While the infrared barbeque has been around since the 1960s, it has only recently become available for home use. Previously, only professional culinary establishments were able to make use of this appliance. This is because the developer of infrared cooking, the Thermo Engineering Corporation of Columbia, South Carolina, had a patent on the technology.

As a result, only the finest steak houses have been able to cook with infrared for more than 30 years. Now that the original patent has expired, however, various manufacturers are making infrared barbeques available to home cooks.
The technology makes it possible for infrared grills to heat faster and hotter than traditional gas grills. Although infrared barbeques are fueled with gas, they focus the flame onto a ceramic tile that is filled with extremely small holes. This process changes the heat into infrared energy- an energy that heats up the grill much more quickly than other options.
There are several key advantages to using infrared barbeques. These advantages have been recognized and capitalized on by restaurants for years. Consider the following benefits:

•Extra heat – while other gas grills range from 450-700 degrees Fahrenheit, an infrared barbeque can reach approximately 900 degrees Fahrenheit. This allows for the outside of a steak to be quickly cooked, while keeping the inside tender and juicy.

•Flavor – as mentioned, more juices are retained within meat during cooking, resulting in an immensely more flavorful meal. In addition to that, a smoke-infused barbeque flavor can be achieved by tossing some wood chips on the burner.
•Versatility –the outside of meat or vegetables may be quickly heated with the infrared energy and then the food may be transferred to another gas burner to finish cooking.
