Monument Grills 24367

A four-burner gas grill is the sweet spot for most backyards: enough capacity for a crowd, enough zones for indirect cooking, and enough power to sear properly. The challenge is that once you start looking at features like infrared sear stations, glass lids, and LED controls, prices usually climb past $700.

Monument Grills has built its reputation by offering those premium features at a much lower price. The Monument Grills 24367 Stainless Infrared Propane Gas Grill is its flagship cabinet-style model, packing 72,000 BTUs, a dedicated infrared sear burner, a glass ClearView lid, and roughly 700 square inches of total cooking space for around $579.

This review breaks down how the 24367 performs in real-world grilling, where it cuts corners to hit the price, and how it compares to the Weber Spirit E-435—a similarly sized competitor that costs roughly $200 more.

Monument Grills 24367: 72,000 BTUs, infrared sear burner, and ClearView lid

1. First Impressions and Assembly

The 24367 arrives in a single large box. Most owners report assembly in 30–50 minutes, which is fast for a grill this size. The instructions are clear, the hardware is labeled, and the main body is largely pre-assembled. The Spruce Eats notes that it took their testers less than 40 minutes to put together—unusually quick for a four-burner grill.

Finished, the grill measures 54.5” W × 24” D × 46.5” H and weighs 104 lbs. It is a full-size backyard grill, not a compact apartment unit. The stainless-steel exterior looks polished and modern, and the four LED-backlit knobs give it a premium presence that belies the price.

2. Cooking Power and Heat Output

The headline number is 72,000 BTUs across six burners: four main stainless-steel burners, one standard side burner, and one infrared ceramic sear burner. For context, many four-burner grills in this range offer 40,000–50,000 BTUs total. The extra power translates to faster preheating, better recovery when you load the grates with cold meat, and the ability to hit true searing temperatures.

Monument claims the grill reaches 650°F in about 10 minutes. In practice, that means you can start cooking almost immediately and still get a strong Maillard reaction on steaks, burgers, and chops. The four main burners also give you excellent zone control: you can run a hot sear zone on one side while keeping the other side moderate for vegetables or finishing.

Infrared Sear Burner: Steakhouse Crust at Home

The infrared sear burner on the right side shelf is the standout feature. Unlike standard gas burners that heat the air around the food, infrared burners radiate intense direct heat. That produces the kind of dark, even crust you usually get from a restaurant broiler or a ripping-hot cast-iron pan.

It is not just for steaks. Use it for pork chops, tuna steaks, or even blistering peppers and tomatoes. The side location keeps it separate from the main cooking surface, so you can sear one item while gently finishing another on the main grates.

Standard Side Burner

The left side shelf houses a standard 12,000 BTU side burner, useful for simmering sauces, boiling corn, or keeping a cast-iron skillet of onions warm. It is a convenience feature that reduces trips between the grill and the kitchen.

3. Cooking Area and Grate Quality

The 24367 offers 510 square inches of primary cooking space plus a 190 square-inch warming rack, for roughly 700 square inches total. That is enough for about 28 burgers at once, or a combination of ribs, chicken thighs, and vegetables for a party of 8–10.

The grates are porcelain-coated cast iron, which is the right choice for this price range. Cast iron retains heat better than stainless steel, giving you consistent grill marks and better searing. The porcelain coating makes cleanup easier and helps resist rust, although chipped porcelain can eventually expose the iron underneath.

Beneath the grates, stainless steel flame tamers distribute heat and reduce flare-ups by vaporizing drippings. They are a step up from the simple heat tents found on entry-level grills and contribute to the even heat reviewers consistently praise.

4. ClearView Lid and Night Grilling

One of Monument’s signature features is the ClearView tempered-glass lid. A small window in the stainless lid lets you check on food without lifting it and dumping heat. In cold or windy conditions, that can save several minutes of cooking time and help maintain stable temperatures.

For night grilling, the blue LED-backlit control knobs look sharp and make it easy to see which burners are running. The package also includes a USB grill light that clips to the handle, illuminating the grates after sunset. These are small touches, but they add up to a more usable grill after dark.

5. Build Quality: The Honest Trade-Off

Here is where Monument Grills makes its compromise. The burners are 304 stainless steel, which is the grade you want for high heat and corrosion resistance. But the lid, cabinet, and doors are 430 stainless steel, a thinner, less corrosion-resistant grade than the 304 used on premium grills.

That is why the most common long-term complaint is rust—especially from owners who leave the grill uncovered in humid or coastal climates. Everything Grill Reviews puts it plainly: buy this grill if you want maximum heat and features per dollar and you will keep a cover on it. Skip it if you want a buy-it-for-life product.

For context, the Weber Spirit E-435 uses heavier-gauge materials, a cast-aluminum cookbox, and a more robust grease management system. It will likely outlast the Monument by several years if both are left exposed. The question is whether that longevity is worth the price gap.

Performance Difference

The Monument preheats faster, runs hotter, and gives you more raw cooking area. If your priority is cooking for a crowd, searing steaks, and getting premium features at a mid-range price, the Monument wins clearly.

The Weber holds temperature more steadily, uses fuel more efficiently, and is built to last longer. Its Sear Zone with two Boost Burners is effective, but it does not reach the infrared intensity of the Monument’s dedicated sear burner. Weber also has a far larger accessory ecosystem through its Crafted GBS system.

Value Verdict

At roughly $200–$270 less, the Monument 24367 gives you more BTUs, more cooking space, and more visible features. The Weber E-435 gives you better long-term durability, brand support, and resale value. If you keep the Monument covered and maintained, the performance gap is much larger than the price gap in Monument’s favor.

7. Real-World Cooking Results

Based on hands-on reviews from The Spruce Eats and Everything Grill Reviews:

• Burgers and brats: Fast, even cooking across the entire primary surface. No noticeable hot spots in the center.
• Steaks: The infrared sear burner produces a dark, even crust in under two minutes per side.
• Chicken: Indirect cooking over two burners on low keeps chicken moist without flare-ups.
• Vegetables: High heat is ideal for charring peppers, zucchini, and asparagus.

The main learning curve is temperature control. Because the grill runs so hot, beginners may overshoot their target temp on the first few cooks. Once you learn to manage the four burners as zones, it becomes predictable.

8. Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleanup is straightforward but important:

• Brush the grates after each cook while still warm.
• Empty the removable drip tray regularly—high heat produces more rendered fat.
• Wipe down the stainless surfaces to prevent water spots and early corrosion.
• Cover the grill when not in use; this is the single biggest factor in longevity.

Replacement parts—burners, grates, flame tamers, ignition modules—are available through Monument’s website, and the 8-year limited warranty covers the main burners and firebox.

9. Who Should Buy It?

Buy the Monument 24367 if you:

• Want maximum grilling power and features for under $600
• Cook for 8–10 people regularly
• Love searing steaks and want an infrared burner
• Want premium-looking features like LED knobs and a glass lid
• Are willing to use a cover and perform basic maintenance

Consider the Weber Spirit E-435 instead if you:

• Prioritize long-term durability over raw BTUs
• Want the strongest resale value and brand support
• Prefer a more refined grease management system
• Plan to leave the grill uncovered in harsh weather
• Want access to Weber’s Crafted accessory ecosystem

10. Final Recommendation
