As Seen In
Perfect Sear, Full Flavor, Backyard Elegance
The Arteflame grill delivers steakhouse perfection with searing heat up to 1,000°F, locking in juices while creating a flawless crust. Its expansive cooktop with multiple temperature zones lets you cook everything at once, from meats to veggies. Beyond performance, the Arteflame is a striking backyard centerpiece that combines functionality with stunning design, elevating every gathering.
1,000°F Sear for Steakhouse-Quality Perfection
Only Arteflame’s center grate reaches a true 1,000°F—the same searing method top steakhouses rely on—so you get that instant, steakhouse crust while the center stays as rare and juicy as you like.
With Arteflame, you’re searing exactly the way the best do it: locking in flavor fast for a consistently tender, mouthwatering steak every time.
Cook Everything, All at Once
Cook everything at once—perfectly. Arteflame’s expansive flat-top surrounds a 1,000°F center grate, naturally creating multiple heat zones: blazing-hot for instant sear, medium for sautéing and veg, and a cooler rim for gentle finishing or resting. That means steaks, seafood, veggies, and sides all hit their ideal temps together—no juggling burners, no flare-ups, and no pots or pans needed. It’s effortless timing, steakhouse sear, and full-menu control on one beautiful cooktop.
The Social Grill
Arteflame’s circular design turns cooking into a social moment—everyone gathers, chats, and shares the experience while the food sizzles. And because it’s a stunning showpiece, not a boxy appliance, it becomes the heart of your backyard instead of being shoved into a corner like a typical gas grill. It’s where the conversation—and the flavor—naturally meet.
Heat that Matters. Flavor that Lasts. Design that Stands Out
Arteflame is built to hit a true 1,000°F sear—something most grills simply can’t sustain. The solid steel cooktop and open-fire bowl concentrate and hold extreme heat, while Arteflame’s engineered airflow floods the fire with oxygen to keep temperatures sky-high. That combination of thermal mass + oxygen-rich combustion creates the instant, steakhouse-level crust that locks in juices in seconds—Arteflame’s signature.
Don't take our word for it; Arteflame has been featured in countless publications with raving reviews.
"There is nothing like it"
Steven Raichlen
Award-winning cookbook author
"It looks like a Claus Oldenburg sculpture. It functions like a wood burning grill & plancha. It's great for steak, fragile fish, veggies and everything in between."
Forbes
Business magazine
"The Arteflame will be the food and fun focal point of any backyard and is equally at home on a prepared surface or grass lawn."
Martha Stewart
Award-winning cook
"I love this grill - it's made of half-inch carbon steel and corten "weathering" steel with a cooktop that heats from the center."
Barbecue Bible
Barbecue & grill recipes
"If the mythic gods of fire had an earthy temple, the Arteflame grill could serve as its baptismal font. Its design, at once primeval and modern, symbolizes mankind's relationship with the awesome power of fire."
