The Wolf 36-inch outdoor gas grill (OG36) is a well-equipped premium grill, but the first thing to know is availability. Wolf marks it "Limited Availability," and Abt lists it as no longer available, so it may be phasing out. On paper it has two 25,000 BTU grill burners, a 25,000 BTU infrared sear zone, a 14,000 BTU infrared rotisserie and 1,080 sq. in. of cooking area. The roughly $7,805 list price comes from Sub-Zero Wolf's Canadian site in US dollars. Check stock before you design around it.

Design and build
The OG36 measures 36 W x 26.5 H x 29 D inches and comes in stainless only. Hood assist, halogen interior lights and LED-lit knobs give it the polish you'd expect next to Wolf indoor appliances. Ferguson lists it as made in the USA. Stainless hexagonal grates and ceramic briquettes are standard.
Performance on paper: burners, sear zone and rotisserie
There are four burners: two 25,000 BTU grill burners (50,000 BTU), a 25,000 BTU infrared sear zone and a 14,000 BTU infrared rotisserie burner. The dedicated sear zone is the useful part, since you can sear on one side while the main burners run at medium.
Ferguson lists 1,080 sq. in. of total cooking area, which likely includes the warming rack; Wolf doesn't publish the primary grate area. That makes direct comparison with Lynx or DCS harder. A smoking tray handles wood chips, and the two-position rotisserie suits chickens and roasts.
Who it's for (and who should skip it)
Buy it if you can confirm stock, want Wolf's look outdoors and value a 2-year full warranty. It suits households that sear often but don't need a 42-inch island.
Skip it if you're early in a long outdoor-kitchen build. A grill that may not be orderable in six months is a risky anchor. The DCS Series 9 or Hestan 36-inch are safer bets, with clearer specs.
Price, warranty and service
Our roughly $7,805 figure is the US-dollar list price on Sub-Zero Wolf's Canadian site, marked "Limited Availability." The US outdoor-grill page returned an error, and US retailers withhold pricing under minimum advertised pricing. Treat the number as a guide. Coverage is 2 years full and 5 years limited, per Ferguson; Abt lists 2 years parts and labor.
If you're set on Wolf outdoors, ask for a dealer package quote and confirm stock first.
How it compares
The DCS Series 9 36-inch grill is the closest alternative, with 1,164 sq. in. and an optional infrared burner. The Hestan 36-inch grill adds color options, and our Lynx vs Hestan grill comparison covers the bigger names. See our best built-in grills and the outdoor kitchen hub.
Our verdict
The Wolf OG36 is a capable 36-inch grill with a real infrared sear zone and the best full-coverage term in this group. But Wolf's "Limited Availability" label and a retailer's "no longer available" note make it a risky choice. Buy it only if stock is confirmed; otherwise look at DCS or Hestan.
