+1 to the Char-Broil.
The acquisition of it was a bit different to the crane drop super grill (above). Wouldn't you know it, was driving a backroad 20 miles from home and I see a stainless gas grill at the front of a driveway with a 'Free' sign. Surely was worth a quick look but upon closer inspection it was obvious Pig Family owned. It was NEVER CLEANED - yuk! I did have to fabricate new gas pipe manifold to the cast burners and took some serious degreasing from the prior piggy owners yet still made it a bargain score.
I forget the private label name - cast emblem but the back of it has a riveted tag and the Made by Char-Broil. Much heavier than the Home Depot big box Char-Broils. 100% stainless, no plastic anywhere, nice slide outs, off-side burner. It does use three independent cast iron burners, and also an upper rotiserie infrared burner. High BTU output - a must have. Going on 5 years since finding it. Next time around would hope to find another and gladly pay.
We also have a traditional Weber charcoal dome type for slow cooked ribs. Sometimes both grills are in use.
And lastly, we also use a small charcoal original Tool Box grill. Fastest cooking portable charcoal grill. Clever design and compact for take along in the truck or car. Met the owner of the company by chance and told him much we love that little grill. Great guy and gave me a set of matching tools, hat, bib...
