Add High-Heat Searing Performance to Your TrueFlame Grill
The TrueFlame Drop-In Infrared Sear Burner gives you the ability to add intense, concentrated searing heat to a compatible TrueFlame TF Series gas grill. Designed as a drop-in replacement for an existing main grill burner, the TF-IRB makes it easy to expand your grill's cooking capabilities without adding a separate searing appliance.
Producing 14,000 BTUs of infrared heat, the burner is designed for high-temperature cooking that helps create a flavorful, caramelized exterior on steaks, chops, seafood, burgers, and other foods. The concentrated infrared heat makes it especially useful when you want to quickly develop a restaurant-style crust while maintaining control over the rest of your grilling surface.
The drop-in design allows the infrared burner to replace a standard main burner in a compatible TrueFlame TF Series grill, giving you the flexibility to customize your cooking surface based on the meal you're preparing. When high-heat searing is on the menu, simply configure your grill with the infrared burner and enjoy an additional cooking option from your existing TrueFlame grill.
Please Note: The TF-IRB is designed for compatible TrueFlame TF Series grills only. It is not compatible with TrueFlame TFE Series grills.
