Side Burners & Power Burners

Side Burner, Double Burner or Power Burner?

A single side burner handles one pot or pan, while a double side burner lets you keep a sauce and a side going at the same time. A power burner puts out far more heat and usually comes with a wok ring, which makes it the pick for stir fries, seafood boils and big batches. An infrared searing burner is another option when you want a steakhouse crust.

Drop in models sit in a simple countertop cutout, while slide in and built in models need a cutout sized to the unit. In a combustible island, a burner may also need an insulated jacket. For a matched look, choose the same brand as your built-in grill, and see built-in griddles if you want a flat top next to it.

Shop side burners by brand: Blaze, Bull, Coyote and Lynx.
