Napoleon Rogue Grill Series: An Overview of Features and Benefits
The Napoleon Rogue Grills are a BBQ series that stands out from the crowd. With beauty, premium grilling performance, and durability, this series has been a best-seller for a while now. While there are more than 30 Rogue series models to choose from, there are three main Rogue series lines that they are categorised under. So let’s take a look at these three series lines to see their features and benefits.
The Rogue Series
The original Napoleon Rogue series takes its place as one of the most affordable configurations of the Rogue series lines. However, nothing about these grills feels in any way cheap. Instead, these grills come with porcelainized cast iron wave cooking grids that allow even heat transfer, a nice high-end sear, and boasts a reversible design for added versatility.
The cast aluminium firebox ensures durability and resistance to rust, meaning this grill is prepped to give you some very long-lasting functionality. With the instant Jetfire ignition system, it is also easy to start up your grill, being quick and reliable every single time.
This series even offers the Napoleon exclusive cross-over lighting system. This is a fail-safe mechanism that allows each burner to be lit up with the other. This enables one-handed operation, as well as automatic relighting on the off chance that a flame is extinguished by the wind.
When it comes to the exterior of the grill, the quality stays just as high. With handles that make controlling the grill an easy task and a sleek lid that lifts easily and retains heat perfectly, this grill is made to deliver only the best.
You can get a total cooking space of 495 to 710 sq. in. with the grills in this series, which is enough for a sizable crowd. These grills also feature convenient elements like the folding side shelves and enclosed cart design; all caked in a black that will look good in any outdoor setting. Altogether, these grills offer an incredible set of features, especially considering their price point.
The Rogue XT Series
These grills are a step up from the original Rogue Series, offering an expanded range of features, all while maintaining the value that the Rogue grills are renowned for. All the features mentioned in the original Rogue Series are also found in these grills.
The upgrades include the inclusion of an infrared Sizzle Zone side burner, which allows you the ability to reach temperatures of up to 1000 degrees Celsius. This gives you the opportunity to achieve the most mouthwatering sear, along with a delectable caramelised crust on your steaks or burgers, while also allowing you to have these meats retain all their juicy goodness for enhanced flavour and texture.
Another upgrade is the high-top lid design which provides a better visual balance to the larger Rogue models without compromising on the performance or oven-like capabilities offered through its high heat retention.
For those looking to cater to larger groups, the Rogue XT offers sizes beyond the original series starting from 570 sq. in. all the way to 980. For example, the RXT625 can serve up to 39 people with a total of 980 sq. in. of cooking space.
This series is simply an upgraded version of the original series, also offering a choice of black or stainless steel finishes. Overall, the Rogue XT grills offer an exceptional grilling experience that once again combines performance, versatility, and visual appeal.

Napoleon Rogue SE Series
The Napoleon Rogue SE Series stands at the pinnacle of performance among the three Rogue Grill series. While these grills are positioned towards the higher end of the entry-level price range, they still incorporate features typically associated with mid to high-end models.
Once again, all the fantastic features that appear in the Rogue XT and original Rogue series can be found in these models, with some additional advantages. The standout feature is the inclusion of the infrared rear rotisserie burner system, which allows for both high-end searing and slow spit roasting. The burner also requires minimal preheating time and generates the ideal level of heat in order to keep your meat moist and juicy.
When it comes to the exterior of the grill, the control knobs are equipped with night light backlighting, which can enhance usability in the night or low light conditions. In addition, these grills come with a total cooking area of 710 to 980 sq. in. with some extra preparation space in the form of large folding side shelves. It also features a convenient bottle opener.
Overall, the Rogue SE Series is unparalleled in its grilling experience, offering exceptional functionality and value. And with the choice of black and stainless steel finishes, style too.
