best fish grill made

we have had our TEC grill for 4 years never a problem. It is not a grill for slow cooking ribs but you can grill tuna or swordfish and cook it thru and it is so juicy inside - it just seers the fish so no juice escapes. Great for steaks and veggies too. Oh and the rotisserie is fabulous!

Great Grill Once Set Up

Very high quality product. [...]. Also, be prepared to use the enclosed plastic spacer to fine tune the igniters or the grill won't light (not sure if those got out of alignment during shipping, but, given how stiff they are, I wouldn't think so--seemed like a manufacturing/inspection issue). Finally, whan I spend [$] on a grill, I don't expect to have to go the hardware store to find a fitting for the standard natural gas hose from my house--should have been included. Once it is set up, though, it is a great grill.

The Skinny:

  • TEC invented infrared gas grills
  • 100% infrared cooking means juicier foods
  • Virtually no flare-ups
  • No hot/cold spots
  • Built like a tank

Things To Love:

The TEC Sterling FR series and G-Sport FR Series are a revolutionary style of gas grill. While most gas grills use convection heat to heat up the air inside the grill and cook the food, TEC uses 100% infrared energy. Even other infrared grills with ceramic infrared burners use some convection heat, and thus are not 100% infrared. With convection heat, as the food cooks, moisture is lost and food becomes more dry. TEC's 100% infrared system ensures the food's natural moisture remains, resulting in juicier food. I love cooking on a TEC grill!

The innovative, powerful burners are what sets TEC apart from all other brands. TEC invented the ceramic infrared burners that you find in most other infrared gas grills today. When their patent ran out on those ceramic infrared burners, TEC was already onto the next level, securing a patent for new 100% infrared stainless steel burners. The stainless steel burners are covered by heavy-duty, radiant glass panels that transfer heat from the burners and cook your food. These panels also efficiently spread the heat across the grilling surface, so there are no hot/cold spots on a TEC. This technology also makes flare-ups virtually impossible, because fat and food drippings are absorbed by the glass panels and never touch the flame. This burner design allows the grill to reach steak searing temperatures on high but also drop down to as low as 350 degrees on low, which provides nice versatility compared to most of the other ceramic infrared burner grills.

TEC builds all their grills in the USA. TEC’s level of quality is unmatched by most other competing brands. Durable, heavy-gauge 304 stainless steel is used throughout the grill (many brands use a mixture of grades). TEC backs up these Sterling FR and G FR grills with a lifetime warranty on the exterior stainless.

TEC’s Sterling FR and Sterling G FR series are very similar, each utilizing the same cooking system and high quality construction. The only differences are cosmetic. The Sterling G FR has a more stylish curved hood and stainless steel knobs, and the freestanding version comes with unique side shelves that feature pull out drawers within them. That's a handy feature for sure!

Things To Consider:

The grills appearance and design is pretty simple and bland however grills aren't suppose to compete in a beauty contest. Due to the nature of their burners, TEC grills have some limitations. Infrared burners are known for their intense heat output, but not for low temperature cooking. As a result, TEC grills don’t have a wide temperature variance like some competing brands. There also isn't a rear rotisserie burner available, a fairly standard feature on other gas grills at this price range. Also, TEC grills produce an extreme amount of clean, white smoke. While this is not harmful, it's important to make sure it's installed in a well-ventilated area, or consider adding a vent hood to help ventilate.

You'll Like This Grill If:

You want a well built, innovative, infrared gas grill from TEC, the inventor of infrared gas grills.

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we’ve all come to expect for small parcels, so it’s important that you’re prepared and understand what’s required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We’ll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can’t be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we’ve only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don’t require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren’t required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you’re home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you’re out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
