Elevate Your Outdoor Grill Experience and Production

If you’re grilling for a big party, or planning to treat yourself to a homestyle meal while camping or vacationing, a barrel grill is perfect for both, providing a balance of portability and ease of use. Whether you’re broiling or baking, you can find the right style of grill to suit your cooking preferences in our stock, which includes the following types:

Freestanding

The most universal form of barrel-style grills, these feature a simple, cylindrical cooking chamber mounted on sturdy legs. Some models feature additional storage solutions and workspace for in-depth meals that demand preparation. A recommended style for grillers who prefer a no-frills, durable option, freestanding barrel grills typically operate with charcoal or wood logs, chips or pellets, and offer plenty of cooking space for grilling large quantities of food.

Cart-Style

Offering more functionality and convenience than other types of barrel-style grills, these models are mounted on a wheeled cart, making them easy to move where they need to go to start cooking. Most varieties come with side shelves for food prep, storage racks for grilling accessories and tools and sometimes a side burner for additional cooking options. Cart-style barrel grills are ideal for more frequent grillers, who prefer having additional space and flexibility in repositioning the grill.

Tabletop

These grills are more compact, lighter and portable, designed to be placed on a flat surface, such as a picnic table, outdoor counter or just about any other surface outdoors – as long as it's flat. With a smaller size, they are great for camping trips, tailgating or small spaces, such as patios or balconies. Although they offer less cooking space than larger barrel grills, they’re simple to transport and store, which is why they are a convenient choice for on-the-go grilling.

Frequently Asked Questions About Barrel Grills

What materials are barrel grills made from?

One of the most important considerations you’ll need to make when choosing a barrel grill is its construction. Many in our selection are comprised of steel, which can stand up to extreme temperatures and is rust-resistant when powder-coated. Others are painted steel, which is relatively easy to clean but can be prone to chipping when not maintained. For an option that retains heat well and is favored for searing, choose cast-iron, although it may need regular seasoning to help prevent corrosion.

What are the advantages of barrel grills?

Easy to fire up and offering cooking surfaces of various sizes, these outdoor grills are perfect for everything from small get-togethers with friends to large family reunions. Providing versatility for new and experienced outdoor chefs alike, they are known for their large surface areas, fuel efficiency and durability. Some models even have compact designs that work well for smaller spaces.
