Discover a new level of outdoor cooking precision with the Napoleon Prestige PRO 500 Smart Gas Grill. Combining premium stainless steel construction, intelligent cooking technology, and powerful grilling performance, this advanced gas grill offers exceptional versatility for everyday meals and memorable backyard gatherings.
Featuring four main burners, 82,000 BTUs of total heat output, and 900 square inches of total cooking space, the Prestige PRO 500 delivers generous capacity for grilling, roasting, searing, and more. Its 28-by-17.75-inch main cooking surface accommodates up to 31 hamburgers, providing plenty of room for family dinners and entertaining guests.
Napoleon's heavy-duty 9.5 mm stainless steel WAVE™ cooking grids retain heat evenly, create distinctive sear marks, and help prevent smaller foods from falling between the grids. HeatBoost™ Reflector technology redirects heat upward to improve cooking consistency and reduce heat loss, particularly when the grill lid is opened.
For steakhouse-quality searing, the infrared SIZZLE ZONE® side burner reaches temperatures up to 1,800°F in less than 30 seconds, delivering intense heat for beautifully seared steaks, chops, and other favorites. Napoleon's enhanced JETFIRE™ 2.0 ignition system provides fast, dependable burner ignition with one-spark technology.
What truly distinguishes the Prestige PRO 500 is its intelligent grilling technology. Choose between traditional manual grilling and Smart Mode, which provides automated temperature management through the grill's LCD screen or compatible mobile app. Intelligent Gas Automation adjusts heat when the lid is opened to help maintain consistent cooking temperatures without constant manual adjustments.
For greater cooking precision, the grill supports up to three wired and two wireless temperature probes, allowing you to monitor food temperatures through the LCD screen or mobile app. Real-time notifications help you stay informed throughout the cooking process, while flame-out detection provides an additional layer of safety with automatic gas shut-off after 30 seconds if a flame goes out.
Premium metal control knobs feature dual-ring SmartGlow™ LED lighting that provides intuitive visual feedback. The illuminated centers change in intensity and color to indicate burner settings, while SafetyGlow™ technology offers a clear indication when burners are operating. Guided LED indicators also assist with selecting appropriate burners for direct and indirect cooking.
Integrated hood lighting illuminates the grilling surface for evening cooking, while additional LED lighting beneath the control panel makes stored accessories easier to locate after dark.
Convenience extends throughout the grill's design. The Easyclean™ Pro Drawer provides accessible grease management, while a space-saving warming rack storage system keeps the cooking area organized. Sturdy side shelves, built-in accessory hooks, a bottle opener, and smooth-rolling powder-coated caster wheels make outdoor cooking and entertaining more convenient.
With eight cooking methods available through its versatile design and compatible accessories, the Prestige PRO 500 adapts to a wide range of outdoor cooking styles. Certain cooking functions require accessories sold separately.
Available in natural gas and liquid propane configurations, the Napoleon Prestige PRO 500 combines innovative smart technology with durable construction and is backed by Napoleon's lifetime limited warranty.
