Ahhhh... excuse the pun...but... you are hosed.
one cubic foot of propane = 2,516 BTUs, while one cubic foot of natural gas = 1,030 BTUs... but, it is cheaper to run natural gas which is why a lot of people run it. That and most houses have a gas line run to it. I don't care much for gas inside of the house and when I built the patio, I went propane because it burns hotter and is easier to manipulate. I rarely use the gas grill for anything beyond searing, but when I need a good reverse sear, I have it covered.
FWIW, they make a propane conversion for most grills if one were so inclined, but it might just be easier for you to purchase a searing torch based on need. I use my old Benzo that I keep out in the shed for the occasional plumbing job. It cranks out about 3500* so it also gets the job done... if you don't mind the mythical "torch taste"...
