Abstract
A sideburner assembly attaches to the legs of a barbecue grill and has a substantially flat top surface. The sideburner assembly has a base plate onto which a gas valve, a control knob, and a burner element are mounted. The burner element is mounted in a recessed portion of the base plate and is separated from the gas valve and control knob by a heat shield. The sideburner assembly also comprises a cover plate that has an opening for a cooking grate and an opening for the control knob. The cover plate and the openings in the cover plate are sized so that the top of the control knob and the top of the cooling grate are flush with the top surface of the cover plate.
