Know before you buy
Yes, because this is a built-in natural gas unit, it must be installed into a non-combustible outdoor enclosure by a qualified professional to ensure proper gas line connection and ventilation.
The DiamondCut™ grates are laser-cut from stainless steel to provide more surface area for heat transfer. This design creates superior sear marks while ensuring more even heat distribution across your food.
The rotisserie motor is integrated directly into the grill body, keeping it out of sight for a cleaner aesthetic. It operates quietly and is designed to handle heavy cuts of meat while maintaining a consistent rotation.
The GABR36-NG model is specifically engineered for natural gas. If you do not have a natural gas line, you would need to look for the liquid propane version of this model, as they are not interchangeable.
The under-hood lighting is triggered automatically when you lift the grill lid, providing clear visibility of your cooking surface. This is particularly helpful for evening grilling sessions when ambient light is low.
The infrared top burner provides intense, direct heat that is ideal for finishing steaks, caramelizing glazes, or achieving a perfect crust on your food. It acts as a high-performance complement to the primary Trellis burners.
