Bull Outlaw 30-Inch 4-Burner Drop-In Grill Head
Bull's entry drop-in head and the cheapest way into a name-brand outdoor kitchen. Four welded stainless burners make 60,000 BTU across 575 square inches, with solid stainless grates, piezo ignition and NSF/CSA commercial certification. The $1,819 MSRP Bull publishes is for the GRILL HEAD ONLY — no cart, no doors, no island. Against the Angus above it, the Outlaw gives up the infrared back burner, the interior lighting and the lifetime cast-burner warranty.
Goes to the manufacturer. We earn nothing on this one.
Specifications
Pros
- ✓Under $1,900 for a 304 stainless drop-in head from an established brand, which is the floor for this category
- ✓NSF and CSA commercial certification is unusual at this price and matters for permitted installs
- ✓Solid stainless grates rather than the porcelain-coated steel most sub-$2,000 grills ship with
- ✓Same 575 sq in primary surface as the far pricier Angus — you are paying up for features, not space
- ✓Simple piezo ignition with no electronics to fail outdoors
Cons
- ✗Welded burners get 5 years, not the lifetime coverage Bull's cast-burner models carry — the single biggest reason to step up
- ✗No back burner, so no rotisserie without changing grills
- ✗No interior lights; Bull reserves those for Angus and above
- ✗Head only — the finished island typically costs more than the grill

Bull's mid-tier flagship and the model the brand rebuilt for 2026 with a new hood profile, knurled handle and black-backed gauge. Four cast stainless burners at 15,000 BTU each plus a 15,000 BTU infrared back burner total 75,000 BTU — more output than any 30-inch competitor at the price. Bull's published $2,959 MSRP is the DROP-IN HEAD ONLY; the Angus Complete Cart is a separate, more expensive SKU. The cast burners are what buy you Bull's lifetime warranty, which the welded-burner Outlaw does not get.
The 38-inch step up from the Angus and Bull's highest-volume premium head. Five cast stainless burners plus an infrared back burner make 90,000 BTU across 943 square inches total — 720 primary and a 223 square inch warming rack. Bull's $3,939 MSRP covers the DROP-IN HEAD ONLY. Worth knowing before you buy: Bull has stopped bundling the rotisserie kit with these models, so the spit and motor that older reviews describe as included are now a separate accessory.
Broil King
Broil King Regal S590 Pro
The Broil King Regal S590 Pro is a North American-made 5-burner stainless gas grill with massive 9mm solid rod grates, dual-tube burners, a side burner, and a rear rotisserie burner with kit. It's the long-time owners' alternative to a Weber Genesis.
Napoleon
Napoleon Prestige 500
The Napoleon Prestige 500 RSIB is a full stainless 4-burner gas grill with an infrared Sizzle Zone side burner, an infrared rear rotisserie burner, and an included rotisserie kit. It's the step-up-from-Weber recommendation in owner discussions. Note: this model is no longer sold new as of 2026. Its current equivalent is the Napoleon Prestige 500 RSIB (2025 generation, from $2,099).
Summerset's value built-in and the one genuinely unusual grill in this group: it needs no electrical power at all, using piezo ignition with a manual flash-tube backup. That makes it the default choice for apartment complexes, rentals and any island where running power is impractical — Summerset markets it explicitly for multi-family and commercial use. Four #304 stainless tube burners at 12,000 BTU each make 48,000 BTU across 696 total square inches under 8mm round grates. Price is the BUILT-IN HEAD ONLY (SZR32) at BBQGuys; Summerset publishes no prices and sells through dealers.
Broil King's built-in answer, and the only black built-in head in this group — the Shadow finish is matte black rather than the universal brushed stainless, which matters if your island is dark stone. Five Dual-Tube burners make 45,000 BTU across 569 square inches of primary space, with a 15,000 BTU rear rotisserie burner and, unusually at this price, the premium rotisserie kit included rather than sold separately. Price is for the 32-inch BUILT-IN HEAD. The Flav-R-Wave system vaporizes drippings on 304 stainless rather than using ceramic briquettes or sheet-metal tamers.
