Five Powerful 17 MJ/hr Cast-Iron Burners
The BBG7650SA uses five cast-iron burners, each producing:
17 MJ/hr
Together they deliver:
85 MJ/hr Total Burner Output
That's substantially more burner power than the five-burner 1200 Series, which uses 15 MJ/hr burners.
The five independently controlled burners also allow you to create different heat zones across the cooking surface.
Turn up the heat for:
- Steak
- Burgers
- Lamb
- Kebabs
- Seafood
- High-temperature grilling
Or create lower-temperature zones for:
- Chicken
- Sausages
- Vegetables
- Larger cuts
- Indirect cooking
- Roasting
Huge 4,480cm² Cooking Area
The Beefeater 7000 Classic 5 Burner provides a generous 4,480cm² total cooking area, giving you plenty of room when cooking for family and friends.
The cooking surface includes:
- 1 porcelain-enamelled cast-iron hotplate
- 2 split porcelain-enamelled cast-iron grills
The split-grill design also gives you more flexibility to customise the cooking surface to suit how you like to BBQ.
Porcelain-Enamelled Cast-Iron Grill & Hotplate
Beefeater combines the heat retention of cast iron with a rust-resistant porcelain enamel finish.
Cast iron heats quickly, distributes heat effectively and retains that heat while you're cooking.
Use the Grills For
- Steak
- Chicken
- Lamb
- Burgers
- Fish
- Kebabs
- Vegetables
Use the Hotplate For
- Bacon
- Eggs
- Sausages
- Onions
- Smash burgers
- Prawns
- Breakfast cooking
The combination gives you the traditional versatility of an Australian BBQ with plenty of room to cook different foods simultaneously.
304-Grade Stainless Steel Construction
One of the major upgrades with the Beefeater 7000 Series is its use of 304-grade stainless steel.
The BBG7650SA features a 304-grade stainless steel exterior, fully welded 304-grade stainless steel firebox and 304-grade stainless steel roasting hood.
Beefeater uses an exterior seam weld on the firebox to help prevent moisture and grease entering the joints, improving durability and helping prevent corrosion.
This makes the 7000 Classic particularly well suited to a permanent premium outdoor-kitchen installation.
Double-Layer 304 Stainless Steel Roasting Hood
The BBG7650SA features a double-layer 304-grade stainless steel roasting hood.
Close the hood and the BBQ becomes much more than a conventional open grill.
Use it for:
- Whole chickens
- Roast meats
- Larger cuts
- Indirect cooking
- Hood-down grilling
- Slower BBQ cooking
The double-layer construction helps make the 7000 Series a versatile platform for both everyday grilling and more involved hood-down cooking.
Full-Width Glass Viewing Window
A standout feature of the 7000 Classic is its full-width glass viewing window.
Instead of continually opening the hood to check your food, you can look through the window and keep the heat inside the cooking chamber.
It's particularly useful when cooking:
- Brisket
- Whole chicken
- Roasts
- Larger cuts
- Indirect meals
- Longer hood-down cooks
Integrated Temperature Gauge
The roasting hood also includes an integrated temperature gauge, giving you an easy indication of the temperature inside the BBQ.
Combined with the full-width viewing window, this makes it much easier to monitor longer cooks without unnecessarily opening the hood.
Stainless Steel Vaporisers
The BBG7650SA uses stainless steel vaporisers above its cast-iron burners.
These help efficiently disperse the flames across the grill and hotplate while reducing flare-ups from grease and food drippings.
The result is a cooking system designed to deliver strong, consistent heat across the large cooking surface.
Elevated Stainless Steel Cooking Racks
The 7000 Classic also provides split elevated stainless steel cooking racks above the primary cooking surface.
Use them to:
- Keep cooked food warm
- Warm burger buns
- Hold sausages
- Move food away from direct heat
- Create additional elevated cooking space
They can also be lifted and removed when you need more clearance underneath.
Full-Width Front-Access Grease Tray
Cleaning a large BBQ can be a chore, so Beefeater has given the BBG7650SA a practical grease-management system.
The hotplate features raised sides to help prevent grease and oil spilling over its edges. Excess grease is instead directed through the hotplate opening into a replaceable foil catchment tin.
Underneath is a full-width stainless steel grease tray mounted on telescopic rails.
This allows you to pull the tray out from the front of the BBQ for easier cleaning and replacement of the foil catchment tin.
Quartz Start Ignition
The BBG7650SA uses Beefeater's Quartz Start ignition system.
The simple ignition system is designed to get the burners firing quickly so you can start cooking without a complicated startup procedure.
Built for a Premium Outdoor Kitchen
At 976mm wide, the BBG7650SA gives you a substantial five-burner cooking platform without requiring an excessively wide appliance opening.
Its overall dimensions are:
976mm W × 628mm D
with a height of 555mm with the hood closed.
That makes it particularly well suited to:
- Custom outdoor kitchens
- Stone benchtops
- Large alfresco areas
- Family entertaining spaces
- Premium outdoor kitchens
- Kitchens with separate sinks and refrigeration
- Kitchens incorporating a separate side burner
For cabinetry and stone design, always use Beefeater's official cut-out and clearance specifications rather than using the appliance's overall dimensions as the cut-out.
LPG with Natural Gas Conversion Available
The BBG7650SA comes configured for LPG, but Natural Gas conversion is available.
Beefeater confirms the compatible kit is the BNGB001 Natural Gas Conversion Kit, which is designed for compatible 7000, 1600, 1500 and 1200 Series built-in BBQs.
Gas conversion and connection should be completed in accordance with Beefeater's instructions and applicable Australian gas requirements.
Compatible Heat Shields for Outdoor Kitchens
For built-in installations, Beefeater lists dedicated heat-shield options for the BBG7650SA.
These include compatible rear and side heat shields for 7000 Series BBQs installed in outdoor-kitchen settings.
This is particularly important when designing cabinetry around the appliance. Always follow Beefeater's current installation instructions and required clearances for the specific installation.
BBG7650SA vs 1200 Series 5 Burner – What's the Difference?
The 7000 Classic is the more premium option and has several meaningful upgrades over the 1200 Series.
Beefeater 7000 Classic BBG7650SA
- 5 × 17 MJ/hr burners
- 85 MJ/hr total output
- 304-grade stainless steel
- Fully welded 304 stainless firebox
- 4,480cm² cooking area
- Split cast-iron grills
- Full-width glass viewing window
- Full-width front-access drip tray on telescopic rails
- 976mm overall width
Beefeater 1200 Series 5 Burner
- 5 × 15 MJ/hr burners
- 75 MJ/hr total output
- More entry-level construction
- Cast-iron cooking surfaces
- Glass viewing window
- Lower price point
For customers building a premium permanent outdoor kitchen, the 7000 Classic is the stronger proposition. The 17 MJ/hr burners, 304 stainless construction, larger cooking system and more sophisticated grease management justify positioning it above the 1200 Series.
BBG7650SA vs BBG7640SA – 5 Burner or 4 Burner?
The choice largely comes down to cooking capacity and available kitchen space.
BBG7650SA – 5 Burner
- 5 × 17 MJ/hr burners
- 85 MJ/hr total output
- 4,480cm² cooking area
- 976mm overall width
- Better for larger families
- Better for regular entertaining
BBG7640SA – 4 Burner
- Four main burners
- More compact footprint
- Smaller cooking area
- Better when outdoor-kitchen space is limited
If you have the available space, the BBG7650SA gives you significantly more flexibility for entertaining and cooking multiple foods simultaneously.
