The grill features a full temperature range from 180°F to 600°F, allowing you to smoke, sear, and roast on the same grill. The Rapid React PID controller heats the grill to the set temperature in 15 minutes or less under optimal conditions, ensuring quick recovery after the lid is opened and consistent temperature in cold weather.
