Blank FlameZone Pan

Blank FlameZone Pan Description

We designed the FlameZone^® to incorporate a funnel which forces more hot air from the fire-pot upwards to the cooking grate level. This substantially increases the top end cooking temperatures in the grill. This system helps your MAK Grill achieve hotter cooking temperatures more quickly. It also reduces heat recovery time whenever the grill lid is opened.

**Customers with MAK 1-Star Grills with Serial Number 1091 and below, PLEASE contact us before ordering the FlameZone Kit.**

Made entirely from American 304 stainless steel, our FlameZone™ technology takes pellet grill versatility to the next level. Not only can you smoke your favorite foods to perfection, you can grill and sear with direct heat through the perforated holes.

MAK Grills feature a centrally-located removable firepot that sits in the middle of the pit. The FlameZone™ uses a funnel system which sits just above the firepot to divert heat up toward the primary cooking surface. A diffuser fits directly over the top of the firepot and inside the funnel to evenly disperse heat to the cooking surface.

The FlameZone™ pan sits just under the primary grill grates and covers the entire funnel. 88 perforated holes in the top allow heat to pass through, and allow you to use the entire primary cooking space of the smoker as a grill—direct heat but indirect flame enables you to capture a perfect sear without drying out your food. It also means you won’t have food or grease falling directly into your firepot.

When you want to switch back to smoking, baking or roasting (i.e., indirect cooking), just cover the perforations in the FlameZone™ pan with our stainless-steel covers or simply install the Blank FlameZone™ pan. With a separate cover for front and back, you can even cover the back section to smoke a steak and then move it to the front uncovered section for a nice reverse sear.  The Blank FlameZone™ pan gives you the same indirect cooking experience as the FlameZone™ pan covered, without the added cleanup of the covers.

The FlameZone™ has revolutionized our grills. Not only is heat redirected to the grate (where it’s most needed), the funnel system means your pit will reach setpoint temps faster. You’ll also see better heat distribution, more efficient pellet consumption, much hotter grilling temps, and more smoke, all due to the superior heat management of the FlameZone™ system.

It improves so many aspects of pellet grill cooking you’ll kick your gas or charcoal grill to the curb!

The MAK FlameZone™ comes standard on all 2-Star Grills, and is available as a retrofit kit for 2-Star Grills built prior to the 2017 model. You can also purchase a FlameZone™ kit for MAK 1-Star Grills (older models may require a Quick-Change kit rather than the full funnel system).
