The Regal 490 features a 50,000 BTU stainless steel Dual-Tube burner system that’s complemented by a 15,000 BTU stainless steel rear rotisserie burner with graduated ports along the entire length to ensures even flame height for consistent roasting. Additionally, the Regal 490 includes a 10,000 BTU cast brass side burner that enables you to create mouth-watering side dishes, soups, and sauces while you grill. This version of the Regal 490 is fueled by natural gas, and it’s also available in a liquid propane model.
Stylishly appointed yet durably constructed, the Regal 490 offers a stainless steel hood panel with double-lined cast aluminum end caps in addition to its stainless steel oven, control panel, and side shelves. With the flip of a switch the heavy-duty locking swivel casters keep your grill stationary and stable. And thanks to the built-in oven lights, you’ll be able to see what you are grilling — even at midnight.
The Sure-Lite ignition system starts your grilling session with the push of a button, and the exterior includes an easy-to-read stainless steel thermometer with a probe that reaches deep into the oven, giving you a more accurate temperature reading.
Broil King’s cooking grids deliver the best heat retention for searing power, which locks in juices and flavor. Made from cast iron, their durability and easy maintenance make them ideal for everyday use. And they’re reversible — one side is pointed to give you perfect grill marks, while the other side is grooved to capture juices for continuous basting while cooking. With a little care, they will last a lifetime.
Broil King’s patented burner technology ensures a consistent flame from front to back, providing even and efficient heat distribution at the cooking surface and eliminating hot and cold spots. The Imperial 490 includes four Dual-Tube burners.
The stainless steel Flav-R-Wave cooking system provides superior heat distribution across the entire surface of the grill and protects the burners. As drippings fall onto the Flav-R-Wave, they are instantly turned into vapor, which infuses your food with that delicious barbecue flavor.
Broil King’s Linear-Flow valves with 180-degree Sensi-Touch control knobs give you infinite heat control, enabling you to set your grill to the perfect temperature for searing, roasting, or slow cooking.
With graduated ports along the entire length, it ensures even flame height for consistent and even roasting. The Imperial includes Broil King’s premium rotisserie kit.
Broil King uses high quality stainless steel for many components. All other steel is coated with zinc and further protected by an epoxy paint that is baked on through a powder-coat process. This premium triple-coat process provides superior rust protection.

Initial Review of Broil King Regal 490 Natural Gas Grill I purchased this grill on Amazon for a surprisingly low price after several months researching natural gas grills to replace the original (1978) grill that was present when we purchased the house. After some very easy-to-resolve connection problems (changing the valve body from 3/8″ to the currently-used 1/2″ size), the grill has been operational. It heats up VERY quickly (600-700F inside of 5-10 minutes) and settles down and goes to work. While I’m adapting to the quicker cook times…
Heavy Duty Grill Arrived in box that weighed 182 pounds! This grill is no light weight big box store grill. Assembly was intuitive and simple. Instructions have pictures only, no words. Was still easy to assemble. All of the major burner assembly and ignitors are already assembled in the main unit. The grill cooks great and cooking heat is no problem. The grill will easily peg out the thermometer on the front with only two of the four burners. I have cooked on it several times now and loving this grill…
