With its sleek matte black Shadow Series finish, this grill island brings a modern, high-end look to any outdoor space while offering the power and convenience needed for serious grilling. The unit includes four utility drawers, a single storage drawer, a cabinet door, and a propane tank holder, providing plenty of storage to keep tools, spices, and accessories organized and within reach.
At the heart of this outdoor kitchen is a durable stainless steel countertop. The surface is not only tough enough to handle heavy-duty cooking but also adds a sleek touch to your grilling station. Whether preparing food, serving meals, or entertaining guests, the countertop offers the perfect workspace to complement your cooking experience.
High-Powered Cooking for Any Occasion
The Baron Shadow 490i is built to deliver powerful and consistent heat, ensuring great results with every meal. Its four stainless steel Dual-Tube burners generate a total of 40,000 BTUs, distributing heat evenly across the grill. This ensures that everything, from steaks to vegetables, cooks at the right temperature without cold spots.
For even more cooking versatility, the grill includes a commercial-grade side burner with 10,000 BTUs.

Precision Control and Effortless Operation
Grilling with precision is simple, thanks to the Linear-Flow valves with 180° Sensi-Touch control. These controls allow for fine-tuned temperature adjustments, whether searing at high heat or slow-cooking delicate foods. The Flav-R-Wave cooking system enhances flavor by capturing drippings and vaporizing them, creating a smoky infusion while preventing flare-ups.
The grill is designed for reliability and ease of use. The Sure-Lite electronic dual-electrode ignition ensures a quick and hassle-free start every time. Two Deluxe Accu-Temp thermometers provide accurate temperature readings across both grill ovens, allowing for careful monitoring of cooking progress.
Designed for Convenience, Day or Night
Grilling doesn’t have to stop when the sun goes down. Built-in oven lights and blue LED-illuminated control knobs provide excellent visibility, ensuring precise control even in low-light conditions. The roll-action lids, reinforced with cast aluminum end caps, make lifting easier while keeping heat locked in for efficient cooking.
When it comes to cleanup, the slide-out grease tray system makes maintenance quick and effortless. Instead of spending time scrubbing, you can simply remove the tray and dispose of the grease, keeping your grill clean and ready for the next cookout.
Choose Propane or Natural Gas
The Baron Shadow 490i is available in both propane and natural gas models. The propane version operates with a standard 20-pound tank, while the natural gas version connects directly to your home’s gas line with a 10-foot hose.

Absolutely thrilled with this BBQ griddle! It’s a game-changer for outdoor meals. What made the experience even better was the superb service—fast shipping, clear communication, and real attention to customer satisfaction. Special gratitude to Mathew for his expert advice! Highly recommend both the product and the team behind it!
High quality, and super sturdy products. I use these on my santa maria grill to move my brisquets snd wood around and they hold up well, the length also guarantees that the handles wont get hot when spending alot of time tending your coals.
BBQ Generals was a great business to deal with! After placing my online order, someone called to verify my order and shipping information and they told me when I could expect the product to arrive. And everything showed up in great condition when they said it would. I would order from them anytime!
Great Customer Service. I had several conversations with Matthew who had the patience to answer all my questions in detail and helped me make a great choice.
Performs as advertised in all respects. Replaced a 20 year old Genesis, so I took a leap of faith switching, but so far, very happy I did. I am a newcomer to IR, so I can’t compare the side burner performance to other grills, but it is a great addition if you have never had IR. (For the “anti-grill marks” crowd, I turn a few Grill Grates upside down, which fit perfectly on the side burner, and it produces even caramelization in less than 2 minutes per side).
Best price match plus military discount along with great customer service and communication.
Will match any other certified merchants and still includes any other discounts you may have or others are giving. Plus the veterans discount. Fast free and well packaged delivery to your door. Also will correct quickly with no hassle any order mistakes or missing parts. Best place to stop and shop.
Seems to be high quality. Fits very well over my metal cover. Looks great and keeps the water out of the areas not protected by the metal cover. Good value. Glad I bought it. Somehow, my previous review said one star. That was a mistake.
Had a phone conversation with a member of the staff. Very knowledgeable and price matched a lower price. I will use them in the future for other products.

Love the griddle. Love the heat jacket. Super frustrated that The dimensions that were given to me on a chat were wrong.
I was told that the width of the jacket 35 1/2 inches which was perfect for my 36 inch builtin opening in the granite countertop and cabinet. You cannot imagine the frustration when the actual width of the heat jacket was not 35 1/5 but 38 1/2 inches.
Also BBQ General advertises that there is no sales tax but we were charged over $119 sales tax. Read below direct from their ad on their website......
No Sales Tax + Free Shipping on all orders over $49 within the USA
I do believe Florida is in the USA and we sure as anything paid more than $49.
Over promised and under delivered.
Literally false advertising!!!
The Blackstone did arrive on time and the quality looks good.
But the added expense in modifying the opening is unacceptable and no sales tax promise is completely false advertising.
