Outdoor BBQ Grills

Choosing a grill or designing an outdoor kitchen is one of the higher-stakes home decisions a homeowner makes — premium built-in grills run $5,000 to $25,000, and a full outdoor kitchen build can easily clear $50,000. The brand catalogs below let you compare specs, see room-scale photography, and request literature before you commit, instead of relying on showroom floors that rarely carry the full lineup.

Grill Categories at a Glance

Built-in luxury gas grills — Hestan, Kalamazoo, Lynx, DCS, Twin Eagles, Wolf, Viking, Coyote, Alfresco, Fire Magic, and Blaze are the brands that design grills to be dropped into a stone or stainless outdoor kitchen island. Construction is heavy-gauge 304 stainless, burners are typically 25,000+ BTU per zone, and grates are stainless rod or cast iron. The catalogs in this category show full outdoor-kitchen suites, side burners, refrigeration, pizza ovens, and warming drawers from the same brand families.

Mass-premium portable and freestanding — Weber, Napoleon, Bull, AOG, Summerset, and Broil King cover the $1,000–$4,000 freestanding category where you want a real backyard grill without committing to a built-in kitchen. Most of these brands also publish portable and travel-friendly models.

Ceramic kamado grills — Big Green Egg, Kamado Joe, Primo, and Komodo Kamado are the ceramic-walled grills that excel at long, low-and-slow smoking and high-temperature searing in the same body. Catalogs in this category include the full size range and the deep accessory ecosystem (rotisseries, baking stones, deflectors).

Pellet grills and smokers — Traeger, Memphis, Yoder, Pit Boss, Recteq, Green Mountain, and MAK are wood-pellet grills with automated temperature control. Pellet grills give you authentic wood-fired flavor with set-and-forget convenience — they're the fastest-growing grill category for a reason.

Outdoor pizza ovens — Ooni, Gozney, Alfa Forni, Forno Bravo, and Bertello bring restaurant-temperature (700–950°F) pizza cooking to the backyard. Catalogs cover gas, wood-fired, multi-fuel, and dedicated wood-burning installations.

What to Look For in a Grill Catalog

The most useful catalogs spell out burner BTU ratings (look for at least 18,000–25,000 BTU per primary burner), grate material (cast stainless rod cooks more evenly than thin tubular stainless), cooking-surface dimensions in square inches (a family of four typically wants 500+ sq in primary grilling area), and fuel type with conversion options if you might switch between natural gas and propane. For built-in grills, also check cutout dimensions and ventilation requirements before you spec a counter.

Designing an Outdoor Kitchen

If you're planning a full outdoor kitchen — grill plus side burner plus refrigeration plus storage — request catalogs from at least three brands that publish full component lineups: Hestan, Lynx, Kalamazoo, DCS, Twin Eagles, Coyote, Bull, Summerset, Alfresco, and Blaze all design matched components so doors, drawers, and refrigeration share the same handle and finish. Catalogs typically include suggested layouts, ventilation diagrams, and minimum clearances for combustible materials.

Free Outdoor BBQ Grill Catalogs by Mail

Most of the catalogs below are mailed free to homeowners and contractors. Brochures from premium brands like Hestan, Kalamazoo, Lynx, and Sub-Zero/Wolf are particularly worth requesting in print — large-format photography and full product specs are easier to compare on paper than a phone screen, and the dealer network can use the catalog edition to confirm pricing.
