It’s Tough to Beat BBQ Cooked on a USA-Made Charcoal Grill

There are few things I like more about the warmer part of the year than cooking on a BBQ (and then eating the results, of course). It’s right up there with mowing the lawn for me. If you’re on the lookout for a new charcoal grill made in the USA, check the list of companies below.

Hasty Bake

Hasty Bake have been manufacturing charcoal grills in Tulsa, OK ever since Grant Hastings produced the first one in 1948. They offer several different models and have been at the forefront of the industry for decades.

Americana Grills are by far the cheapest option on this list and are a great solution if you’re not looking for a “serious” grilling setup.

Moss Grills are made in the USA by US Veterans. Fred Moss started the company after retiring from the US Navy and the first grill he built was just for his own personal use. Friends, family and neighbors who saw his grill asked him to make grills for them and the company was born. His grills are made from barrels and numerous celebrities have become customers, including Whoopi Goldberg, Tony Hawk and George Clinton.
