Culinary Showcase Under Pressure: Monument Gas Grills’ Denali 605Pro & Mesa 415BZ Serve 3,000+ Meals in Two Days

On March 18 and 19, Monument Grills showcased the power and precision of two incredible grills — the Denali 605Pro and the Mesa 415BZ — serving a total of 3,000+ meals to over 3,000 hungry guests. Chefs Tom, John, Pooch, Eric, and Derek took center stage, effortlessly feeding large crowds with perfectly cooked steaks, smoky ribs, chargrilled vegetables, slow-smoked brisket, and flash-grilled burgers.
The Denali 605Pro showcased a rugged stainless steel frame, engineered for industrial-grade durability. As crowds admired chefs effortlessly searing over 1,000 meals daily, the true marvel lay hidden: Monument's Blade-Infrared burner system and ceramic infrared sear burner, it reaches 700℉ in 10 minutes. Meanwhile, Bluetooth-connected smartphones hummed with real-time temperature alerts, empowering chefs to perfect every sear with surgical accuracy.
The compact Mesa 415BZ is your secret weapon in cooking with the precise balance of consistent and rapid heat. Its Broil Zone burner fired up to 650°F in 10 minutes. The 630 sq. in. cooking surface became a stage for culinary improvisation - one moment handling sizzling patty, the next perfectly roasting beef as the side burner simmered signature sauces. Attendees kept circling back, drawn by the aroma of chargrilled vegetables and meat caramelizing under 62,000 BTUs of infrared precision.
The numbers speak for themselves: 3,000+ meals served in two days across both grills. At Monument Grills, we don’t just promise quality—we prove it under pressure with smart engineering, infrared precision, and relentless durability.
