About Side Burners & Power Burners
Side Burners and Power Burners for Outdoor Kitchens
Side burners and power burners expand your outdoor cooking capabilities beyond the grill. These dedicated burners let you simmer sauces, boil water, sear proteins, and cook anything that requires a traditional burner setup.
Side Burners vs Power Burners
Side Burners: Standard output (12,000-15,000 BTU) burners designed for sauces, sides, and general stovetop cooking. Perfect for warming beans, making gravy, or sauteing vegetables while the main course grills.
Power Burners: High-output (25,000-60,000+ BTU) burners designed for serious heat. Boil large pots of water for seafood boils, heat woks for stir-fry, or deep fry turkeys. Essential for outdoor entertaining at scale.
Single vs Double Burners
Single burners save counter space and suit occasional use. Double burners provide more flexibility for cooking multiple items simultaneously. Consider your cooking style and available island space.
Installation Requirements
Built-in burners require a gas line connection (natural gas or propane) and proper cutout dimensions in your countertop or island. All Kokomo burners include installation specifications. We recommend professional installation for gas connections.
