I have the two burner Weber gas grill which is around $300-$400. If you go cheaper than that, the grill will detioriate after a couple years. 3 and 4 burners cost a lot for the good ones IMO. The smaller two burner grill will heat up faster which is good in winter. You want a grill with a tempearature gauge built in to the hood.
Here are some tips:
1 be quick when you have the lid open.
2 when it is really cold and the grill won't heat up more than around 400, grill chicken and not steak.
3 wind is your enemy more than cold if the grill is exposed
You don't get the charcoal flavor with the gas grill, but you do get a lot more control over the temperature, so it is a trade-off ( unless you are a charcoal Jedi master)
I grill a lot in cold temperatures.

Wow, this man knows what he's talking about. I usually don't grill in the winter but these are some great points.
