Broilmaster BSABW16N 16-Inch – Slide-In Power Side Burner with 60,000 BTUs
A 16" built-in power burner with dual-ring control and 60,000 BTUs for true stovetop cooking outdoors.
60,000 BTUs across a dual-ring design gives you the firepower for stockpots, woks, and high-heat searing right beside your main grill. Two independent knobs control the inner and outer rings separately, so you can simmer on one while running the other at full power — everything from delicate sauces to a rolling boil, no compromise. Built entirely from stainless steel, this slide-in burner resists corrosion and daily wear while blending cleanly into a stone, stucco, or stainless island. It ships configured for natural gas with a propane conversion kit included, and it's made in the USA for long-term reliability.

Deep Dive — Burner Performance & Dual-Ring Control►
High-Output Power Burner Performance
This power side burner is engineered for high-performance outdoor cooking, with a combined 60,000 BTUs of heat to handle everything from rapid boiling to deep frying. The dual-ring design focuses heat directly under your cookware, helping large pots come to temperature quickly and stay there.
16-Inch Slide-In Built-In Design
The compact 16-inch slide-in form factor makes it easy to add this burner to a stone, stucco, or stainless island without sacrificing prep space. Clean lines and matching stainless details help the unit blend seamlessly alongside a built-in gas grill and other components.
Dual-Ring Control for Precision Cooking
Two front-mounted knobs manage the inner and outer cooking areas independently, giving you precise control over flame size and heat intensity. Run the inner ring alone for gentle simmering, or ignite both for maximum output when you need serious power.
Durable Stainless Steel Construction
Built from stainless steel inside and out, the Broilmaster BSABW16N is designed to resist corrosion, staining, and daily wear in exposed outdoor environments. The premium finish pairs easily with other durable stainless steel appliances.
Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take►
This one's for the cook who wants real stovetop power outside, not just a spot to warm a sauce. 60,000 BTUs and independent dual-ring control means you can genuinely run a wok or bring a stockpot to a boil quickly, then dial it back to a simmer without switching burners. If you only need occasional light cooking — sauces, sides — the smaller 12" single or double side burner will suit you better and cost less. Worth knowing before you buy: confirm your island layout has room for the full footprint plus ventilation clearance, since this runs hotter and needs more airflow consideration than a standard side burner.
- Cooks who want true wok- or stockpot-level heat output alongside their main grill
- Buyers who want independent control over two cooking zones on one burner
- Anyone building a complete outdoor kitchen station with mains, sides, and one-pot cooking
- Homeowners who want natural gas or propane flexibility built into one purchase
