Grill Shut-Off Timers Promote Safety and Convenience

Ever wondered what happens when someone steps away from the grill and forgets to turn off the gas? At best, it’s wasteful; at worst, it’s dangerous. That’s why a grill timer is a standard feature on all PGS T-Series commercial grills and is also available as an optional add-on for other models. This simple yet effective device ensures peace of mind during those busy backyard gatherings.

Gas Shut-Off Grill Timers

These timers are sometimes referred to as fuel safety shutoffs or automatic shut-off valves. In PGS grills, it’s called the FuelStop®. It automatically halts the gas supply after an hour of continuous operation, ensuring no one has to stress about remembering to flip the switch. No more unnecessary gas consumption, no lingering flames, and no risk of gas buildup in case the fire goes out unexpectedly. The timer is essentially a dial that can be adjusted up to 60 minutes. If your cooking requires more time, simply reset it whenever needed.

This feature is particularly popular among property managers at apartment complexes and condominiums. With multiple residents using the same natural gas grill, it’s reassuring to know that forgetfulness won’t lead to accidents. Instead, the timer takes care of the responsibility, preventing any mishaps caused by absent-mindedness.

A barbecue should be enjoyable—not stressful. With a shut-off timer, you can relax knowing the grill will manage itself. For the PGS T-Series commercial grills, this function comes built into the control panel. Easy to adjust and reliable, it ensures the gas stops flowing once the timer expires. Homeowners with PGS residential grills can opt to install the shut-off timer as an accessory.

Additional Grill Accessories

There’s something magical about firing up the grill and bringing people together. Few appliances generate as much joy as an outdoor barbecue. Whether you're hosting a casual get-together or a formal gathering, a top-tier grill enhances the experience. While basic grilling—burgers, steaks, and the like—is always satisfying, a well-equipped grill opens up endless possibilities. From veggies to kabobs to even desserts, creativity knows no bounds with the right tools.

To truly excel in your culinary adventures, you need the proper gear. PGS natural gas grills come with a wide array of accessories to tailor your grilling experience. Imagine having everything you need right at your fingertips, allowing you to create unforgettable meals. Brushes, tongs, spatulas—all built to withstand the rigors of regular use—are essential additions. A side burner lets you prepare side dishes without stepping indoors, while storage drawers and shelves provide ample space for ingredients and utensils. "Moon Rok" briquettes ensure consistent heat distribution, eliminating hotspots. Finally, a durable cover protects your investment from the elements when not in use.

For those looking to elevate their grilling game further, there are some standout accessories worth considering.

Lift-Assist Grill Handle

Opening and closing the grill lid is typically straightforward for most users. However, what if you're standing to one side and need to reach over the hot surface? Or perhaps you're recovering from an injury or using a wheelchair? The lift-assist grill handle addresses these challenges by making the process effortless.

Designed exclusively for PGS grills, this handle sits alongside the cover and features a comfortable grip. Simply grasp it and give it a gentle twist—no more struggling to lift heavy lids. Unlike traditional handles, which spring upward, the lift-assist remains accessible until the lid is fully opened. Even without physical limitations, this accessory simplifies the grilling process, allowing you to focus on what matters most: the food and company.

Infrared Rotisserie Burner

Expanding your repertoire beyond traditional grilling methods adds flair and versatility to your cooking. One of the best ways to achieve this is by incorporating infrared heat. Most grilling relies on direct flame heat, where the flames burn and the food cooks accordingly. An infrared rotisserie burner, however, uses advanced technology to produce intense heat that can be precisely controlled.

Infrared heats up rapidly and seals in juices beautifully, making it perfect for thicker cuts. When paired with a rotisserie mechanism, you can slowly roast meats like roasts, whole chickens, or veggie baskets. Compared to conventional flame burners, infrared systems are far more energy-efficient, reducing gas usage significantly.

Many chefs who incorporate infrared rotisseries find themselves alternating between radiant and flame heat based on the occasion. Offering guests a choice between rotisserie chicken or classic grilled burgers caters to diverse preferences, keeping everyone happy.

Grill Island

Mounting options for grills vary widely, ranging from portable carts to custom-built countertops. If space constraints prevent installing a built-in patio grill, a grill island offers similar flexibility. Collaborating with Gensun, PGS provides prefabricated grill islands tailored for optimal performance.

Equipped with spacious side shelves and generous storage beneath (in the form of cabinets and drawers), a grill island creates a dedicated workspace. Whether chopping, cooking, or plating, everything happens seamlessly in this outdoor kitchen setting. Preparing meals becomes less chaotic thanks to abundant storage and preparation areas.
