New Thermador Professional Grill Brings Outdoor Grilling Inside
Posted by: Ali Cafferty

With winter snow and cold in full swing, preparing a juicy, grilled steak, scallops or vegetables may seem just a dream. Not anymore! Thermador is proud to announce that a new Professional Grill surface cooking feature, which complements the Pro Rangetop, Pro Harmony® and Pro Grand® Ranges, is available to culinary enthusiasts who are ready to bring the grilling experience indoors all year round.
The innovative design of the Professional Grill enables culinary enthusiasts to enjoy a cooking experience that more closely resembles using an outdoor grill – with genuine smoky flavor, fast preheating and outstanding searing. It also features two different cooking zones that enable foods, such as meats and vegetables, to be grilled simultaneously at different temperatures – for optimal results every time.
In fact, this is the only indoor Professional Grill to offer exceptional grilling performance while minimizing flare-ups. This is made possible by grill grates designed to fully cover the electric heating elements underneath, which help prevent oils and sauces from falling directly onto the heating element and flaring up. In addition, because the grill grates sit directly on the electric heating element, they require minimal time to preheat and provide outstanding searing capabilities.
Underneath the heating element are ceramic briquettes, which further help to distribute more even heating. In addition, as they collect the drippings from the foods being cooked above, they provide the genuine smoky flavor that enhances a deliciously grilled meal.
Once the meal is prepared and enjoyed, cleanup is a breeze. The entire grilling unit can be disassembled for easy cleaning, and the grill grates and drip pans can be placed into the dishwasher. Meanwhile, the ceramic briquettes can be used multiple times, and when it is time to clean them they simply need to be placed into a boiling pot of water for approximately 20 minutes.

Is there a showroom that has this range on display. Wish stores offered cooking demos. I live in Rochester, NY 14617. I’m willing to drive under 2-hrs to see this in action. I’m building a house and want great appliances.
Thanks
We purchased a thermador 5 burner gas cook top and had it installed in the kitchen of the new home we built.
We have had and continue to have nothing but problems with it even after multiple service calls. It has become apparent to us that thermador does not know how to correct the problems and we are left with a cook top that does not function properly.
We have a Wolf gas cooktop in our other home that worked great for many years.
can anyone help!!
Would love to see in electric induction.
BRILLIANT!!!!!
BRILLIANT!
It looks like a wonderful indoor grill. I was just wondering what % of it is made in USA??
love this feature….I already own a pro grand 48″ dual fuel range (the first model with steaming feature and warming drawer)…..it is not clear to me whether this featured grilling accessory is only for the newest models, or if it is indeed an “add-on” accessory that is compatable with previous models. Please clarify. Thanks! Stacy in Virginia
Hi there, I appreciate the email but very disheartened how thermador customer service handled my numerous repairs to a 48″ stove/oven. I have paid over $1000 in repairs and still no result. I am sorry to complain but very unfortunate to pay over $6000 for a unit that is continuously broken. I am going to have to purchase a new unit and a real shame your customer service and product has not held up. I guess I will be heading to a competitor and hope for a superior product and service.

This is the best combination that I have ever seen. I hope that you will consider, to come up with the innovation to have to ovens in one side, and a microwave on the other side, including smaller oven for breads, and pastries.
I own a pro harmony. Is the grill a retrofit option?
Hi Steve, the new Professional Grill is a new product that is available on new Pro Rangetops, Pro Harmony® Ranges and Pro Grand® Ranges.
Hi Stacy, the new Professional Grill is not an “add-on” or an accessory, it is a feature that is available with new models of the Pro Rangetop, Pro Harmony® Ranges and Pro Grand® Ranges.
Hi Bob, thank you for your interest in our new Professional Grill. The Professional Grill is part of the new Pro Rangetop, Pro Harmony® Ranges and Pro Grand® Ranges, and they are made in LaFollette, Tennessee.

I have one of the original Thermador Professional Ovens purchased 22 years ago. Overall, a nice unit but not without significant problems over the years. The cooking grates all have cracks. The broiler in the small oven no longer works. The self cleaning for the large oven no longer works, and then the door starting locking up. That had to be “fixed” to stay open for use. The grill has never really heated up to sufficient temperature comparable to my outdoor grill. The final straw was that the griddle, which we need to use for simmering, no longer heats up enough to simmer a large stock pot of soup. Our repair guy states he cannot obtain parts from Thermador and that we need to purchase a new oven. He has admirably kept this going for years but I think “it is time”. I have to wonder, given this track record, why I should go with Thermador again as opposed to Wolf, Viking, etc. I’m starting to actively look now.

Thank you for taking the time to ask for my complaint on my 48″ gas stovetop with 2 high low burners 4 standard burners and griddle. Model #PCS486GDUS Serial # 99090054F purchased 1999. The following repairs have been made or attempted to be made. Bray & Scarff replaced the gas simmer control model # SQ003 for the high lower burners which one did not work. Winchester Appliance dealer looked at my stove 4 years later front high low burner was not working, heard something pop, said OH, closed up the stove and left. March 2016 had another repairman look at my stove said he would get back with me within a week, passed message through a friend, saying Thermador no longer made parts needed for repair. One of my other complaints is there does not seem to be any knowledgeable repair person available to understand how to repair these stoves. My biggest challenge now is to find another stove to replace this gas top leaving a 48″ hole in my granite.
It’s been a week since I sent you information concerning my cooktop and I have not heard one word. Do you plan to contact me?
We are renting a home with a beautiful Thermador professional range. It has a grill, which seems to be gas-fueled, but we cannot figure out how to turn it on. The dial directly beneath the grill does not activate it. We’d appreciate any help in solving this mystery, since we are eager to try this feature. We don’t know the model number but can provide it if someone can tell us where to find it! (Sorry if these are dumb questions. We’re new to Thermador, but we love everything about it so far!) Thanks for all wisdom.
Hello Susan, Thank you for your inquiry – please email ThermadorCare@bshg.com with more information about your appliance, and we will get back to you with more information on how to find the model number as well as assistance in using the grill to its full capabilities. Thank you.
