Four Powerful 17 MJ/hr Cast-Iron Burners
At the heart of the BMG7642SA are four cast-iron burners, each producing:
17 MJ/hr
Together they deliver:
68 MJ/hr Total Main Burner Output
Cast iron heats quickly, retains heat well and provides durable everyday BBQ performance. The four independently controlled burners also give you flexibility to create separate cooking zones across the barbecue.
Use higher heat for:
- Steaks
- Burgers
- Lamb
- Kebabs
- Seafood
Or reduce selected burners for:
- Chicken
- Vegetables
- Sausages
- Indirect cooking
- Larger roasts
Generous 3,740 cm² Cooking Area
The BMG7642SA provides 3,740 cm² of total cooking area, giving you plenty of room for family BBQs and entertaining without moving into the footprint of a five-burner model.
The main cooking surface includes:
- 1 porcelain-enamel cast-iron hotplate
- 2 split porcelain-enamel cast-iron grills
This layout lets you grill and hotplate-cook at the same time while adjusting the four burners independently beneath the cooking surfaces.
Porcelain-Enamel Cast-Iron Grill & Hotplate
The 7000 Classic uses porcelain-enamelled cast iron for both the grill and hotplate.
Cast iron provides excellent heat retention and even cooking, while the enamel coating helps protect the surface and simplifies maintenance.
Use the Grill For
- Steak
- Chicken
- Lamb
- Burgers
- Kebabs
- Fish
- Vegetables
Use the Hotplate For
- Bacon
- Eggs
- Sausages
- Onions
- Smash burgers
- Prawns
- Breakfast cooking
Powerful 17 MJ/hr Side Burner
The BMG7642SA includes a 17 MJ/hr 304-grade stainless steel side burner with a cast-iron trivet.
Use it for:
- Sauces
- Vegetables
- Onions
- Pasta
- Frying pans
- Saucepans
- Boiling water
- Side dishes
When the side burner isn’t required, the lid folds down to create an additional work surface.
Double-Layer 304-Grade Stainless Steel Roasting Hood
The BMG7642SA features a double-layer 304-grade stainless steel roasting hood, allowing you to move beyond conventional open grilling.
Use the hood down for:
- Roasting
- Whole chicken
- Larger cuts of meat
- Indirect cooking
- Slower cooking
- Hood-down grilling
The double-layer hood helps retain heat during longer cooks.
Full-Width Glass Viewing Window
A full-width glass viewing window lets you keep an eye on your food without repeatedly opening the hood and releasing heat.
It’s particularly useful when cooking:
- Roasts
- Whole chickens
- Brisket
- Large cuts
- Indirect cooks
Integrated Temperature Gauge
The hood also features an integrated temperature gauge, giving you an easy reference for the cooking temperature inside the barbecue.
Combined with the viewing window, this makes longer hood-down cooks easier to monitor without constantly lifting the lid.
Stainless Steel Vaporisers
The BMG7642SA uses two stainless steel vaporisers over the burners.
Beefeater designed the vaporisers to help spread flame and heat across the cooking surface while reducing flare-ups caused by grease reaching the burners.
This contributes to more controlled, even cooking.
Two Elevated Stainless Steel Cooking Racks
The barbecue includes two split elevated stainless steel cooking racks above the main grill and hotplate.
Use them for:
- Keeping food warm
- Warming bread
- Holding vegetables
- Resting cooked meat
- Moving food away from direct heat
The racks can be lifted and removed when you need more clearance over the main cooking surface.
Quartz Start Ignition
The BMG7642SA uses Beefeater’s Quartz Start ignition system, designed for quick, straightforward starting.
The side burner also uses Quartz Start ignition.
Full-Width Grease Tray on Telescopic Rails
Cleanup is simplified by a full-width stainless steel catchment tray positioned at the front of the barbecue.
The tray slides out on telescopic rails, making it easier to access for cleaning and replacing the foil catchment tin.
The hotplate also uses raised sides and a dedicated opening to help direct grease into the collection system.
Fully Welded 304-Grade Stainless Steel Firebox
The firebox is manufactured from 304-grade stainless steel with a fully welded construction.
Beefeater uses exterior seam welding to reduce the chance of moisture and grease entering joints, helping improve durability over time.
Practical 304-Grade Stainless Steel Trolley
The BMG7642SA comes with a 304-grade stainless steel cabinet trolley.
The trolley includes:
- Enclosed cabinet storage
- 2 trolley doors
- Stainless steel side tables
- Tool bars on both sides
- Lockable castor wheels
- Height-adjustable feet
It provides useful storage for your gas cylinder and BBQ accessories while keeping everything organised around the cooking station.
Lockable Castors & Adjustable Feet
Wide lockable castor wheels make the BBQ easy to reposition when required.
Once in place, push-down catches lock the wheels, while the adjustable front feet help level the BBQ on uneven outdoor surfaces.
LPG with Natural Gas Conversion Available
The BMG7642SA comes configured for LPG.
Beefeater also confirms that a Natural Gas conversion kit is available, allowing the barbecue to be converted where a suitable Natural Gas connection is available.
Gas conversion and connection should always comply with Beefeater’s instructions and applicable Australian gas requirements.
BMG7642SA vs BMG7652SA – 4 Burner or 5 Burner?
Both models belong to the Beefeater 7000 Classic range and share many of the same features.
BMG7642SA – 4 Burner
- 4 × 17 MJ/hr cast-iron burners
- 68 MJ/hr main burner output
- 3,740 cm² cooking area
- 1,602mm overall width
- 17 MJ/hr side burner
- 304-grade stainless trolley
- Full-width hood window

BMG7652SA – 5 Burner

- 1,758mm overall width
- 17 MJ/hr side burner
- 304-grade stainless trolley
- Full-width hood window
- No flame failure
- No rear burner
The 4 Burner is the better choice if you want the construction and features of the 7000 Classic but don’t need the additional width and cooking capacity of the 5 Burner.
7000 Classic vs 7000 Premium
The Classic models retain the large cooking surface, 304-grade stainless construction, viewing window and side burner, but the Premium range adds features such as:
- Flame-failure protection
- Cast stainless steel main burners
- More powerful 23 MJ/hr side burner
- Rear ceramic burner
- Hood lighting
- LED illuminated controls
- More elaborate trolley storage features
The 7000 Classic is ideal if you want the core cooking capacity and durable stainless construction of the 7000 platform without paying for every Premium feature.
