The Best July 4 Grill and Griddle Deals: Weber, Traeger, Recteq

That said, the $100 price cut is the same on both sizes. So the best deal is definitely on the two-burner version, which is just $699 for the 4th of July weekend.

Note that although there is no sale, Traeger released a low-budget griddle line called the IronTop this year. I have been testing it and have found that the wind shielding is better than the more expensive version. The same applies for the stability of the pan’s legs. The cook plate is the same, but the simplified burner design means there are more noticeable hot spots, primarily toward the front of the pan above the burners. On trade, the 36-inch, 4-burner IronTop costs just $599.

Spirit E-210 Gas Grill

The Weber Spirit 200 series has been WIRED’s choice for years as the best gas grill for most people. It is simple, concise and economical. The temperature is even. The propane level is easy to adjust. Like a lot of Webers, the accessory and snap-on options are just as good, meaning you can create a great workbench. And for now, there’s a solid $50 off this already affordable Weber.

Slate Rust Proof Griddle

The Weber Slate series of pre-seasoned, rust-resistant pans may provide the best cooking experience of any pan I’ve tested, though the top-line Traeger still edges it on heat parity. The workstation is spacious, with a fold-down extension and a side table that can be tricked out with Weber’s full range of add-ons: a hangable storage bin ($42), a spice caddy ($25), you name it. The Slate line’s small 28-inch, three-burner model is one of the top griddle values ​​I’ve seen at the regular price. At $50 off, it’s absolutely fantastic.

Treasure Woodridge Pro at $1,000 ($150 off)

The Traeger Woodridge Pro (8/10, Wired Recommends) was Wired’s previous top-pick pellet grill, and it’s still a corker. The heat isn’t as dialed-in as the Rectec flagship 1600, and the app doesn’t offer as long a cooking history, but the Woodridge Pro may still be a better dollar-for-dollar value than the Rectec: At $150 off, it offers a penny less than four figures. The Woodridge Pro is easy to clean, can be dialed in quickly for the perfect rack of ribs, and is large enough to cook two pork bellies at the same time.
