Traeger Longhorn Grill
Don’t hate it because it’s beautiful. The Longhorn is a quadruple threat: It grills, barbecues, smokes and bakes. Fueled by wood pellets in a variety of flavors, the grill imparts a tangy, smoky taste to meats. Just don’t let your overindulging brother-in-law lasso the thing. $1,495,

Viking T-Series
The Porsche of gas grills, Viking’s T-Series looks fast and probably performs better than some of the hardware in your local steakhouse. This grill has more bells and whistles than a fire truck: double-wall stainless-steel construction, dual side heaters, four grilling areas, griddle, rotisserie, smoker, professional-grade gas burners, chrome-plated warming rack and a whiz-bang infrared cooker to perfectly sear your two-inch-thick porterhouse—easily ensuring neighborhood bragging rights. From $4,000,
