Fire Magic Aurora A540s 30" Freestanding Gas Grill with Side Burner

The Fire Magic Aurora A540s 30" Freestanding Gas Grill with Analog Thermometer & Single Side Burner (A540s-62) is a premium, heavy-duty portable cart grill proudly manufactured in the USA. Engineered to provide the legendary cooking power and structural integrity of Fire Magic's flagship lines in a self-contained, mobile package, it is ideal for homeowners who want a luxury-tier outdoor culinary station without building a permanent brick island structure.

Constructed entirely from premium 304 food-service grade stainless steel, the setup rests on an easy-glide cart featuring integrated storage utilities, dynamic side shelving, and a dedicated high-output prep burner.

Performance Engineering & Key Features

• Cast Stainless Steel "E" Burners: Driven by three massive main burners precision-forged from 1/4-inch thick premium 304 stainless steel. Weighing up to 12 lbs each and backed by a lifetime warranty, these robust burners output a combined 63,000 BTUs and feature a protective top lip to prevent port clogging from cooking grease or food debris.

• Patented Diamond Sear Cooking Grids: Equipped with heavy-gauge trapezoidal 304 stainless steel grids. The bars are engineered with a smooth, flat top to maximize direct surface contact with food, resulting in optimal heat transfer, faster cook times, and uniform steakhouse sear lines.

• Flush-Mounted Single Side Burner: Embedded directly into the left side shelf of the cart is a premium 15,000 BTU side burner. Protected by a lift-up stainless steel cover when not in use, it expands your kitchen versatility for simmering sauces, boiling sides, or sautéing ingredients without needing to walk inside.

• 16-Gauge Flavor Grids: High-efficiency, V-pattern stainless steel flame tamers cover the burners to spread radiant heat evenly across the grids. They protect the burners while instantly vaporizing cooking drippings into flavorful smoke that infuses right back into your cook.

• Advanced Electric Hot Surface Ignition: Outfitted with a highly reliable 120V AC push-to-light electronic hot surface ignition system. This commercial-grade setup delivers fast lighting under harsh weather conditions and is fully backed by dedicated mechanical flash tubes for emergency manual backup lighting.

• 90-Degree Double-Walled Hood: Built with a double-lined, heavy-gauge teardrop hood designed for deep convective heat retention. Supported by a Teflon-coated spring-assist mechanism, the lid opens smoothly to a full 90 degrees to optimize rear exhaust ventilation.

• Evening Ambiance & Backlit Knobs: Equipped with dual integrated, angled interior 12V halogen lights for complete visibility during nighttime grilling. The seamless control panel features back-lit comfort-grip safety knobs that illuminate with a safe blue LED glow and automatically turn red when the corresponding burner is active.

• Hood-Embedded Analog Thermometer: Features a large, attractive analog dial gauge wrapped in a polished stainless steel bezel. The face reads up to 1000°F and is angled forward for easy monitoring without losing valuable heat by lifting the hood.
