Gas

Gas grills require a constant supply of gas, either you can use a natural gas line provided by your local service company, or you can use a propane gas stored in a bottle. Chances are natural gas may not be available in your areas. But a portable propane gas bottle is a convenient option. 

Charcoal

Charcoal grills are lightweight and easy to assemble. They are the most convenient and cost-effective options for those who love to grill with the smoky taste of charcoal. You can control the heat with the amount of charcoal you place in the chamber, and a wheel will regulate the airflow. As the airflow increases, it will allow the charcoal to burn at a higher temperature.

Electric

The electric grills do not have open flames; they use a principle of the hot coils for heat. When the current passes through the loop, it resists the flow of current. As a result, it becomes warm and started to glow. You need to plug in into an electrical socket, and you are ready to go.

Pellet

Pellet grills don't use the charcoal, but still, add a rich and smoky wood flavor to your food. They use hardwood pellets as a fuel that heat's up as quickly as gas grills. However, they require electric current to ignite the pellets. To do that, you need to plug in into an electrical socket, and rest depends on the number of pellets you use to control the heat.
