There is disclosed a semiautomatic timed shut-off valve assembly adapted for use in a gas grill including a normally closed supply valve for supplying gas to one or more manual flow control valves, a manual valve opening member for actuating said supply valve to an opened position, and a timer for causing said supply valve to remain in an open position for a variable preset time. Also disclosed is an arrangement for manually overriding the timer to permit the supply valve to remain open for an indefinite time period.
