Cal-Flame P5 5-Burner Gas Grill Review
Cal-Flame’s P5 40″ five burner is loaded with great features and constructed from top quality 304 grade stainless steel, P5 includes a griddle tray (shown right), smoke tray for wood chips, rotisserie with 15,000 BTU Infrared back burner and custom cover. The five 15,000 BTU main burners are heavy cast stainless steel and any may be swapped out with an optional infrared sear burner.
Independent ignition fires each burner. Igniters are sealed inside the control panel for protection against moisture and grease – a common cause of ignition failure. The two position warming rack folds up and out of the way when not in use. The double wall stainless hood features seamless welds and two internal lights.
In addition to the numerous standard features, Cal-Flame’s extensive BBQ catalog offers options like a charcoal tray for side by side gas and charcoal cooking and a deep fryer station that fits over the burners on one side in place of the grates, not to mention cabinets, refrigerators, pool, spa and patio goodies!
Our posted MSRP is for the grill with two door cart that has two side shelves that double as serving trays, spice rack, bottle opener, towel and paper towel holders.
