Crossray 4-Burner Built-In

We purchased the BBQ a few months back along with the Natural Gas Conversion kit. It was a big decision to go from a conventional gas BBQ to an Infrared one particularly as there were no Australian Reviews available and the ones that were available were from a competitor with. Over 50% of those reviews were against the infrared technology and extremely negative. After many conversations with the people at Thermofilm we decided to drive out to their factory and have a look. I saw a "hack" on youtube to test the even cooking of the BBQ and to...Read more

We have the Crossray 4 burner built in BBQ with the natural gas conversion kit.
Wow, this is way more than just your standard BBQ it turns your outdoor entertainment area into a outdoor kitchen all year round. With this BBQ gone are the days of just cooking some snags and steak in the summer, this truly is a BBQ you will want to cook on 365 days of the year, while it cooks your traditional BBQ food to perfection there is so much more you can do from whole whole fish to vegetables, roast meat and not to forget pizza. I have had natural gas BBQ's...Read more

I have recently purchased the 2 Burner Crossray.

At the price point, I consider it pretty close to perfect. It heats up quick, isn't prone to flare-ups and delivers a strong radiant heat that nicely sears and cooks any food that I have used it for. Have used it for a variety of steaks, burgers, grilled chicken and veges and happy with all the results.

I have also spoken to a number of Crossray employees and have visited their showroom, and they are enthusiastic about the product and deliver a high standard of customer service. They really sta...Read more

The Crossray built in is extremely versatile. Aside from standard BBQ cuts Steak, Sausage, Chicken etc I have cooked Pizza, Char grilled veg, Mexican wraps, Lamb and Chicken on the rotisserie, beef on the rotisserie with Yorkshire Pudding underneath. You can do basically what ever you might do in an oven.
It cooks a variety of cuts beautifully via different methods. It's really up to your imagination?
The heat control needs some trial and error. I have not yet used HIGH. Lowest setting seems to be adequate.
I have found cleaning the unit not e...Read more

I love my Crossray BBQ. I have the 4 burner trolley unit. Was very easy to assemble, as the firebox is a complete enclosed unit, and slots into the trolley easily. The trolley was very easy to assemble. Fantastic for cooking a range foods on and it is like you are cooking on a charcoal grill; you can do a perfectly char-grilled steak (as good as any high end steak house), awesome burgers, fantastic rotisserie lamb, beef and pork, the perfect, juicy rotisserie chicken and it is great for pizzas using a pizza stone and your own hand made base...Read more

I loved my old BBQ but I am so happy I made the switch recently to a 4-Burner Crossray. The first thing that impressed me was the quality of the build, it's a very high-quality product that looks fantastic, and the size of the cooking area is almost identical to my old six-burner BBQ.
But the real fun began when I turned it on for the first time. The BBQ ignites really quickly and the infra-red burners generated cooking-heat almost instantaneously.
I have cooked on the BBQ probably 10 times in the 20 days I have had it and I haven't been disap...Read more

The first thing you notice is the quality of the build. Stainless steel with anodised cast aluminium. It's a quality product and looks great.
Initially the angled burners seem counter intuitive until you realise that it's the radiation, like the way the sun warms us, rather than direct heat, which cooks the bangers. This is more efficient so it uses less gas than barbecues which rely on direct heat. It also cooks faster.
I found that using a lower gas setting was advisable; you don't need to cook on high like on my old barbecue. In fact I thi...Read more

When it was time to get serious on a BBQ upgrade, I looked at all the usual big ticket brands before accidentally stumbling upon the Crossray 4-Burner online. Being a passionate charcoal BBQ cooker, gas BBQs only served for convenience rather than pure flavour. However the fact that the Crossray heats up to such a high heat drew my immediate attention and upon further research and then getting an in store demonstration, I was hooked. It can sear monster tomahawk steaks before finishing them slowly for the perfect technique without fuss. Chicken...Read more
