American Made Grills Estate Freedom 36" 3-Burner Gas Grill
90,000 BTUs of USA-Built Gas Performance — With the Freedom to Add Every Accessory You Actually Want
The American Made Grills Estate Freedom 36" gives you the full Estate platform — 18-gauge hood, 9mm grates, rear infrared rotisserie burner — and lets you build the accessory package around how you cook.
The American Made Grills Estate Freedom 36" Built-In Gas Grill (EST36-FR-NG / EST36-FR-LP) is the Estate series grill for buyers who want to configure their own setup from day one. It ships with the full structural and performance package — three 26,000 BTU stainless U-tube main burners, a 12,000 BTU rear infrared rotisserie burner, 9mm stainless cooking grates, ceramic briquette flame tamers, 18-gauge double-lined spring-assist hood, and interior halogen and LED lighting — plus a vinyl cover and care kit. From there, you choose which accessories to add: cast red brass H-burners, rotisserie kit, griddle plate, drop-in sear burner, or smoker tray. Built, factory-tested, and serviced in Long Island, New York, tested to ANSI Z21.58 / CGA 1.6, and backed by the Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty.
Full Estate Performance, Your Accessory Choices
The Estate Freedom 36" doesn't compromise on the grill itself — everything that determines cooking performance is at the same specification as the fully loaded Estate. The difference is in what ships in the box: you start with the grill and cover, then add exactly the accessories your outdoor kitchen needs.
Three High-Output Burners
Three 26,000 BTU stainless U-tube main burners deliver 78,000 BTUs of primary cooking heat, with a 12,000 BTU rear infrared burner bringing the total to 90,000 BTUs — independent, operator-controlled, and ready for both quick weeknight cooks and extended sessions.
Generous Cooking Real Estate
920 in² of primary grilling surface across a 36" built-in footprint handles full entertaining loads — multiple proteins, vegetables, and a warm-hold zone — all at once, without batching.
Heavy-Duty Grates That Retain Heat
9mm solid stainless steel cooking grates hold surface temperature after loading cold proteins, press bold sear marks across the surface, and stand up to years of high-heat use without warping or degrading.
Rear Rotisserie Burner Built In
The 12,000 BTU rear infrared burner is built into the grill and ready for a rotisserie rod — the rotisserie kit is an optional add-on you choose separately. Infrared rear heat surrounds the spit evenly, no hot spots, no constant basting required.
Even Heat, Fewer Flare-Ups
Ceramic briquette flame tamers absorb and redistribute heat evenly across the cooking surface, dampen flare-ups from dripping fats, and vaporize drippings back as aromatic smoke — consistent performance across the full 920 in².
Double-Lined Hood, Spring Assist
The 18-gauge double-lined stainless hood retains heat for convection cooking and seals the chamber from wind. Spring assist balances the hood weight so it lifts smoothly with one hand and stays open without support throughout the cook.
The Freedom Difference — Build the Accessory Package You Actually Need
The standard Estate 36" ships with a complete accessory package at a higher price. The Estate Freedom 36" ships with just the grill, vinyl cover, and care kit — then lets you add the accessories that match your cooking style. If you only want the rotisserie kit and sear burner, you pay for those. If you want the full package including cast red brass H-burners, griddle plate, and smoker tray, you build that. Optional add-ons include: cast red brass H-burners (drop-in upgrade), 100 lb.-capacity rotisserie kit, stainless steel griddle plate, drop-in infrared sear burner, and smoker tray — all sold separately by Deck & Den.
Who the Estate Freedom 36" Is For
- Outdoor kitchen builders who want to choose their accessories rather than receiving a fixed bundle — the Freedom lets you configure the grill exactly as your kitchen and cooking style require.
- Island builders adding multiple Estate components — side burner, power burner, or other Estate modules — who want a dedicated grill head without paying for duplicated accessories.
- Buyers upgrading to red brass burners over time — the stainless U-tube burners ship standard; cast red brass H-burners are available as a drop-in upgrade sold separately.
- Serious gas grillers in a 36" footprint who need the heat output, grate mass, ceramic briquette system, and rear infrared rotisserie capability of the Estate platform without a fully stocked package.
- Buy-American buyers who want domestic manufacture, domestic service, and the Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty from a grill built in Long Island, New York.
- Evening and year-round grillers who need interior halogen lighting and blue LED-lit controls to cook confidently well after sunset.

American Made Grills Estate Freedom 36" — Frequently Asked Questions
What does "Freedom" mean — how is this different from the standard Estate 36"?
