The burner has a solenoid gas valve, and a bimetal switch for cutting off power of the solenoid gas valve is included in the interior of the main body when a predetermined temperature is sensed. A fan for introducing outer air to the interior of the main body is included on the exterior of the main body, and the bimetal switch is included in a control panel part of the interior of the main body, which supplies power to the fan when a predetermined temperature is sensed. A thermal sensor is mounted on a liquid pipe through which water flows out from the grill, and a micom is included at the main body, which receives data from the thermal sensor so as to output a control signal to the cooling system and the solenoid gas valve. Accordingly, overheating of the interior of the barbecue system is prevented even if the barbecue grill is used for a long time in an airtight state, the temperature of the water is kept within a predetermined range, and it is possible to prevent water from leaking when the operation of the barbecue grill is stopped.
