Big Horn Outdoors 1500°F Infrared Steak Grill Video Review:

I take pride in crafting amazing Texas-style smoked BBQ, the kind that requires patience, a good rub, and endless bragging rights. But when it comes to steaks, that’s an entirely different style of cooking – one that demands searing heat and surgical precision to lock in moisture and flavor. I can make a decent steak on a traditional grill, but to cook like the pros, you need the correct tools. Enter the Big Horn Outdoors 1500°F Infrared Steak Grill, a compact powerhouse that has completely transformed my approach to steak night.

This 16″ stainless steel propane grill is built with a professional top-down infrared burner system modeled after restaurant-style salamander broilers. Translation: it applies intense infrared heat from the top down, creating that perfect sear while locking in all the juices and enhancing natural drippings, which is just fancy chef-speak for “your steak will taste better than it ever has before.”

With a powerful 19,000 BTU burner, it heats up to 1500°F (800°C) in just three to five minutes, so you’re not standing there sipping your beer wondering if dinner will be ready before sunrise.

The Big Horn Outdoors Infrared Steak Grill features a 10-tier adjustable rack inside its 13″ wide cooking chamber, which means you can control how close your food gets to the searing ceramic burners for either an intense char or a gentler bake. And yes, it’s not just for steaks; with the included pizza stone, you can make gourmet-style pizzas with a perfect crust in minutes. It’s surprisingly versatile for such a compact grill – ribs, sauces, baked dishes, you name it.

Starting it up is refreshingly easy thanks to its one-touch pulse ignition system. You won’t be fumbling with matches or cursing at wind-blown lighters ever again. The ignition is windproof and reliable, which is crucial when using it outdoors, such as while camping, tailgating, or grilling at the park.

Speaking of outdoor use, the Big Horn Outdoors Infrared Steak Grill is portable and tabletop-ready, making it ideal for backyard BBQs, RV trips, or impressing your friends at the next football tailgate with steaks so perfect they’ll assume you moonlight as a chef at Morton’s.

Clean-up is as effortless as the cooking process. The entire unit is crafted from rust-resistant stainless steel, and all components are detachable and dishwasher-safe. Even the rack guide comes out easily for quick cleaning; it’s a thoughtful touch that shows this isn’t just another gimmicky backyard gadget.

My family has officially declared this the only acceptable way to cook steaks from now on, and I have to agree. In under five minutes, you’ll get a char and doneness rivaling the best high-end steakhouses. For someone who appreciates both quality and efficiency in cooking tools, the Big Horn Outdoors 1500°F Infrared Steak Grill has become a game-changer in my arsenal.

If you’re in the market for a grill that will produce the best steaks you’ve ever eaten while also expanding your outdoor cooking menu to pizzas and beyond, the Big Horn Outdoors 1500°F Infrared Steak Grill is worth considering.

The Big Horn Outdoors 1500°F Infrared Steak Grill retails for $279.99 (currently on sale for $174.99). It is available directly from the manufacturer (use code GEARD35 for an additional $35 off) and other retailers, including Amazon.
