Selecting a new grill becomes a delightful experience when you explore the extensive selection of PGS grills, each offering a comprehensive list of sought-after grill features.

PGS Legacy Grills

The Legacy grills are ideal for the average home chef yet still capable of handling bigger events. Whether you're cooking a few burgers for your family or hosting a large neighborhood gathering, there's a Legacy grill perfectly suited for the occasion. All of them are stainless steel grills with a rotisserie option. The cooking system ensures even heat distribution and prevents flare-ups. All Legacy models are available in both liquid propane and natural gas versions.

• The S27 Newport is the smallest Legacy grill, but it doesn't lack in performance. With two burners delivering 45,000 BTUs and a 540 square-inch grilling surface, it can produce mouthwatering steaks, chicken, and vegetables just like its larger counterparts.
• The S36 Pacifica comes with a third burner and outputs 67,000 BTUs. Its 720 square-inch cooking area makes it a breeze to prepare extra food to satisfy a larger crowd.
• The S48 Big Sur is the largest in the Legacy series, featuring four 304-grade stainless steel burners and a standard rotisserie kit (optional on other Legacy grills). It can transform your patio into the neighborhood hub for delicious barbecue feasts and is capable of feeding a big group.

All Legacy models come with hassle-free electronic ignition and offer the PGS "no compromise" warranty, with lifetime coverage on many components.

PGS A-Series Grills

The A-Series grills boast rugged permanent mold cast aluminum with stainless steel internal components. They're easy to maintain and a joy to cook with. They share the same "no compromise" warranty as all PGS grills. Flexible temperature control makes it simple to grill or roast to your desired level of doneness.

• The A30 grill provides 30,000 BTUs across a 330 square-inch cooking surface and offers a 121 square-inch warming surface as well. Don't let its compact size deceive you—this unit can grill, roast, and sauté as efficiently as larger models.
• The A40 grill generates 40,000 BTUs from a 430 stainless steel "H" burner. It also features two stainless steel foldable side shelves, turning any location into an inviting grilling spot.

The A-Series grills are equipped with PGS's renowned ceramic "Moon Rok" briquettes, which ensure even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface.

PGS T-Series Grills

The T-Series is the commercial-grade line of PGS grills. You'll find them in places like resorts and timeshare properties, but they're also suitable for community use in apartment complexes and condos. Designed to meet the demands of professional chefs, they cater to a diverse range of users with varying levels of grilling expertise.

A standout safety feature of the T-Series is the FuelStop 60-minute gas-flow shutoff timer. This automatically shuts the grill off after an hour of use, preventing wastage of gas and avoiding potential hazards. They also come with anti-theft knobs and laser-etched instructions.

• The T-30 grill features a cast-aluminum housing with stainless steel cooking grids. Its two stainless steel burners produce 30,000 BTU over a 330 square-inch surface.
• The T-40 grill is a more powerful version with 40,000 BTUs and a 434 square-inch surface. Both the T-30 and T-40 grills work excellently as pedestal-mounted units and are spacious enough to install several in one grilling area so multiple families can cook simultaneously.
• The S27T grill is a stainless steel grill loaded with features such as anti-theft knobs, a side-mounted heat indicator, and permanent instructions on a laser-etched control panel. It delivers 45,000 BTU over a 504 square-inch cooking surface.
• The S36T grill combines the stainless steel durability and features of the S27T and adds even more grilling power. 67,000 BTUs distribute heat over a 720 square-inch cooking surface for grilling and roasting on a scale that can keep meals coming for as long as needed.
• The S48T grill is the largest in the T-Series with 960 square inches of cooking surface heated by a whopping 90,000 BTUs. It features 304 stainless steel cooking grids and a flippable stainless steel grate for easy cleaning.

All T-Series grills come with a one-year parts replacement warranty. They are durable grills available in both liquid propane and natural gas formats with various convenient mounting options.

Mounting Options for Your PGS Grill

Your PGS grill can be either portable (if it's a propane grill) or permanently mounted (natural gas or propane grills), depending on your cooking space, fuel source, and preferences. We offer multiple mounting options to set up your grill exactly as you wish.

• Pedestal mounts. These are unobtrusive and don't take up much room, yet they're nearly impossible to knock over. They work well for smaller grills powered by natural gas.
• Grill carts. If you use propane tanks and want the ability to move the grill around your cooking area or even store it away, this is the perfect choice. These carts on wheels also provide extra storage space.
• Prefabricated grill islands, like the Gensun Modano Series BBQ Island. These convert your grill into a versatile and dynamic cooking station. Some are specifically built to accommodate PGS grills. Some are permanently installed, while others are semi-mobile. Their enclosures provide cooling, heating, and warming as well as storage.
• Outdoor countertops. Some grill owners opt to customize their grilling area with an outdoor countertop. Incorporating the grill into the countertop allows you to set up a cooking station however you prefer.
