Encore 36" Grill - NG

Experience dual-fuel flexibility with the Encore 36" Hybrid Grill, designed to operate efficiently on connected natural gas lines or solid charcoal while delivering 110,000 total BTUs across 1,106 square inches of primary cooking surface. Engineered for dedicated outdoor kitchen layouts and high-volume weekend entertaining, this model relies on 14-gauge #304 stainless steel main burners, matched burner covers, and patented 14-gauge fuel trays to maintain consistent thermal distribution and accelerate ash clearance.

Precision climate management is standard across the enclosure. Adjustable overhead hood vents pair with internal heat zone separators to isolate direct-sear and indirect-roast compartments, while the 16-gauge double-lined lid utilizes a spring-assist hinge for balanced, one-handed operation. Reversible 9-gauge V-shaped grates toggle instantly between aggressive cross-hatching patterns and flat conduction surfaces, and Flame Thrower Ignition guarantees reliable startup in varying ambient temperatures. These specifications position the unit as a practical foundation for Grills, Grill Islands and Outdoor Kitchen Appliances.

Maintenance and low-light usability are handled through deliberate mechanical layout. An easy-clean catch pan funnels grease straight to an internal drain system, removing manual scraping after sustained high-heat cycles. Interior halogen cooking lights illuminate the entire grate area, while dedicated LED indicators over each control knob eliminate dial-checking guesswork. Enclosed storage sections accommodate a full-length rotisserie spit, extending daily meal options without cluttering adjacent prep stations.

Every chassis is fabricated, assembled, and factory-tested in the United States, verified against ANSI Z21.58 and CGA 1.6 pressure and gas appliance standards. The 395-pound mass anchors securely during peak BTU output, reflecting the structural philosophy behind American Made Grills. When modular fuel switching, commercial-grade fabrication, and straightforward service access converge, this package delivers immediate culinary utility.
