Performance & Cooking Power
- 770 sq. in. grilling area
- Two 18-SR stainless steel U-burners (55,000 BTUs total)
- Dedicated ceramic infrared Sear Burner (27,500 BTUs)
- Integrated rotisserie system with 18,500 BTU rear infrared burner
- Smoker system with 5,000 BTU dedicated burner and wood drawer
Sear Zone™ Performance: True Steakhouse Heat
The Alfresco Sear Zone™ is a dedicated 27,500 BTU ceramic infrared burner capable of reaching temperatures up to 1,500°F in approximately four minutes.
- Why it matters: Traditional stainless burners cook primarily through convection (heated air). Infrared delivers direct radiant energy, allowing you to sear the exterior quickly while helping retain natural juices.
- Reduced flare-ups: The ceramic surface vaporizes drippings rapidly, producing flavorful smoke while minimizing grease flare-ups.
Signature Smoker System: Dedicated Flavor Control
Unlike basic smoker boxes that sit on the grates, the ALXE-42SZ features a dedicated 5,000 BTU burner paired with a heavy-duty stainless steel drawer.
- Independent operation: Introduce smoke without running the main burners — ideal for delicate items such as fish or cheese.
- Precise adjustment: Control smoke intensity independently for balanced flavor.
Safe-Touch™ Air-Cooled Control Panel
Alfresco’s Safe-Touch™ air-cooled control panel separates the firebox from the valve and ignition components using an insulated air gap.
- Cooler controls: Knobs remain comfortable to operate even during high-heat cooking.
- Long-term durability: Reduced heat exposure helps protect valves and electronic components over time.
Premium Features
- Three-position warming rack (stores when using rotisserie)
- Dual integrated high-intensity halogen work lights
- Push-button ignition with sealed 110V AC power source
