Hi this is John with Designer Appliances. I'm here outside our Bedminster, New
Jersey headquarters where we're gonna be taking an in-depth look at the brand-new
9 Series Evolution Grill by DCS. DCS has always been our go-to grill brand for
customers looking for top performance at a great value, but with great value came
some sacrifice in terms of luxury features found on other competing grill
models. With the 9 Series all of that changes. The 9 Series represents the
pinnacle of grilling and is the top-of-the-line grill for DCS. 9 Series grill heads
are available in 36 and 48 inches and can be installed on an optional grill
cart or into a built-in outdoor kitchen. For those of you looking to replace a
pre-existing 42 or 54 inch grill, your in luck. DCS has cleverly created a six inch
storage accessory that extends your grill to fit a 42 or 54 inch space.
It bolts seamlessly onto either side of the grill to store racks, grates and tools.
This is the three burner, 36 inch 9 Series grill. One of the first things
you'll notice when you open the grill is just how easily the hood opens, thanks to
a tension coil system. The hood itself opens 90 degrees giving you great access
and visibility onto the grill surface and shelves. Inside each of the 9
series three burners features a powerful 25,000 BTU of output giving you precise
temperature control from 300 degrees all the way up to 1,100 degrees.
Unlike some competitor grills that feature just one burner for searing the
DCS is capable of searing across the entire grilling surface. Directly above
the burners you'll find DCS is ceramic radiant rods which help to provide
intense even heat across the entire grilling surface without any cold spots.
The rod design is unique to DCS unlike other competitors to use stationary
ceramic briquettes dripping grease causes the ceramic rods to rotate
downward towards the flame producing a self-cleaning like effect. This helps to
ensure far fewer flare-ups. To further reduce flare-ups DCS has created a
unique u-shaped grill great design that catches dripping grease and
is it down to a grease trap in the front of the grill. If you don't need this
feature or prefer a more standard rounded great design you can flip over
the grates to the other side. The 9 series grill also features DCS is
heavy duty infrared rotisserie. This rotisserie is one of the most powerful
on the market and can easily handle meats up to 50 pounds. New for the 9 Series
the rotisserie rod is conveniently stored under the drip pan handle.
New for 2018, there are two very exciting new cooking features to help
improve your cooking results. The first is DCS' is innovative charcoal and smoker
tray. Remove the cooking grates over any burner and insert the tray. Then fill the
tray with your choice of charcoal or wood chips. This innovative design gives
you the best of both worlds allowing you to cook and infuse flavor with charcoal
or wood chips without the hassle of having to manually light a charcoal fire.
The cleanup is also much easier since you can pull out the tray and dump the
burn fuel when done cooking. This is one of the most truly innovative features
and gives you a gas grill, charcoal grill and smoker all in one. New for DCS you'll
also notice that this girl has lit control knobs as well as stadium
lighting under the dome hood to give you full visibility even at nighttime.
The next innovative feature is the flexible secondary cooking space. Normally the
secondary cooking space is an afterthought in most grills. DCS is
designed the space to be extremely flexible. They give you two moveable
racks and one moveable broiling pan. This gives you the ability to slow cook roast
or keep food warm after cooking. The grill we're currently demoing it has no
side attachments however if you'd like there are optional side serving trays as
well as optional side burners you can add to your grill cart. Grilling season
has officially begun and if you're looking for a new grill look no further
than the 9 series by DCS. DCS was nice enough to give us his demo unit as a
loaner for the season so if you'd like to come by and take it for a test drive
feel free to do so. At Designer Appliances we offer free nationwide
shipping on all DCS grills and if you have any questions feel free to give us a call.
Thanks for watching!
