Stok 4-Burner Quattro SGP4330SB

The Bottom Line

Recently a major grill maker told me that the future was in accessories.. The Stok Quattro may just be the perfect design for this. With removable cooking grate sections you can convert to use a griddle, vegetable basket or pizza stone without turning off the grill or even stopping cooking. The unique design of this grill gives you a tremendous amount of versatility in a complete unit. The best part is that all these extras come standard so the $400USD price tag gets you everything. Hopefully Home Depot, the exclusive dealer, will have replacement parts and maybe even more toys to play with.

Guide Review - Stok 4-Burner Quattro Gas Grill Model# SGP4330SB

The Stok Quattro is truly a unique gas grill. The two porcelain coated cast iron cooking grates have round, removable sections in the middle that can be swapped out for accessories like a pizza stone, a griddle, or a vegetable basket. The best part is that these accessories come standard and are not an additional expense. You even get a place to store these accessories in the cabinet and you get a special tool to remove them while hot. This means you can switch between the different components without turning off the grill or even breaking pace, with the exception of the pizza stone which cannot be gripped by the tool.

Beyond this, the Stok Quattro is a standard 4-burner gas grill. The 48,000 BTUs are plenty to heat the 475 square inch primary grilling space. The porcelain coated cooking grates are heavy enough to give you good heat transfer and grill marks though the pop up design makes using a spatula a little clumsy (probably not enough to bother you though). Though it doesn't have any other extras, the design is attractive and modern and the construction is fairly good.

This is a new grill from a manufacturer that hasn't had a lot of success in the U.S. market yet though they have been around for years. If successful we could be looking at a large product line. I would suggest that if you are only looking for a grill to cook burger and steaks that this might not be the grill for you. As a standard gas grill it is okay. It is the accessory system that really makes this gas grill stand out.
