Fire Magic Choice gas grills feature superior design and materials with a simple satin stainless steel facade. Featuring 648 square inches of cooking space, this 36-inch gas grill has patented Diamond Sear cooking grids with 304 stainless steel bars that have a smooth flat top, shaped to optimally transfer the heat from the burners to the cooking surface so food cooks faster and more evenly! The Flavor Grids are made of 16-gauge 304 stainless steel and allow heat to rise unobstructed from the burner to cooking grids. They disperse heat quickly and evenly flavor the food by vaporizing juices and minimizing flare ups. The three(3) tubular stainless steel U-shaped burners produce 69,000 BTUs of cooking power and are made of durable 16-gauge stainless steel. Lighting your grill is easy with the simple turn-to-light ignition system which does not require any power or batteries to operate. The large thermometer with polished stainless steel bezel is embedded in the double-lined hood and is angled forward for easy viewing. Opening the double-walled 304 stainless steel hood is smooth with the Teflon coated spring assist, and the hood opens 90-degrees for easy access and efficient exhaust.
