Gas grill Char-Broil Performance Power Edition 3 TRU-Infrared, cast iron grates, side burner

Char-Broil Performance Power Edition 3 is a compact gas grill designed for users who want both versatile three-zone grilling and a dedicated ultra-high-temperature searing area. It combines three stainless-steel main burners, TRU-Infrared™ Technology, and a 3.52 kW ceramic Sear Burner capable of reaching up to 900°C. Char-Broil officially rates it for approximately 4–6 people.

🔥 TRU-INFRARED™ TECHNOLOGY

The patented TRU-Infrared™ system uses stainless-steel emitter plates between the burners and cooking grates. They spread heat evenly, reduce direct flame contact and help minimise flare-ups. Char-Broil states that the system can produce food that is up to 50% juicier while improving heat efficiency.

🔥 THREE STAINLESS-STEEL MAIN BURNERS

The three main burners are made from stainless steel and designed for high heat with efficient gas consumption. The current official product specification lists 9.23 kW for the main-burner system.

Independent burner adjustment makes direct and indirect heat zones possible.

🥩 CERAMIC SEAR BURNER UP TO 900°C

Instead of a conventional side burner, Power Edition 3 features a high-performance ceramic Sear Burner rated at 3.52 kW and capable of reaching up to 900°C. It is particularly useful for quickly developing a deep crust and strong grill marks on steaks.

▭ 54.3 × 43.5 CM COOKING AREA

Char-Broil's official catalogue lists a main cooking surface of approximately 54.3 × 43.5 cm and rates the grill for 4–6 people.

🍖 PORCELAIN-COATED CAST-IRON GRATES

The cooking grates are made from porcelain-coated cast iron, offering strong heat retention and defined sear marks. Char-Broil describes them as durable, rust-resistant and easy to clean.

🔥 STAINLESS-STEEL EMITTER PLATES

The TRU-Infrared™ system uses stainless-steel emitter plates underneath the cooking grates to spread burner heat evenly across the cooking surface.

⚡ SUREFIRE® ELECTRONIC IGNITION

Each burner is fitted with SureFire® electronic ignition, allowing individual push-button ignition without an external open flame.

♨️ WARMING RACK

The removable upper rack can keep cooked food warm, toast bread or serve as an indirect cooking area farther from the main heat source.

🔥 GAS BOTTLE HOLDER

A stable internal holder accommodates gas cylinders up to 11 kg, making cylinder positioning more convenient.

🧰 MADE2MATCH

Performance Power Edition 3 is compatible with the MADE2MATCH accessory system, allowing the grill to be expanded with selected Char-Broil accessories sold separately.

🍖 WHAT YOU CAN COOK

Steaks, burgers, sausages, chicken, pork, fish and vegetables. The 900°C ceramic zone is ideal for intense searing, while the three main burners can handle finishing, indirect cooking and everyday BBQ.

👨‍🍳 CASAGRILL RECOMMENDS

For steaks, fully preheat the ceramic Sear Burner and use it for a fast, intense crust. For thicker cuts, move the meat to the main cooking area and finish at a more moderate temperature.

For chicken and larger cuts, independently control the three main burners to create an indirect heat zone.

🏡 IDEAL FOR

Families of 4–6 people, patios and backyards, especially for users who frequently cook steaks and want a dedicated high-temperature searing zone without moving to a much larger grill.

⚠️ SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

Use outdoors only and follow the Char-Broil owner's manual. Regularly inspect the gas hose, regulator and connections, and perform a leak test after connecting or servicing the gas system.

The Sear Burner can reach 900°C, so avoid contact with the grate and surrounding components until completely cooled. Shut off the gas supply after use and allow the grill to cool before cleaning or moving.

🏆 CASAGRILL VERDICT

Char-Broil Performance Power Edition 3 is aimed at users who want compact dimensions with serious steak-searing capability. Three burners, TRU-Infrared™ and the ceramic 900°C Sear Burner provide a strong combination of everyday family BBQ versatility and specialised high-temperature searing.
