Details

The grill features a 3 stainless steel burner design, with each burner having an output of 10,000 BTU (for a total output of 30,000 BTU).  The cooking grate is made of porcelain coated steel (and can be upgraded to heavy duty stainless steel for an additional cost).  Other unique features of the grill are its even continuous workspace from side table to grill to sidetable and a slide-out hide-away propane tank drawer.  The grill comes standard with a removable condiment tray and plastic cutting board.  Construction is of powder coated stainless steel with a porcelain coated firebox.

The basic grill was designed to be customized by the end user and a number of accessories are available that can be purchased with the grill or added by the end user at a later date.  These include a side burner, bamboo cutting boards, an ice bin, a ceramic pizza stone, a pancake griddle and a patio heater. 

The grill works on standard 20 lb. liquid propane tanks and the manufacturer does sell a kit to convert the grill over to home natural gas.  A natural gas version of the grill is also available for a small upcharge.  The natural gas versions of the grill are not currently compatible with the optional side burner.
