Review Monument Gas Grill Mesa 415BZ
I recently got a Monument Mesa grill and am very impressed—it’s ideal for backyard grilling. This versatile unit can replace backyard smokers and griddles, adding a pizza stone or a griddle you can do about anything you can think of.
It features four front-to-back burners, each with lighted controls and electronic ignition. There is also a lid-mounted temperature gauge and a fixed bottle opener for convenience.
For example, I enjoy cold smoking cheese and pork chops. After a 5 hour smoke, I refrigerate the chops for a few days before grilling them for great results. After sharing these at a men’s group, I’ve become the main cook for all of our gathering.
NOTE: Cold Smoke is smoking with “NO HEAT”
Monument’s “Smoke Box” simplifies cold smoking, such as for cheese.
NOTE: “Hot Smoking” 175* on the Low end to 275*-300*
Hot smoking occurs between 175°F and 300°F, with adjustable heat thanks to front-to-back burners and individual controls. With the Monument Mesa, you can smoke larger items like ribs, pulled pork, turkey, chicken, or even prime rib—almost anything you want.
Let’s talk BBQ
NOTE: “BBQ” 300* to 375* Low and slow
The Monument Mesa 415BZ is perfect for barbecuing, thanks to its porcelain-coated cast iron grates that offer even heating and are easy to clean. This versatile grill invites you to experiment with your cooking. Think of it like an oven—only on wheels. Using a griddle or pizza stone expands your culinary options, and it’s also excellent for making rotisserie chicken.

GRILLING & “The Broil Zone”
NOTE: “Grilling” is HOT and FAST 400* and up
The Mesa features an exclusive “Broil Zone” situated between the first and second burners, which is independently controlled. This innovative design enables the right grill grates to rapidly reach temperatures exceeding 650°F, making it well-suited for tasks such as searing steaks or burgers, or crisping foods prior to serving.
Broil Zone
I like the controls, The smaller lighted control is for the sear burner, Above each knob is a picture showing what burner it controls.
Side Burner 12000 BTU
The Mesa features a convenient side burner that’s perfect for preparing sides or sauces. You can check the warming rack through the HD glass panel in the lid. It also includes storage space for your gas bottle and other outdoor equipment.
Quality products come with strong warranties. The Mesa Grill includes an 8-year warranty.
