Napoleon – Legacy Prestige Pro 500 Gas Grills

Napoleon Legacy Prestige® PRO 500 Gas Grill

The Legacy Prestige PRO 500 is the PRO-tier version of Napoleon’s Prestige 500 — the same proven six-burner cooking platform, built out with a full set of professional-grade features that the standard Prestige doesn’t have. If you want the Prestige 500’s performance with the PRO’s lighting, storage, and finishing details, this is where that combination lives.

Six Burners, 1800°F Searing

The PRO 500 runs four main stainless steel tube burners producing 48,000 BTUs, an infrared SIZZLE ZONE™ side burner, and an 18,000 BTU infrared rear rotisserie burner — 80,000 BTUs total across 900 square inches of cooking area. That’s enough grill to cook up to 31 burgers at once across the main grate, with the side and rear burners handling specialized cooking independently.

The SIZZLE ZONE™ side burner reaches 1800°F — the temperature required to produce a real sear. The kind that forms a proper caramelized crust and locks in juices rather than just browning the outside. It also functions as a standard gas side burner for sauces, sautés, and anything else that needs a separate flame. The rear infrared rotisserie burner pairs with the included commercial-grade rotisserie kit for slow, even roasting — whole chickens, roasts, and anything else worth the time.

PRO Features That Set It Apart

The LED Spectrum NIGHT LIGHT™ control knobs are one of the most visible differences between the PRO and standard Prestige line. They cycle through the full color spectrum and can be set to any color you want — not just red and blue. SafetyGlow still turns them red when a burner is on, so safety is never sacrificed for style.

Proximity lighting detects your presence and projects a Napoleon logo onto the ground in front of the grill. It’s a detail unique to the PRO series — and one that makes a real difference when you’re moving around the grill at night. Two interior halogen lights illuminate the cooking surface when the hood is open, so you’re not squinting at food after dark.

The enclosed storage cabinet underneath is lit inside and fitted with soft-close doors. The interior lights mean you’re not digging blindly for tools or accessories. The soft-close mechanism prevents slamming and keeps the hinges working properly through years of regular use — a small thing that adds up over a grill’s lifetime.

Built to PRO Standards

The 9.5mm thick WAVE™ cast stainless steel cooking grids are heavier and more durable than standard grids — better heat retention, more consistent sear marks, and longer-lasting performance over time. Dual-level stainless steel sear plates underneath the grids vaporize drippings before they reach the burners, keeping flare-ups controlled and food moist throughout a long cook.

The exterior body, basin, tube burners, sear plates, and cooking grids are all the same high-quality stainless steel — the materials that take the most abuse are built to the same standard as what’s visible on the outside. Chrome accents on the exterior add a polished, professional finish that holds up against corrosion and the elements.

The ACCU-Probe temperature gauge in the hood gives you an accurate reading on cooking temperature without constantly lifting the lid. An integrated ice bucket in the side shelf keeps drinks cold at the grill, and a built-in cutting board gives you a dedicated prep surface without a separate table.

A Note on “Legacy”

The Legacy designation means this is Napoleon’s previous-generation PRO 500 — the same high-performance grill that established the PRO series reputation, now available while supplies last. If you want the full PRO 500 feature set at a strong value, the Legacy is the smart way to get there before it’s gone.

Propane or Natural Gas

The Legacy Prestige PRO 500 is available in both propane and natural gas. Propane gives you the flexibility of a tank. Natural gas connects directly to a gas line for a cleaner, more permanent setup in an outdoor kitchen. Our team at Fireplace Gallery can help you determine which configuration makes the most sense for how you cook and how your space is set up.

Warranty

The Legacy Prestige PRO 500 is backed by Napoleon’s lifetime bumper-to-bumper warranty on major components — the same coverage that applies across the full PRO lineup and one of the strongest warranties available on any gas grill.
