What is the difference between a Fire Magic searing station and a Fire Magic power burner?
The Fire Magic Aurora Single Searing Station uses 24,000 BTU of infrared heat for intense, even searing, while the Fire Magic Echelon Power Burner puts out 60,000 BTUs for boiling, frying and large-batch cooking. Choose the searing station for steaks and chops, the power burner for volume cooking.
What is an infrared searing station used for?
An infrared searing station produces intense, even heat aimed at putting a steakhouse crust on steaks, chops and other proteins. The Fire Magic Aurora single searing station does that with 24,000 BTU of infrared output, which is why it goes into an island alongside a main grill rather than in place of one.
Are Fire Magic burners built-in or portable?
Fire Magic burners are built-in units, installed into an outdoor kitchen island or counter rather than set on a cart. Check each model's cutout dimensions on its product page before cutting the opening, and leave the specified clearance and ventilation around the burner housing.
Do Fire Magic burners come in natural gas or propane?
Fire Magic burners are gas units offered in both natural gas and propane configurations. Confirm which fuel your outdoor kitchen runs before ordering, and add any conversion fittings you need so the burner matches your supply. Browse all burners to compare searing stations against power burners.
How much should I budget for a Fire Magic burner?
Fire Magic burners generally run $700 to $1,800. Where a burner lands depends on whether you are adding a single infrared searing station or a high-output power burner, and on the stainless construction and reliable ignition hardware Fire Magic uses across its burner line.
