463243812 specifications

The Char-Broil 463243812 is a noteworthy addition to the outdoor cooking landscape, designed for both novice and seasoned grill enthusiasts. This gas grill promises to deliver exceptional performance, versatility, and convenience, making it an attractive option for anyone looking to elevate their grilling experience.

One of the standout features of the Char-Broil 463243812 is its spacious cooking area. With a total cooking surface of 475 square inches, this grill provides ample space for preparing multiple dishes simultaneously. The main cooking area, which spans 360 square inches, is complemented by a swing-away warming rack that adds an additional 115 square inches. This thoughtful design ensures that food can be grilled, warmed, and served all at once, making it ideal for family gatherings or backyard barbecues.

The grill is equipped with four stainless steel burners, ensuring even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface. Each burner delivers 10,000 BTUs of cooking power, allowing for precise temperature control and versatility in cooking styles—whether grilling, searing, or creating indirect heat zones for slower cooking methods. The total BTU output of 40,000 enhances its capability to achieve high temperatures quickly, perfect for achieving that coveted sear on meats.

In terms of construction, the Char-Broil 463243812 boasts a durable, porcelain-coated steel lid and firebox designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor cooking. The lid also features an integrated temperature gauge, providing users with vital information for maintaining the desired cooking temperature. The stainless steel burners not only resist rust but also ensure longevity, reinforcing the grill's durability.

The innovative TRU-Infrared cooking system is a defining feature of this grill, allowing for consistent heat and preventing flare-ups—one of the common nuisances associated with gas grilling. This technology enhances moisture retention in food, resulting in juicier steaks, chicken, and vegetables. Additionally, the grill's infrared capabilities enable cooking in colder temperatures, extending the grilling season.

Convenience features such as the electronic ignition system make starting the grill effortless, while side shelves provide extra workspace for prep and serving. The wheels are designed for easy mobility, allowing users to move the grill around their backyard or patio with minimal effort.

The Char-Broil 463243812 combines thoughtful design, durable materials, and advanced grilling technology to cater to an array of outdoor cooking needs.
