A camping trip, backyard barbecue, or tailgate party is incomplete without a fired-up grill. To turn a dull party into an unforgettable one, a propane gas grill may be all you need. Most propane gas grills under $100 are light, portable, and functional.
In this price range, the best is the Blackstone 17-inch grill – hands down. This workhorse delivers 12,000 BTUs of heat and can cook eight big burgers, some fantastic sautéed mushrooms, onions, eggs, and bacon all on the same griddle. Its clean-up is a breeze, just use some paper towels.
The stainless-steel Smoke Hollow Grill has a powerful 10,000 BTU “U” burner. It only weighs 20.2 pounds and is perfect for camping. Pack its 205-square-inch cooking surface with steaks, and you will not slow it down. The Grill2Go Grill by Char-Broil is built like a modern picnic box and has a high impact frame. With a 9,500 BTU burner, it produces at least 65% infrared heat, which is perfect for searing and fast cooking. However, it could be a tad too hot for delicate meats.
The compact and light Petit Gourmet Gas Grill by Cuisinart has 145 sq.in. of grilling area, the smallest on this list. But do not underestimate its grilling prowess, it has a strong 5,500 BTU burner and can roast ten chicken breasts at a go. The 240-square-inch Portable Gas Grill by Char-Broil can handle four medium rib eye steaks simultaneously. Its rugged construction and useful temperature gauge are great features, too.

Review Score -5
Coleman is widely known for creating high quality equipment for enjoying the great outdoors. So, it’s really no wonder that they came up with such an innovative little grill as the Coleman Nxt Lite Tabletop Propane Grill. This isn’t your average portable grill. It has plenty of the same features you’d see in a lot of other portable grills such as a 168-square inch cooking surface, removable grease tray, and porcelain-coated steel surface. But it also has unique features that make it stand out. It comes with Even-Temp burners that radiate heat evenly across the entire cooking surface. And because of PerfectHeat Technology, it is more fuel efficient which means you’ll be able to cook more for far longer than other grills of this size. The Instastart Matchless Ignition makes lighting up the grill a breeze. And then there’s the Swaptop interchangeable design which allows you to switch from using the grill grates to a griddle or a stove grate (sold separately, of course). Even for such a little grill, the versatility it offers makes you feel as if you already have a complete kitchen with you outdoors.
- 168 square inches of grilling surface
- InstaStart button
