Is the Napoleon Built-In 500 Series worth it?

If you are building an outdoor kitchen and want a stainless propane grill with infrared searing, it fits the job at 786 sq. in. and 48,000 BTU. It is not worth it if you need a freestanding grill or a rotisserie.

What size cutout does it need?

It is a built-in head measuring about 70 cm deep and 61 cm high, so check your island's cutout against Napoleon's 500 Series spec sheet before ordering. The grill itself weighs about 72.6 kg.

Does it come with a rotisserie or smoker box?

No. The listing shows no rotisserie and no smoker box, though it does have an infrared burner for high-heat searing.

Can it run on natural gas?

The listed fuel type is propane only. Converting to natural gas would require Napoleon's conversion kit and is not shown here.

How many burgers can it cook at once?

About 32 burgers across the two cooking racks, with 29.5 x 18 in. of primary cooking area.

How does it compare with a freestanding Napoleon 500?

The cooking area, burner count and infrared burner carry over, but this version has no cart, side shelves or wheels, so it depends on your island for support and workspace.

About the Napoleon Built-In 500 Series Grill

The Napoleon Built-In 500 Series is a propane gas grill head designed to drop into an outdoor kitchen island or counter cutout. It has four main burners plus an infrared rear burner for a total of 48,000 BTU, 786 sq. in. of total cooking area across two racks, and room for about 32 burgers. The ACCU-PROBE temperature gauge and Crosslighting ignition are the standout conveniences. It is stainless steel and built-in only, so it competes with other drop-in propane heads on burner count and infrared searing rather than on portability.
