buy it again. This grill is not too expensive and can be used in places where gas or charcoal is not allowed, like balconies and small patios.

meco aussie 9392 with rotisserie

Meco Aussie 9329W Deluxe Electric Cart Grill with Rotisserie is the second grill. As we mentioned this is basically the same grill but it has the feature of a rotisserie that can be used to grill all kinds of meats easily. Read through the whole review and then decide if the rotisserie is a feature you will use.

Cuisinart CEG-980T electric grill

Cuisinart table top CEG-980T review

This Cuisinart CEG-980T electric portable grill comes in 2 models.
The tabletop model and the CEG-980 with VersaStand. They are basically the same grills that are why we did not make 2 reviews to make it easier on you.

It is merely a personal choice if you go for the tabletop model or the one with the VersaStand.

Kenyon electric grill

Kenyon electric grill

The Kenyon electric grill is a top-of-the-line electric grill and although high priced they are worth every penny you pay for it.
Read all the Kenyon Electric Grill reviews here!

I have reviewed three models.
the Kenyan Floridan B70082 the Kenyon Frontier B70090 and the Keyon Frontier B70050. I am working on the Kenyon Texan Review. I am impressed with the results. They come with a price tag, but you get what you pay for.


What is the best small outdoor electric grill?

Answering the question of what the best electric BBQ is like people also call these electric grills is almost impossible.

I prefer the Char-Broil brand. This is, in my opinion, the best electric infrared grill. But this is a personal preference. Some people do not like the infrared feature. For those, I think they should have a look at the Weber electric grill reviews we did.

What about the ever going on question of using a Weber or Char-Broil grill? I like both brands and have used both brands. Weber does not have an infrared model but has some other great features and I love their durability.

If you like to have top-quality I suggest having a look a the Kenyon electric grills. Although not small they are of very high quality. Just remember that you pay for the quality.

Outdoor Electric Grill Reviews – My Experience

I believe there are places where my electric BBQ grill reviews can help you find the perfect one and will give you the chance to grill and cook on them.

The quality has improved over the years and because of that, they are getting more and more popular.

I have cooked on the electric Weber 2400 and was pleasantly surprised by how hot it got. I honestly did not expect that.

Remember that electric grills will cycle off and on and that will give a (small?) temperature fluctuation. So, heating them is an important step to ensure hot grill grates.
