C-Line Charcoal Grill 840

Large-capacity value charcoal grill with 840 sq in of total cooking area across primary and warming grates.

$220Approx. MSRP

Good for someone who wants a big-capacity charcoal grill for cookouts on a budget, but expect to babysit the ash pan and plan charcoal refills before you start cooking, not mid-cook.

Pros

  • 840 sq in of cooking space handles up to 35 burgers or 12 steaks at once
  • 4-level adjustable charcoal tray gives real temperature control
  • Oil-coated cast iron grates resist rust better than uncoated versions
  • Loads of cooking room — 840 sq in feeds a crowd
  • Easy on the wallet ($220)

Watch-outs

  • Feels flimsy to move once assembled
  • No side door to add charcoal mid-cook — you have to lift the grate/food off
  • Ash pan quality is a weak point relative to the rest of the grill
  • Charcoal means a learning curve vs push-button gas

Known niggles

  • Thin-metal ash/charcoal pan warping from heat after just one use, reported by some owners
  • Some units arrive with damaged or misaligned parts
