Solaire gas grills have a unique cooking system. Instead of using briquettes for lava rock as a convection heat source, Solaire gas grills use radiant infrared heat to cook the food. This is the same cooking technology that is used in the finest steak houses, so the great taste of professional grills is available in your own backyard.

Most gas grills on the market today cook by convection. There are several disadvantages to this method. The hood must be closed in order to raise the temperature of the cooking area, and whenever the hood is opened the temperature quickly drops. The food is cooked by the heated air, and this results in dried out food.

Solaire gas grills on the other hand, are specially designed to produce high temperature, radiant heat. The hood on Solaire gas grills can be left open because the heating elements are cooking the food rather than the heated air. The intense heat of the infrared burner seers the outside of the food, locking in taste and moisture. The result is succulent, flavorful food which cooks in a fraction of the time of traditional gas grills.

There are several ...
