Score: 77/100Rankings
The Royal Gourmet CC1830 30-inch barrel grill delivers a generous 811 sq in cooking space, offset smoker, and lid-mounted thermometer for versatile backyard cooking. Assembly can be time-consuming and the basic steel build may not match higher-end models. Perfect for families and smoking enthusiasts wanting ample area without a high price.
The Beau Jardin BBQ010 is an 18-inch portable charcoal kettle with a sturdy porcelain-enameled bowl, wheels, and a removable ash catcher. Its lightweight build may be less stable in wind and it lacks a built-in thermometer. Suited for small families, campers, and tailgaters who need a compact, easy-to-move grill.
