Do you already have a grill? This may seem like a silly question… But it’s truly not! You may be replacing an old grill… Or you’re deciding on a grill for your outdoor kitchen Either way, you’ll have an idea of how well that grill size worked for you.

Was it too small?

Was it too large?

If you’re happy with your current grill size… Just stick with what works! What if you don’t have a grill already? Don’t worry… It’s still quite simple. You have to think about how you’ll realistically be using your grill.

First of all… How many people will you be cooking for most often? Is it just one or two… Or around 4-5 people? Another point to consider is how often you’ll be hosting a barbecue. How often will you be hosting gatherings?

Why size is important

Recommendations

00:28
if not the recommendation we would give to you is to determine how many people you will be cooking for on a daily basis and then consider the periodic cookouts that you may have throughout the year if you only cook for about four to five people on a daily basis but will host

00:44
several cookouts per year for about 12 to 15 people you really should be buying a grill that could accommodate the 12 to 15 people in our opinion it’s always best to buy a little bit bigger because you’ll be less upset about having too much space versus not enough [Music]
