Compact Gas Grill for Small Patios with Premium Broil King Performance
The Broil King Royal 320 Shadow Gas Grill is designed for homeowners who want dependable grilling performance in a compact footprint. Built for patios, decks, condominiums, and smaller outdoor living spaces, this three-burner gas grill delivers the cooking power, durability, and flavor-enhancing technology Broil King is known for without requiring the space of a larger four- or five-burner model.
Equipped with three stainless steel Dual-Tube™ burners producing 30,000 BTUs, the Royal 320 Shadow provides even heat distribution across the cooking surface for reliable grilling results. Heavy-duty cast iron cooking grids retain heat exceptionally well for searing, while the stainless steel Flav-R-Wave™ cooking system vaporizes drippings to infuse food with authentic barbecue flavor and reduce flare-ups.
