The more BTUs the more 'powerful' the grill will cook. It’s a measure of the energy the grill produces. The more BTUs the more ‘powerful’ the grill will cook.

Basically, the higher the BTU the faster you will be able to cook your meats. If you have a large grilling surface area but not enough BTU's then you will waste a lot of gas trying to get your food cooked. And on the other side, if you have too small of a grilling surface with too high of a BTU rating then you will have a hard time not burning your food.
