Description

The American Made Grills Drop-In Infrared Sear Burner (IRB-ALT) is a ceramic infrared drop-in burner that replaces one main burner position in a compatible Alturi series grill, adding a dedicated high-heat searing zone capable of reaching 1600°F. At 26,000 BTU, the ceramic element converts gas combustion into direct radiant heat rather than heating surrounding air — producing faster surface caramelization and a Maillard crust that standard convection burners cannot match at the same BTU output. Installing this burner replaces one standard main burner position: your grill gains a sear zone but has one fewer standard convection burner. Compatible with: Alturi 30", 36", and 42" grills (ALT-30T, ALT-36T, ALT-42T — built-in and freestanding) Not compatible with Atlas, Estate, or Encore/Muscle grills..

What's Included
Drop-in infrared sear burner unit
Ceramic infrared element in stainless steel housing (IRB-ALT)
Key Features
  • 26,000-BTU Ceramic Infrared Element — Up to 1600°F: The ceramic element radiates heat directly onto food rather than heating surrounding air. At 1600°F, surface searing occurs rapidly with less moisture loss than convection burners running at comparable BTU.
  • Drop-In Installation — Replaces One Main Burner Position: No modification required. The burner drops into the existing burner position. Gas connection uses the existing manifold fitting.
  • Series-Specific Fit (Alturi Only): Gas manifold connections, burner port geometry, and support bracket dimensions are matched to the Alturi series. This burner is not interchangeable with other AMG series.
  • Dedicated Sear Zone Configuration: On a 3-burner grill, one infrared zone + two standard zones covers the full range of searing, roasting, and indirect cooking in a single session.
Installation & Use Notes
  • Installation must be performed by a qualified gas technician. Confirm gas type and manifold connection before installation.
  • This burner is compatible with Alturi 30", 36", and 42" grills (ALT-30T, ALT-36T, ALT-42T — built-in and freestanding) only. Confirm your grill's model number before ordering.
  • Installing this burner replaces one standard main burner position in your grill.
  • Allow the infrared element to cool completely before handling or cleaning.
Ordering Notes
  • This burner fits Alturi 30", 36", and 42" grills (ALT-30T, ALT-36T, ALT-42T — built-in and freestanding) only. For other AMG series, confirm the correct infrared sear burner SKU for your grill model.
Safety Information
