George Foreman Indoor/Outdoor Electric Grill
Score: 75/100
Master Cook 3-Burner BBQ Grill
Score: 72/100Rankings
The George Foreman Indoor/Outdoor Electric Grill delivers a spacious 240 sq in non-stick surface, five-setting temperature control, and a fat-removing sloped design, ideal for large indoor or patio meals. Its reliance on a power cord and bulky dimensions limit true portability and storage. Great for apartment dwellers or hosts serving up to 15 people.
A portable 3-burner propane grill with stainless-steel build and convenient wheels and foldable shelves. Its very low weight and ambiguous BTU rating limit stability and heat output. Best for casual patio cooks needing easy-move capability.
