Grill Shut-Off Timers Promote Safety and Convenience

Imagine leaving the gas grill on while you're busy entertaining guests or taking a call. At best, it’s a waste of resources and money. At worst, it poses a serious safety hazard. That’s why a grill timer is a standard feature on all PGS T-Series commercial grills and can be added as an option to other PGS models.

Gas Shut-Off Grill Timers

Sometimes referred to as shut-off grill timers, fuel safety shutoffs, or automatic shut-off valves, in a PGS grill, it’s called a FuelStop®. This ingenious device automatically stops the gas flow and turns off the grill after an hour of operation. No need to stress about whether you or a guest remembered to turn off the gas valve. The grill takes care of it for you. There won't be a situation where gas keeps running, wasting money and potentially causing a dangerous situation with an unattended flame or gas buildup if the fire goes out.

The gas flow shut-off timer is controlled by a simple dial that can be set for up to 60 minutes. If your meal requires more time, simply adjust the dial again mid-cooking.

This feature is particularly popular among property managers at apartment complexes and condominiums, where many residents use natural gas grills. It eliminates the need for constant patrols to ensure all grills are turned off. If a forgetful resident neglects to shut off the gas, the shut-off timer will step in and do it for them.

A barbecue should be enjoyable, not stressful. With a shut-off timer, you can relax knowing the grill will take care of itself.

For PGS T-Series commercial grills, the gas flow shut-off timer is integrated into the control panel. It’s easy to reset if needed, and it ensures the gas doesn’t keep running if the chef steps away. Homeowners with PGS residential grills can also add this safety feature as an accessory.

Other Grill Accessories

Nothing brings joy quite like an outdoor barbecue. Gathering friends and family around a sizzling meal is a timeless tradition. A top-tier grill with versatile features can elevate these moments even further. While basic grilling—burgers, steaks—is always a hit, a well-equipped grill opens up endless possibilities. Think roasted vegetables, kabobs, stir-fries, and even desserts—all achievable with the right accessories.

To master your craft, you need the proper tools. PGS natural gas grills offer a range of accessories to enhance your grilling experience and make your backyard gatherings the talk of the neighborhood.

Investing in quality tools pays off. Brushes, tongs, and spatulas designed for heavy use will serve you well for years. And with side burners, you can prepare stovetop dishes without heading back indoors. Side shelves and storage drawers provide ample space for prep work and storing utensils. "Moon Rok" briquettes retain heat evenly, preventing hotspots. When the party ends, a durable cover protects your grill from the elements.

There are also some unique extras to take your cooking to the next level.

Lift-Assist Grill Handle

Opening and closing a grill lid is usually straightforward. However, if you're reaching over a hot grill or dealing with mobility issues, it can become challenging. The lift-assist grill handle simplifies this task.

Specifically designed for PGS grills, the lift-assist handle rests alongside the cover with a padded grip. Simply grab it and give it a gentle twist. Unlike the main handle, it stays within reach until the cover is fully opened. Whether you're recovering from an injury or just juggling multiple tasks, this accessory makes grilling easier and safer.

Infrared Rotisserie Burner

Expanding your outdoor culinary repertoire is easier with an infrared rotisserie burner. Traditional grilling relies on flame heat, which works well but lacks precision. In contrast, infrared technology generates intense heat that’s easier to control.

Infrared heats up faster, seals in juices, and is perfect for thick cuts of meat. With the rotisserie slowly turning the food, you can cook roasts, whole chickens, vegetable baskets, and more. Infrared rotisseries are more efficient than conventional burners, saving gas in the process.

Many chefs appreciate having both radiant and flame heat options. You can even offer guests a choice between rotisserie chicken and classic grilled burgers.

Grill Island

There are several ways to mount a grill, from placing it on a wheeled cart to building a custom outdoor countertop. For those without space for a permanent patio grill, a grill island offers similar flexibility.

PGS collaborates with Gensun to offer prefabricated grill islands. These islands provide a dedicated workspace designed for outdoor cooking. Side shelves and ample storage below—cabinets and drawers—are included. There’s plenty of room for preparation and storage, allowing you to chop, cook, and plate everything right at the grill.
