Char-Broil introduces an exciting innovation for outdoor cooking in 2025 with the launch of the Versa-Tile® gas grill. This cutting-edge three-in-one appliance features a revolutionary removable ‘tile’ system, allowing users to seamlessly switch between grilling, griddling, and baking pizza. Designed to adapt to different cooking styles, Versa-Tile® transforms every BBQ into a creative culinary experience.
Culinary Creativity with the 3-in-1 Tile System
The patented removable ‘tile’ system is the heart of this multi-functional grill. At its core, a circular section on the griddle serves as a versatile cooking area. When used flat, it creates a 70 x 50 cm griddle surface, perfect for cooking breakfast favourites like pancakes, eggs, and bacon. For pizza lovers, the tile can be raised and placed on a pizza riser, transforming the grill into a high-temperature pizza oven that ensures a perfectly crispy crust. Meanwhile, for traditional BBQ grilling, users can simply remove the pizza riser and insert the round cast iron grill grate, which delivers restaurant-quality sear marks on meat, fish, and vegetables.
This adaptability makes the Versa-Tile® an ideal choice for those who love variety. It caters to different dietary preferences within the same meal, ensuring that everyone gets their preferred dish. Whether it’s a sizzling steak, a crispy pizza, or a fresh-griddled breakfast, this grill has it covered.
Designed for Performance & Flexibility
Built with two stainless steel burners and push-button electronic ignition, the Versa-Tile® offers reliable, even heat distribution. Independent temperature control knobs allow for precise cooking across two separate zones, making it easy to prepare multiple dishes simultaneously.
The grill plate is constructed from ceramic-coated, hot-rolled steel, providing a durable and easy-to-clean surface that enhances cooking performance. The black-painted steel lid features a built-in pizza dome to retain heat, ensuring optimal baking conditions. Added conveniences include utensil hooks and storage space, allowing easy access to tools and accessories while grilling.
Meeting Growing Consumer Demand
The Versa-Tile® is designed to meet the increasing consumer demand for griddle grills, which have surged in popularity over the past three years. As more people seek versatile and convenient outdoor cooking solutions, Char-Broil has created a product that blends performance, creativity, and ease of use.
Ian Clifford, Char-Broil’s General Sales Manager for the UK & Ireland, states: “We’re thrilled to bring Versa-Tile® to the UK market, reinforcing our commitment to providing consumers with versatile, high-performance outdoor grills. This innovative product meets the increasing demand for griddle grills, which have seen significant growth over the past three years. More importantly, it adds fun and creativity to outdoor cooking.”
He continues: “The joy of the Versa-Tile® is in its versatility. If one person wants grilled steak, another can have a crispy pizza. Breakfast options also expand beyond grilled bacon and sausages to include pancakes or crispy flatbreads, all made effortlessly on this flexible appliance.”

The Char-Broil Versa-Tile® grill will be available from February 2025 at a retail price of £549.99. It will be stocked by John Lewis and garden centres nationwide, making it accessible to customers eager to elevate their outdoor cooking game.
