Roadhog knows not only the craft of the grill, but he is also the type to intricately smoke the meat for days beforehand. Like, as in, the "get up at 3 in the morning to rotate the meat in the smoker" kind of dedicated.

Grilling is like Soldier 76's one expressive hobby ever, so yeah, you'd better believe he's earned the title

Ashe was initially too much of a control freak to let anyone else on the grill during the Deadlock grill nights, and slowly taught herself how to actually do it well. Which is something that gives her far more self-assurance than she thinks it should, and she will kill you if you somehow learn of this.

Junker Queen's cookouts are the stuff of legends in Junker Town. She throws a big one on the anniversary of her coronation.

Sierra's dad passed down the family habanero barbecue sauce recipe. This is combined with her having many fond memories of setting up with charcoal on one of those lil free grills in the park while with her mom. You bet your ass she's a pro

Hazard wears a big "kiss the chef" apron as he mans the grill for the Phreaks. The apron is an open invitation, by the way.

Ana was and still is a shit cook, but during her stint in Junkertown she got grilling lessons from Roadhog. A grilling lesson from Roadhog is enough to make anyone a grill god

Moira just finds the whole process embarrassingly easy. Cooking flesh is cooking flesh, no matter what kind of flesh it is.

Mauga knows what's up. Simple as that. He prefers skewers over steaks

Torbjorn and his torblings (Brigitte, Mercy, Bastion) all know how to work a grill pretty damn good. Torbjorn's preferred craft is baking (and his wife is the household grill god) but he'll be damned if he don't know how to work grill!! And he'll be damned if his kids don't!!!

Cass took notes from Morrison back in the day- it's like the one activity they ever willingly did together

Hanzo learned how to cook over an open flame and finds having an actual grill to be easy mode. Doesn't eat meat all that often but when he does, you bet your ass he handles it slowly and methodically, like the perfectionist he is.

Winston also picked up the skill from Morrison back in the day, in a deliberate bid to spend time with him.

Zarya grilled for her regiment. Has a ratty old "kiss the chef" apron with a cartoonish six pack that she got from a sister for christmas.

Grilling is one of the many skills Sojourn picked up in retirement, and she enjoys manning the grill for community events where she lives, especially veteran fundraisers.

Echo imitates Ana's grilling skill. Until Sierra showed up, and Echo switched her technique. Ana is still pissed about this by the way

Next two tiers are pretty self explanatory I think

Emre COULD be a decent griller but his OCD about food safety makes him cook everything as well done. . . he has ruined a few nice steaks this way.

In 'burns the food' category, both Reaper and Ramattra know how to grill properly, but they burn the food to spite people.

Now onto the veggie burger tier:

Lifeweaver is vegan and hand-designs his veggie burgers. They're the stuff of legends. He can make them either perfect meat imitations, or their own style of dish

Zenyatta cooks without meat so that his dishes are more accessible! Very common for monks of all kinds, and he's a proud continuer of that tradition. He grills for charity events.

Moving on to BANNED FROM THE GRILL:

We all know why Junkrat is banned from the grill. Man sees a tank of propane and is physically incapable of stopping himself

Lucio is banned from the grill because he tried to "roast starbursts" and melted candy alllllll over the watchpoint grill. Winston was PISSED. Lucio's lucky Soldier 76 wasn't there or he might've genuinely been slapped

Reinhardt is banned because he gets distracted too easily. He not only burns the food, he starts fires without meaning to

Kiriko is banned for donut-related crimes

Domina is banned because she tried grilling once, had a mental health spiral about being bad at it, and impulse-fired a few hundred minimum-wage employees during the crashout.