The Estate Freedom 36" ships with the grill head, vinyl cover, and care kit only. The standard Estate 36" ships with a full accessory package — rotisserie kit, griddle, sear burner, smoker tray — included in the price. The Freedom variant lets you choose which accessories to add separately, so you pay only for what your outdoor kitchen actually needs. The grill's structural and performance specifications are the same across both variants.
What accessories are available to add to the Estate Freedom 36"?
AMG offers these optional add-ons for the Estate Freedom 36", all sold separately: cast red brass H-burners (drop-in upgrade replacing the stainless U-tube burners), 100 lb.-capacity rotisserie kit, stainless steel griddle plate, drop-in infrared sear burner, smoker tray, insulating grill liner (GL-EST36), and a freestanding cart (CART-EST36). Contact Deck & Den to bundle accessories with your grill purchase.
What is the total BTU output and how many burners does the Estate Freedom 36" have?
The Estate Freedom 36" delivers 90,000 total BTUs: 78,000 BTU from three 26,000 BTU stainless U-tube main burners, plus 12,000 BTU from the rear infrared rotisserie burner. All four burners operate independently.
Can I upgrade to red brass burners?
Yes. The Estate Freedom 36" ships with stainless U-tube main burners as standard. AMG offers cast red brass H-burners as a drop-in upgrade, sold separately. Red brass resists corrosion more effectively than standard stainless steel and is the burner material used in the fully loaded Estate 36". Contact Deck & Den to add them to your order.
Does the rear infrared burner come with a rotisserie kit?
No. The rear infrared burner is built into the grill and ready for a rotisserie rod, but the rotisserie kit itself is sold separately as an optional add-on. The 100 lb.-capacity rotisserie kit includes the motor, spit rod, forks, and related hardware. The grill does include built-in rotisserie spit storage for when the kit is installed.
What cooking grates does the Estate Freedom 36" use?
The Estate Freedom 36" uses heavy-duty 9mm solid stainless steel cooking grates. At 9mm, these are among the heaviest cooking grates in the AMG lineup — they retain heat aggressively after loading cold proteins and deliver clean, defined sear marks across the full 920 in² surface. AMG also offers interchangeable grates as optional accessories.
What are the cutout dimensions for the Estate Freedom 36"?
The required cutout dimensions for the Estate Freedom 36" are 34.75 in wide × 21.625 in deep × 10.25 in tall. Always confirm against the AMG Cutout Dimensions Sheet (linked in Manuals & Documents above) before finalizing your island build. If your outdoor kitchen uses combustible materials such as wood framing, the Estate 36" Insulating Grill Liner (GL-EST36) is required and sold separately.
What fuel types does the Estate Freedom 36" support?
The Estate Freedom 36" is available in Natural Gas (EST36-FR-NG) and Propane (EST36-FR-LP). Select your fuel type above before adding to cart. The grill is not field-convertible between fuel types — order the correct model for your outdoor kitchen's gas supply.
Is the Estate Freedom 36" available freestanding?
Yes. The EST36-FR-NG / EST36-FR-LP listed here is the built-in drop-in configuration. A freestanding cart (CART-EST36) is available separately for setups without a custom island. Contact Deck & Den for cart pairing and pricing.
What warranty does the Estate Freedom 36" carry?
The Estate Freedom 36" is covered by American Made Grills' Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty. Structural and mechanical components — stainless steel construction, cooking grates, burners, burner covers, valves, flame tamers, heat zone separators, temperature gauges, hood springs, and briquette systems — are covered for life, 100% non-prorated. Electrical components, including LED bulbs, wire harness and switches, power source wire, transformer, and interior halogen light wire and bulb, are covered for 3 years. Labor is not included. The warranty is honored directly by American Made Grills. Register promptly after purchase to activate coverage.
Can the Estate Freedom 36" be installed in a combustible outdoor kitchen island?
Only with the correct insulating grill liner. AMG requires the Estate 36" Grill Liner (model GL-EST36, sold separately) for installations in outdoor kitchens constructed from combustible materials such as wood framing. Do not install without it in a combustible surround. Confirm clearance requirements against the AMG Cutout Dimensions Sheet before beginning construction.
Is the Estate Freedom 36" made in the USA?
Yes. The Estate Freedom 36" is built, factory-tested, and serviced at the American Made Grills facility in Long Island, New York.
Does Deck & Den offer free shipping on the Estate Freedom 36"?
Yes. Deck & Den provides free shipping on orders over $100 to the contiguous 48 states, and the Estate Freedom 36" qualifies. See the Deck & Den Shipping Policy for full details on delivery method and timing for large freight items.
What is Deck & Den's return policy for the Estate Freedom 36"?
