Have you ever purchased a nice-looking fireplace for your patio only for it to look like it belongs in a junkyard after a few uses? It’s one thing to purchase an outdoor amenity that looks good and another for it to remain in great condition.
In this blog, we’ll discuss the different types of stainless steel, the benefits they bring to your grill, and some of our favorite models made with it.
Not all stainless steel is made equally. Different types of material and strength cause the steel to be labeled at different grades.
Generally speaking, there are three different categories of stainless steel: austenitic, ferritic, and martensitic.
Due to the drastic temperature swings that come with operating a grill, austenitic steel is considered the best. This is because austenitic steel has an operating temperature of well over 1000 degrees Fahrenheit.
Of austenitic steel grills, there are two grades: 304 and 316.
Both are great options for grills and have their own benefits.
While both grades are incredibly resilient against rust, 316 is even better suited for wet conditions. That being said, there is a premium for that benefit as 316 is significantly more expensive than its 304 counterpart.
Regardless, whether your grill is made with 304 or 316, it’s not going to rust anytime soon.
At ElectriChef, we not only make our grills with quality 304 stainless steel, they’re also completely electric and have no open flame so they can be installed in places where regulations don’t allow traditional fossil-fuel-based appliances.
Not only that, they perform like their traditional counterparts as well.
It’s the perfect luxury grill for that high-rise apartment, beachfront condo, or even the perfect addition to a luxury yacht or RV.
And since these grills are made with 304 stainless steel, you can trust they will last a long time.
Here are some of our favorite models of electric stainless steel grills:
