Insulating Liner
An insulating liner is generally required when a built-in appliance is installed in an island built from combustible materials. Always follow the appliance's installation manual and local code.

RCS 26" Premier Series Drop-In Grill with 36,000 BTUs RJC26A, Stainless Steel Construction Propane or Natural Gas
Frequently Asked Questions
What size opening do I need to build for the RJC26A?
The cutout is 23 1/2" wide by 21 1/4" deep by 8 1/4" high. The grill head itself measures 26" wide by 21 1/4" deep by 8 1/4" high, so the face laps roughly 1 1/4" over each side of the opening.
Frame the island to the cutout figures rather than the 26" overall width.
How many burners does the 26" Premier have, and how much heat do they make?
Three stainless steel tubular burners producing 36,000 BTUs together. That output is spread across a compact 26" head, which is why this size suits smaller islands and bar-height counters rather than crowd cooking.
How much cooking area do I get?
546 square inches of cooking surface. A stainless steel warming rack sits above the main grids, so you can hold finished food up top while something else sears below.
Is the RJC26A natural gas or propane?
Either. It is offered in both configurations and the fuel type is convertible between natural gas and propane, so an island plumbed for one fuel today is not a dead end later.
What are the cooking grids made of?
Solid stainless steel. Solid grids hold heat rather than shedding it when cold food hits them, and the same stainless is used for the warming rack above.
How does this grill light?
It uses a Sure-Strike ignition system with manual flash tubes. The flash tubes give you a second way to get a burner going without a lighter reach-in.
What do the briquette flavor grids actually do?
They sit over the burners, spread heat evenly and cut down flare-ups by keeping drippings off the open flame. They are standard equipment on this grill, not an add-on.
Can an infrared searing burner be added to this model?
The listing includes an optional infrared searing burner upgrade for the Premier Series. Confirm the model designation stamped on your grill before ordering any burner so you get the right part number.
How does grease get out of the grill?
A full-width slide-out drip tray runs the length of the firebox. You pull it out from the front of the island, which matters when the grill is surrounded by masonry on three sides.
What does "drop-in" mean for installation?
The RJC26A is a grill head only, built to drop into a finished counter or island opening at the 23 1/2" x 21 1/4" cutout. There is no cart or pedestal in the equation, so the island has to carry the grill and route the gas line to it.
Is there a version of this grill that does not need an island?
Yes. The same three-burner, 36,000 BTU Premier 26 setup is also sold on a rolling cart if you would rather not build masonry around it — see the Premier 26 freestanding cart grill.

I absolutely love my Coyote gas grill! The quality is excellent, it looks beautiful, and I’m very happy with my purchase.
I also want to give a special thank you to Ryan at Northwoods Grills. He was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. Before my grill even arrived, he took the time to help me with measurements and answered all of my questions to make sure everything would fit properly. He was always very attentive, patient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. His customer service really made a difference and made the whole experience so much easier for me.
It’s not often that you receive this level of personal attention and customer service. I truly appreciate all of Ryan’s help and would absolutely recommend Northwoods Grills. Great product and outstanding customer service!
Fabiane Da Silva
Best pricing available for the product (checked all other on line retailers), and Ryan provided excellent responsiveness during the sales process. Loved dealing directly with the owner vs a sales person.
Delivery was completed within a week of the order and Ryan stayed in touch with consistent follow-up to ensure the products met my expectations.
Will recommend to friends / others looking for a high-end built in grill and matching cabinets.

I was caught in a bind with a DIFFERENT provider, and Ryan was able to get me exactly what I needed, he reached out to the manufacturer for me to confirm specs and had my shipment mailed out same day. If you’re in the market for any outdoor kitchen needs, look no further than Northwoods!
Barret Thompson
