HOW DOES THE STEAK MASTER WORK

In the Infrared Grill, the gas passes through the gas tube into the ceramic element burner. The Infrared Grill produces around 800°C/ 1500°F of intense heat in close proximity to the ceramic burner. The intense heat seals the surface of the meat very quickly, sealing in the moisture. This prevents the meat from drying out (unlike other more conventional cooking methods) and creates a caramelizing effect on the meat and gives meat a unique taste.

The Infrared Grill has been designed to cook high quality cuts of meat. However, it is also can be used to cook fish, chicken and vegetables. Please note that the Infrared Grill is not designed to cater for large groups like a standard BBQ. It is better suited to outdoor fine dining for a smaller number of people where food can be selectively prepared.
