All Things Barbecue is an authorized Blaze dealer that stocks the full built-in gas grill lineup, from compact three-burner models up to the 40-inch five-burner Premium LTE.
Choosing the right Blaze comes down to more than burner count. The common mistake is assuming every four-burner model is interchangeable, when a Premium LTE adds a rear infrared rotisserie burner, steps the grates up to 9mm, and brings interior and knob lighting a base Prelude doesn't have. Decide what you actually want to cook first, then let the features follow.
Our pick: The Blaze Grills Premium LTE 32" 4-Burner Gas BBQ Grill with Rear Burner and Built-In Lights is one of the brand's best sellers, pairing four 304-cast stainless burners and a 10,000 BTU rear infrared rotisserie burner for true self-basting rotisserie chicken and after-dark grilling.
Runner-up: Building a first outdoor kitchen on a sensible budget? The Blaze Grills Prelude LBM 25" 3-Burner Gas BBQ Grill delivers honest performance with 558 square inches of cooking surface and a residential lifetime warranty.
If rotisserie cooking or grilling after sundown matters to you, choose a Premium LTE over a Prelude; if you're entertaining double-digit crowds, step up to the 40-inch five-burner model.
If you're planning an outdoor kitchen and have landed on Blaze as your gas grill of choice, you've got good instincts—and you've come to the right place. All Things Barbecue is an authorized Blaze dealer, and we stock the Blaze built-in lineup from the compact 25-inch Prelude all the way up to the fully loaded 40-inch Premium LTE. This guide walks you through which Blaze built-in fits which cook, so by the end you'll know exactly which one belongs in your counter cutout. The decision worth slowing down for isn't just about burner count—it's about matching cooking area, heat output, and features like infrared rotisserie burners to how you actually feed a crowd.
What to look for when choosing a Blaze built-in grill
Built-in gas grills separate into tiers based on a handful of real specifications. Knowing what you're paying for keeps you from overbuying or coming up short on a grill that lives in your counter for the next decade.
Burner count and total BTUs. This is the engine. A British Thermal Unit (BTU) measures heat output, and more burners spread across more cooking area generally means more BTUs and more flexibility for zone cooking. Entry-tier Blaze built-ins run three burners; step up and you add a fourth or fifth, plus the horsepower to run them all at once.
Cooking surface area. Measured in square inches, this tells you how many steaks, burgers, or racks you can run at a time. There's a meaningful jump between a grill sized for weeknight dinners and one built to host the whole neighborhood.
Grate thickness and material. Heavier stainless rod grates hold heat better and lay down the kind of sear marks that make backyard steaks look like steakhouse steaks. Blaze uses 304-grade stainless across its built-ins, with grate thickness stepping up as you move through the lineup.
Rotisserie and lighting. A rear infrared burner unlocks true rotisserie cooking—think a self-basting whole chicken or a prime rib turning low and slow. Interior lighting and illuminated knobs matter more than you'd guess once you're flipping burgers after sundown.
Our picks
Best starting point: Blaze Grills Prelude LBM 25" 3-Burner Gas BBQ Grill (around $1,500). This one's for the cook building a first outdoor kitchen or working with a tighter counter run who still wants real, built-to-last construction. It packs three 304-stainless steel tube burners producing a combined 42,000 BTUs across 558 square inches of main cooking surface, and it carries a lifetime warranty for residential use. The 8mm stainless rod grates give you solid heat retention without stepping up to the premium price.
The sweet-spot upgrade: Blaze Grills Prelude LBM 32" 4-Burner Gas BBQ Grill (around $1,750). If you regularly cook for a family plus guests, the extra burner earns its keep. This model stretches to 740 square inches of main cooking space and 56,000 total BTUs, which gives you room to run a true high-heat zone on one side while keeping a lower, gentler zone going on the other. For many backyards, this is the Goldilocks Blaze—plenty of grill, without jumping to rotisserie-tier pricing.
Customer favorite with the full feature set: Blaze Grills Premium LTE 32" 4-Burner Gas BBQ Grill with Rear Burner and Built-In Lights (around $2,099). This is the Blaze built-in that keeps finding its way into carts, and it's easy to see why—it's one of the brand's best sellers. You get four 304-cast stainless burners plus a 10,000 BTU rear infrared rotisserie burner for 66,000 BTUs total, beefier 9mm triangular stainless rod grates, interior halogen lighting, and LED-illuminated knobs. For the cook who wants rotisserie chicken, late-evening grilling, and premium build without going to the largest footprint, this is the one.
The entertainer's grill: Blaze Grills Premium LTE 40" 5-Burner Gas BBQ Grill with Rear Burner & Built-In Lights (around $2,599). When your gatherings routinely push into double digits, this is where you want to land. Five 304-cast stainless burners and the rear infrared rotisserie burner deliver 80,000 BTUs across a generous 915 square inches of main cooking surface. That's enough real estate to sear a round of steaks, toast buns, and keep sides warm all at once, with the same 9mm grates and built-in lighting as its 32-inch sibling. This is the grill that makes your neighbors start showing up uninvited.
Worth noting: all of these are freight items delivered straight to you, and the natural gas versions don't include a hose, so you'll want to add the Blaze NG hose if you're plumbing to a gas line.
What most guides get wrong
The common mistake is shopping burner count alone and assuming every four-burner grill is interchangeable. It isn't. A Prelude 4-burner and a Premium LTE 4-burner both have four main burners, but the LTE adds a rear infrared rotisserie burner, steps the grates up from 8mm to 9mm, and brings interior and knob lighting into the picture. If you've got your heart set on rotisserie cooking or you grill after dark more than you'd admit, those differences are the whole ballgame—and they're invisible if you're only counting burners on a spec sheet. Decide what you actually want to cook first, then let the features follow.
The recommendation
Building your first outdoor kitchen on a sensible budget? The Prelude 25" 3-Burner gives you honest performance and a lifetime warranty. Cooking for a family that likes to host? The Prelude 32" 4-Burner is the practical pick. Want the rotisserie, the lighting, and the heavier grates in a popular, proven package? Go with the Premium LTE 32" 4-Burner. And if you're the designated cook for the whole crew, the Premium LTE 40" 5-Burner gives you the surface and the firepower to pull it off.
