Broilmaster Series Comparison

What Makes Broilmaster Different — Cast Aluminum & Bow-Tie Burners

Most premium grills use stainless steel cookboxes. Broilmaster uses cast aluminum — and that's a feature, not a compromise. Cast aluminum:

• Doesn't rust — unlike even 304 stainless in coastal/humid climates
• Retains heat better — thicker walls hold temperature on cool nights and during long cooks
• Lasts decades — Broilmaster grills from the 1980s are still in service today with original parts available

The Bow-Tie burner is Broilmaster's patented design — wider in the center than at the ends, distributing heat more evenly across the cooking surface vs. straight tube burners. Combined with the cast aluminum cookbox, you get extremely consistent grilling temperatures.

Broilmaster P-Series — The Flagship

The P-Series Premium is Broilmaster's top-tier — cast aluminum cookbox, bow-tie stainless burners, charmaster briquets included for that authentic flame-grilled flavor, and the heaviest construction in the lineup. Models BSG343, P3SX, and P3X cover the most popular sizes.

Broilmaster R-Series — For Searing

The R-Series adds an infrared sear burner to the Broilmaster cast aluminum platform — perfect if you want restaurant-quality searing on steaks while keeping the bow-tie burners for indirect cooking on the rest of the grill.

Broilmaster B-Series Premium — Best Value

The B-Series Premium brings the same cast aluminum cookbox and bow-tie burner technology to a more accessible price point. Same Broilmaster build quality, just fewer luxury features. The best entry point into the Broilmaster line.

They consistently rank in the top tier of premium gas grills with a 10-year cookbox warranty and lifetime grid warranty. Best for buyers who value longevity over flashy features.

Where are Broilmaster grills made?

Broilmaster grills are designed and manufactured in Columbus, Ohio. They have been an American-made brand since 1966.

What is the bow-tie burner on a Broilmaster?

The Bow-Tie burner is Broilmaster's patented stainless steel burner design — wider in the center and tapered at the ends. This shape distributes heat more evenly across the cooking surface than straight tube burners, eliminating hot spots.

Why is Broilmaster cast aluminum better than stainless steel?

Cast aluminum doesn't rust (a real advantage in coastal or humid climates), retains heat better than stainless thanks to thicker walls, and lasts decades. Many Broilmaster cookboxes from the 1980s are still in service. The trade-off is appearance — some buyers prefer the look of polished stainless.

What is the difference between Broilmaster P-Series, R-Series, and B-Series?

P-Series is the flagship with cast aluminum cookbox, bow-tie burners, and charmaster briquets ($2,200-$3,800). R-Series adds an infrared sear burner ($1,800-$3,200). B-Series Premium is the best-value entry into the line with the same cast aluminum and bow-tie burner technology ($1,200-$2,400).

What is the Broilmaster warranty?

10 years on the cast aluminum cookbox and stainless burners, lifetime on cooking grids. Full warranty applies when purchased from authorized dealers.
