Instead of heating food directly by convection, the burners heat up a perforated sheet of stainless steel that generates infrared heat. Infrared heat is very intense, so it can cook food fast while still leaving it juicy, which is especially noticeable while cooking steaks.

This unit comes with a side cooker that can output up to 13,000 BTUs of heat, which can be used to cook side dishes at the same time the main grill is being used. It can also be used as a griddle.

While this grill isn’t much larger than other infrared grills, it offers a very generous cooking space. Its 525 square inches of cooking area allow you to cook as many as 32 burgers at once.

This unit is sold as a propane grill, but it can be converted for natural gas use.

The emitter vaporizes drippings from the meat instead of burning them, which makes the grill easy to clean.

This sturdy and resilient grill is built from thick stainless and perforated steel. The grates are made from heavy 12 mm hexagonal rods that are welded together.

The grill has heat zone dividers that allow you to do things like cooking a salmon and a stake simultaneously.

The grill comes bundled with a rotisserie kit. You can store the rotisserie rod and the designated hooks inside the grill when not in use. Additionally, it has an infrared burner.

The grill has built-in halogen lights which illuminate the grilling surface. The control knobs can also be illuminated. Keep in mind that this requires connection to the main AC network.

The heavy hexagonal-shaped grates provide decent heat retention and leave the food with beautiful-looking grill marks. Additionally, these thick grates allow for better caramelization of some foods.
