Metro Series - Details
Metro Series

Overview

Designed primarily for apartments and condominiums, our Metro Series shines in areas with grilling restrictions. It's an electric BBQ grill that is a safe alternative to gas or charcoal -- moreover, the cuisine is healthier, more flavorful, and exceptionally juicy. Designed for smokeless grilling, it also doubles as a quality smoker. In the smokeless mode, it will not smoke up your apartment, the balcony, or the neighbors. By allowing you to cook with both levels simultaneously, the Metro Series maximizes grilling area (430 square inches) in a small package (28" wide by 24" deep - outside dimensions). It uses a standard 120V wall socket.

Details
The Metro Series is our space-efficient grill/oven/smoker appliance.  It has handles instead of shelves and a smaller body. The body and lid are made entirely of stainless steel, while the handles, legs, and lid-stops are powder-coated galvanneal.  Stainless steel, galvanneal, and powdercoat paint are all very durable materials and can withstand harsh outdoor envirnoments. You can leave these outside and cook on them year-round, or grill inside with less smoke than your oven. With the addition of a smoker tray and a few dry wood chips, these grills are also very capable smokers. (When smoking, use only outside or with a vent.)

The Metro Series grills include electronic controls with AutoChef™ technology, dishwasher-safe grates, dual cooking levels (you can cook on both levels simultaneously), large wheels, and disposable drip pans. High quality grill covers and smoker trays are also available.

Room-temperature preheat time is 10-13 minutes for normal cooking temperatures (300 to 350).  Note that preheating is only important when baking; we seldom preheat when grilling and never when smoking.  Because our insulated walls absorb and re-radiate thermal energy, you can briefly open the lid without losing much heat.

Except for our other models, these are the largest 120V grills -- even with one level. When using both levels, you have more grilling area (430 square inches) than many 240V grills (at a fraction of the cost).


Power Requirements
These grills draw approximately 12 amps at 120 volts for a total wattage of 1500 watts. They can use any standard 110 or 120V outlet.

Shipping and Assembly
The Metro grill comes in one box. We use FedEx Ground and ship for free in the continental US (a $100 value); you should have your grill in a week or less, depending on your location.

Assembly is relatively easy and takes about an hour (30 minutes if you are experienced). You will need basic tools, including a small and a medium Philips screwdriver, a 7/16 inch wrench, and a 5/16 inch nut driver.  

If you are in our area or you purchase from your local dealership, no assembly is required.
