Start a New Relationship With Your Next Grill: Cook Like A Pro Without Breaking the Bank

(ARA) - Up until now, casual grillers have had a "love-hate" relationship with those beautiful high-end commercial-grade grills on the market: They've loved the grill's shiny-new look and ability to turn out perfectly seared steaks, but have hated the price.

A new class of grills from Char-Broil could change that yin-yang relationship for good. The company has just rolled out its new Char-Broil TEC Series, a professional-grade grill featuring the same cooking technology used in upscale steakhouses. The price? Less than $1,000 for a grill comparable to those with price points in the $4,000 to $5,000 (and above) range.

"This is the first commercial-grade infrared grill to come on the market at consumer-friendly prices," said Char-Broil Vice President Rob Schwing. "We expect them to be extremely popular among quality-conscious backyard chefs with very high standards -- and an eye on the pocketbook."

With more homeowners adding "outdoor kitchens" to their property, the TEC grill comes at a time when people are looking for both affordability and quality -- with a little high-tech thrown in.

Using a patented infrared cooking system, the Char-Broil TEC grill can cook at temperatures up to 900 degrees F -- replicating the even, radiant heat of charcoal. An open-flame system on the same cooking surface allows cooks the option to grill using a traditional gas or propane method. A flush-mount infrared rotisserie burner and side burner add to the grill's versatility.

You can find Char-Broil TEC Series grills exclusively at Lowe's. For more information, visit www.charbroil.com/tec.
