Char-Broil RED Infrared Gas Grill Models: 463250108 & 463250308

If you’re the type that likes to be the first on your block to have the latest and greatest, you might want to check out the new Char-Broil RED Infrared Gas Grill. This bad boy uses one-third less gas and even has a CLEAN mode! I personally have not used an infrared cooking device… yet. I think it’s just a matter of time until we’ll all acquire one if the current trend keeps moving towards this new technology in backyard barbecuing.

There are two different models (463250108 & 463250308) at the time of this article. The Char-Broil RED Infrared Gas Grill sears in flavor while keeping food moist and juicy. Sounds like the best of both worlds to me! You can even drop wood chips through the grates for added flavor. Don’t worry, there’s no need to use full blast all the time. There are a wide range of temperature settings available. So you can sear, barbeque low-and-slow as well as rotisserie cook.

As you might expect from Char-Broil, the grates on the RED Infrared Gas Grill are porcelain cast iron that requires no seasoning, distributes heat evenly and cleaning is a breeze. What I found interesting is that your food is never exposed to an open flame that could ignite food juices. I don’t know about you, but I always thought that’s what gives grilled food more flavor. The unit is DualFuel® equipped so there’s an optional natural gas conversion kit available.

The main differences between the 463250108 and the 463250308 models are: the rotisserie being included with the 463250308 model as well as having more BTU’s (42,600 vs. 35,400). The dimensions on the 463250308 are a little bit larger as well.
