Grammy Award alla miglior interpretazione metal

Il Grammy Award alla miglior interpretazione metal (Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance) è un premio dei Grammy Awards istituito nel 1990, per premiare le migliori canzoni del genere heavy metal, e quelle che in parte lo incorporano.

Tra il 1992 e il 1994 ha cambiato temporaneamente nome in Best Metal Performance With Vocal.

Il premio è stato interrotto nel 2012 a causa di un'importante revisione delle categorie Grammy. Dopo il 2012, le interpretazioni metal sono state spostate nella categoria Migliore interpretazione hard rock/metal. Tuttavia, nel 2014, la categoria è stata divisa, ricostituendo la categoria Miglior interpretazione metal e creando la categoria Miglior interpretazione rock.
