The Grill Works

"Your Grilling Headquarters"

About Us

The Grill Works, proudly owned by Brian and Lisa Gilliatt in Marion, Iowa, has been a cornerstone for grill enthusiasts since 2000. Our journey began at home, servicing Charmglow Natural Gas Grills from the 60s and 70s. In 2009, an exciting opportunity arose—to acquire a Chicago-based distributorship, furthering its 50-year legacy as a supplier of replacement grill parts to hardware stores nationwide. In May 2010, we opened our Marion storefront, transforming our passion into a thriving business. Family-driven and community-focused, The Grill Works is committed to excellence and customer satisfaction. Our heartfelt thanks go to our community for their steadfast support as a locally owned enterprise. Together with our family—both by blood and by bond—we look forward to sharing our love for grilling with even more enthusiasts as we continue to grow.

Testimonials

On 2/21/2025 Forrest Wandling had this to say:
I love this store. The owners, Lisa and Brian are so friendly and knowledgeable. They and any of the employees can recommend sauces or seasonings/rubs to suit anyone's taste buds. You can't go wrong here. Pellet grill, stick burner, charcoal, gas or even just in the kitchen. Whatever you prefer, they can help you up your cooking game.

As soon as I walked in, staff said hello and came over to talk. The staff were very helpful. The first thing I noticed was that they offered taste tests of all the spices, rubs, and other products. In my opinion, this is a great service. I just got into pellet smoking, and when I told a staff member, he gave me helpful advice and recommendations on spices and rubs. I did not feel pressured to buy anything, and they did not make me feel foolish for not knowing things. The products are reasonably priced, and there is a very wide selection. I would recommend anyone go to this store.
