    Gas grill recommendations

    I have a very good friend of mine that asked me what I would recommend regarding a gas grill to use on his farm. He has close to 400 acres and there is a covered area that he uses for family gatherings and what-not. He isn't looking to turn it into an outdoor kitchen but wants a gas grill large enough to cook about 12 steaks. I've looked at the reviews here and also outside of the site and was thinking the Weber Summit S-670 would be a good choice. I'd love to hear others thoughts on this from personal experiences and also any alternative recommendations. Thanks in advance!

    I think you've already picked the winner ...

      Good choice imo.

        That Weber is very nice but DCS has more power

          Yeah and it costs 3 times as much

        One of the big Napoleon's might be a good choice. They have them with the sear station on the side.

          I own an S-670 and can vouch for it, it's a great grill. I also like the Napoleons, especially the models with the side sear. If he's only using it intermittently I wouldn't advise him to spend more than $3000, not worth it imho.

            I've had a Weber Summit as well. Great grill lasted years in a salty air location. Replaced the burners twice. Once under warranty once out of pocket. I gave it to my sister. It is 10 years old and still going. Box is rusting but it still cooks. That said I bought a DCS and there is no comparison. Time will tell concerning longevity though.

            My Summit S650 is still going strong after over 10 years of heavy use. I live in the mountains, though, not in sea air. No replacements except a side burner ring plate, due to my own personal FUBAR (for details read here: https://pitmaster.amazingribs.com/fo...autionary-tale. )

          I have an S-670 and love it. Got it used, and will probably have to replace burners soon, but I use it constantly.

            Thanks for all the replies. Recommended the S-670 and hope I get to cook on it

              600 series Weber. Boom. Period. End of story. (IMHO at least. )

                I like all Webers for warranty and parts availability if nothing else. I'll probably never own a Summit gasser, but have been using Genesis gas grills since my dad got a Genesis 3 burner in 1985 at the local Ace hardware.

                  I have owned two 670’s over the years. Hard to beat in the gas world.
