Performance Series FlavorMax 5-Burner Cart with Side Burner

5-burner cart gas grill that adds an 11,000 BTU side burner and 490 sq in of primary cooking area.

$449Approx. MSRP

Suits someone who wants a big-format grill with a side burner for entertaining, but don't expect restaurant-even heat across every burner.

Pros

  • Extra side burner is handy for sauces or sides without a separate stove
  • 5 main burners give plenty of cooking zones for entertaining
  • Cart format is easy to move and offers storage underneath
  • Serious heat (47,000 BTU) — sears fast
  • Built to last (porcelain-coated cast-iron grates, 409 stainless steel firebox, stainless steel lid)

Watch-outs

  • Larger grills in this family have reported thin-gauge panels that feel less sturdy than older Char-Broil models
  • Uneven heat between burners is a recurring complaint across the FlavorMax cart/cabinet range
  • Few obvious weak spots for the money

Known niggles

  • Same FlavorMax-family pattern of uneven burner-to-burner heat reported on siblings in this line
  • Battery-dependent igniter can develop weak spark over time from moisture/corrosion
