Turn yesterday's leftover macaroni into today's crispy, golden side dish with this easy wood-fired recipe.
When you search for the best outdoor BBQ grill store in Jackson, the instinct is to head straight to a showroom. But the brick-and-mortar route usually means paying for someone else's rent, staff, and floor space before you ever get to the grill itself. Showroom overhead gets baked into the price tag. Buying an Arteflame online skips that entirely — you get a premium, American-made grill delivered straight to your driveway in Jackson, often for less than a comparable unit at a local dealer. It isn't just about convenience; it's about what you actually get for your money.
Finding the right grill is about balancing performance, durability, and price. Here are the main ways Jackson-area shoppers actually buy a grill.
Grills of Mississippi (Ridgeland Showroom)
If you want to see and touch grills before buying, Grills of Mississippi in Ridgeland — just north of Jackson off Highway 51 — is the region's dedicated grill and outdoor-living specialist, with live demos and a real showroom floor. It's a better stop than a general appliance store if you want hands-on comparison shopping, though a specialty shop's pricing still reflects its overhead.
Cowboy Maloney's Home Store (Appliance Retailer)
A Jackson institution on I-55 N, Cowboy Maloney's carries Napoleon BBQ grills alongside its major appliance lineup. It's a convenient one-stop option if you're already shopping for a refrigerator or range and want to add a grill to the cart, but the selection skews toward mainstream gas grills rather than anything built for restaurant-level searing.
Arteflame (Online Webshop)
This isn't a gas grill with grates — it's a solid steel flat-top cooktop that doubles as a fire pit. Buying through the webshop means you get the current model with full manufacturer support, no salesperson steering you toward whatever's overstocked, and shipping handled straight to your door in Jackson.
| Store / Method | Price Value | Selection | Experience |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grills of Mississippi (Ridgeland) | Medium (Specialty Markup) | Grill-Focused Floor Space | Traditional Gas/Charcoal, Hands-On |
| Cowboy Maloney's / Big Box | Low-Medium (Mass Market) | Mainstream Brands | Standard Backyard BBQ |
| Arteflame.com (Online) | Direct, no markup | Full Inventory | Solid Steel Searing & Social Grilling |
Open grates let heat dissipate between the bars, so meat tends to steam rather than sear; a solid steel cooking surface holds enough heat to trigger the Maillard reaction and produce a true crust.
You don't need a steakhouse reservation in Jackson to get that kind of crust. With the right equipment, you can get professional results in your own backyard.
The Arteflame works because it's built around a carbon steel cooktop that reaches temperatures a standard wire grate simply can't touch.
Pro Tip: Stocking up for a crowd? The Costco in nearby Ridgeland, just off Highland Colony Parkway near I-55, is the closest wholesale option to Jackson for prime cuts in bulk.
An Arteflame grill doesn't just cook food — it changes how you host. With a traditional grill, the cook is usually stuck against a wall or off in a corner, cut off from the party. The Arteflame's round design puts everyone around the fire, drink in hand, actually part of the experience instead of waiting on the patio while you cook alone. It turns meal prep into something everyone's in on.
