Bull Stallion vs Outlaw: Which Bull Grill Should You Buy?
The Stallion and Outlaw are two of Bull's most-cross-shopped built-in lines in the $1,500–$2,300 range. Same 304-stainless cookbox, same lifetime warranty, different burner platform and finishing details. Here's where the Stallion's premium shows up in actual cooking performance.

Bull Stallion
Bull's mid-tier 304-stainless built-in — 90,000 BTU on the 30-inch 4-burner, cast stainless burners, 810 sq in primary cooking surface, integrated ceramic flame tamers, electronic ignition. $1,900–$2,300 depending on size.
Buy this if:
- You want Bull's mid-tier build at $1,900–$2,300
- 4-burner layout and 810 sq in cooking surface matters for larger cooks
- Ceramic flame tamers (even heat distribution) are a deciding feature
- You want Bull quality without stepping up to Angus or Brahma
Bull Outlaw
Bull's entry-tier 304-stainless built-in — 60,000 BTU on the 30-inch 4-burner, cast stainless burners, 810 sq in primary cooking surface, stainless flame tamers, piezo ignition. $1,500–$1,900 depending on size.
Buy this if:
- You want Bull's lowest-cost 4-burner at $1,500–$1,900
- Backup piezo ignition is fine (vs electronic on Stallion)
- 60,000 BTU is adequate for your cooking volume
- Save $400–$800 vs Stallion for other kitchen components

Our Dealer-Side Verdict
For most buyers, the Stallion is worth the $400–$800 premium — the 90,000 BTU puts it in true premium performance territory, ceramic flame tamers meaningfully improve heat evenness, and the included rotisserie + internal lights add $300+ of accessory value. The Outlaw is the right pick only if budget is tight AND you don't rotisserie — in that scenario its 60,000 BTU and 810 sq in matches the Stallion's cooking surface for raw area, and you still get Bull's lifetime cookbox warranty. If the gap is less than $500 at your dealer, buy the Stallion.
Frequently Asked
What's the main difference between the Bull Stallion and Outlaw?
Burner output (90k vs 60k BTU), flame tamer material (ceramic vs stainless), ignition type (electronic vs piezo), and included accessories (Stallion ships with rotisserie + lights, Outlaw does not). Both share the same 304-stainless cookbox and 810 sq in cooking surface.
Is the Stallion's electronic ignition worth it over the Outlaw's piezo?
Yes for most buyers — electronic push-button ignition is more reliable and faster to light, especially at low temperatures or after rain. The piezo system on the Outlaw is mechanical (no battery) which is a reliability win for extremely cold climates but requires harder clicking in sub-freezing weather.
Can the Outlaw match the Stallion's cooking performance?
For low-and-slow and medium cooking, yes — both have 810 sq in cooking surface and the same cookbox. For high-heat searing and large cook volume, no — the Stallion's 90,000 BTU gives a 50% larger heat budget which translates to faster preheat, better recovery after lid opens, and more consistent high-temp performance.
Does the Outlaw come with a rotisserie?
No — the rotisserie motor, rod, and fork are sold separately for the Outlaw ($200–$300 add-on). The Stallion ships with the full rotisserie kit included. If you plan to rotisserie, factor the add-on cost into the Outlaw price comparison.
Which Bull line is a step up from the Stallion?
The Angus (3-burner, $2,500–$3,000) and Brahma (4-burner with searing station, $3,000–$3,500) are the next tiers. Both add dedicated infrared searing burners, higher-grade stainless (304 throughout + heavier gauge), and expanded warranty on electronics. The Diablo (6-burner, $5,000+) is the flagship.
