The Arteflame grill sears at up to 1,000°F, building a deep, even crust while the inside stays juicy. Its expansive cooktop with multiple temperature zones lets you cook everything at once, from meats to veggies. Beyond performance, the Arteflame is a striking backyard centerpiece that combines functionality with stunning design, elevating every gathering.
Arteflame’s center grate reaches 1,000°F, the kind of intense, direct heat steakhouses sear with, so you get an instant crust while the center stays as juicy as you like.
The outside browns fast, so the steak stays tender and juicy under a deep, even crust.
Cook everything at once. Arteflame’s expansive flat-top surrounds a 1,000°F center grate, naturally creating multiple heat zones: the center grate for an instant sear, 450–550°F on the cooktop toward the inner edge for sautéing and veg, and 250–350°F toward the outer edge for gentle finishing or resting. We have measured these zones many times on our own Classic 40 (how the heat zones work). That means steaks, seafood, veggies, and sides all hit their ideal temps together—no juggling burners, no flare-ups, and no pots or pans needed. It’s effortless timing, steakhouse sear, and full-menu control on one beautiful cooktop.
Arteflame’s circular design turns cooking into a social moment—everyone gathers, chats, and shares the experience while the food sizzles. And because it’s a stunning showpiece, not a boxy appliance, it becomes the heart of your backyard instead of being shoved into a corner like a typical gas grill. It’s where the conversation—and the flavor—naturally meet.

I build every Arteflame to hit a true 1,000°F sear. The solid steel cooktop and open-fire bowl concentrate and hold extreme heat, while the internal airflow floods the fire with oxygen to keep temperatures sky-high. That combination of thermal mass + oxygen-rich combustion creates an instant, steakhouse-level crust in seconds—Arteflame’s signature.
