Discovery 1000R 3B – Beefeater

The Discovery 1000R 3B built-in barbecue from the prestigious Australian brand Beefeater has been designed with a clear focus: to offer versatility, durability and high-end aesthetics in outdoor kitchens. This three-burner model combines professional cooking power with elegant design and top quality materials, ideal for those who wish to transform their outdoor space into a true outdoor gourmet area.

Thanks to its built-in configuration, this barbecue integrates perfectly into kitchen islands, masonry structures or customised outdoor kitchen modules, providing a clean, minimalist and contemporary aesthetic. Its robust construction, coupled with patented cooking technologies, make this barbecue an indispensable tool for demanding home cooks and outdoor cooking professionals alike.

Superior power and total heat control

The Discovery 1000R 3B features three powerful, independent burners made of heavy-duty cast iron, a material that retains and distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface, eliminating annoying cold spots. Each burner is designed to withstand high temperatures continuously without warping or rusting, guaranteeing a long service life.

With a total power of 13.3 kW (approximately 4.43 kW per burner), this barbecue offers excellent performance even when cooking large quantities of food. This power level allows temperatures of over 300 °C to be reached in just a few minutes, ideal for searing meats to perfection, roasting crispy vegetables or simmering food with the lid closed like an oven.

In addition, the burners are strategically positioned to maximise thermal coverage across the entire cooking area, facilitating precise temperature control in discrete zones.

Seamless integration and optimised ventilation for any outdoor kitchen

The Discovery 1000R 3B is designed for recessed installation in non-combustible surfaces such as granite, stainless steel, concrete or stone countertops. Its modular design allows for harmonious integration into modern outdoor kitchen projects, where the equipment must be functional, aesthetic and durable.

The fitting dimensions are exact:

• Overall width: 690 mm

• Total depth: 520 mm (including additional 20 mm for rear ventilation)

• Minimum recess height: 200 mm

• Height of the barbecue with closed lid: 450 mm

• Height with lid open: 820 mm

• Total weight (with lid): 45 kg

For a safe and efficient installation, it is essential to allow an additional 10 cm on each side of the unit, and at least 20 cm at the rear, as the lid needs clearance to open fully without obstruction.

In addition, this model requires the mandatory use of Beefeater’s original inset rails, which ensure the stability of the appliance, the necessary ventilation and precise alignment with the worktop.

Oven-style cooking with absolute control

The barbecue is equipped with an oven lid made of black vitreous china enamelled steel, which not only offers a refined and contemporary aesthetic, but also provides excellent thermal insulation. This type of coating is resistant to corrosion, exposure to the sun, thermal changes and continuous use, ensuring a long life without discolouration.

The lid system allows the cooking cavity to be completely closed, transforming the barbecue into a convection oven perfect for slow cooking, roasting, smoking or recipes that require thermal stability. In addition, the integrated analogue thermometer in the lid allows you to monitor the internal temperature without opening the lid, ensuring precise, efficient cooking without heat loss.

Authentic flavours without flare-ups

The Discovery 1000R 3B incorporates Beefeater’s patented advanced vaporising heat deflector system, which has an essential dual function:

1. Itredirects and vaporises the juices that fall from the food, returning them in the form of aromatic vapour that imbues each piece with that signature smoky flavour.

2. It minimises the formation of direct flames, as the fat does not come into immediate contact with the burners, which improves safety, reduces the risk of fire and facilitates subsequent cleaning.

This system creates a more uniform and protected cooking atmosphere, ideal for perfect searing without burning the food.

Maximum versatility in every preparation

The cooking surface includes two main cooking zones, both measuring 32 x 49 cm:

• A vitrified cast iron grill, perfect for meats, fish and vegetables.

• A reversible griddle, which allows you to cook everything from eggs and cheeses to delicate seafood or caramelised fruits.

Both pieces are coated with matt porcelain, which prevents food from sticking, facilitates cleaning and improves heat retention. The use of vitrified cast iron ensures durability against extreme temperatures and resistance to rust, maintaining its functionality even after years of use.

In addition, it includes a 60 x 14 cm top warming rack, ideal for keeping cooked food at temperature or toasting bread without exposing it to direct heat.

Structural safety and comfort in prolonged use

It incorporates a system of front ventilation grilles, strategically placed to allow the correct dissipation of heat from inside the module or cooking island. This feature is key in built-in installations, since:

• Prevents overheating of the units.

• Prolongs the useful life of the installation environment.

• It ensures constant cooking without thermal fluctuations.

Thanks to this system, prolonged firing sessions are possible without compromising the safety of the environment or the integrity of the materials.

Immediate and reliable start-up without batteries

Each barbecue burner is equipped with Beefeater’s unique patented quartz ignition system, which allows immediate flame activation with a simple push of a button. This mechanism requires no electricity or batteries, making it ideal for outdoor environments where reliability and autonomy are essential.

The quartz ignition works by mechanical friction, generating a powerful spark even in wet or windy conditions, ensuring a quick and hassle-free cooking start.

Total flexibility for any installation

This model can be operated with butane, propane or natural gas, allowing it to be adapted to different types of installation. To use natural gas, an official conversion kit must be purchased separately to ensure efficient and safe operation.

This flexibility makes the Discovery 1000R 3B an ideal barbecue for single-family homes, country houses, urban terraces or even outdoor dining facilities.
