The noble art of grilling has a long history, and there’s a lot that modern pitmasters can learn from the old school. The kamado grill is a perfect example — after all, Japanese and Chinese chefs have used ceramic charcoal cookers called kamado for thousands of years.
Now, today’s cookout lovers have access to a modern form of this incredibly versatile cooker: the kamado grill. What is a kamado grill, and how does it work? We’ll tell you all about these popular ceramic BBQ grills and why they’re so popular for grilling, smoking and more.
The Grilla Grills Kong kamado grill, hard at work doing what it does best.
A kamado grill is a type of charcoal grill with an insulated interior, similar to the type traditionally used in Japan and China. Today’s kamado grills, like the Grilla Grills Kong, use 21st century materials and design techniques to update this classic into a uniquely versatile cooking device for chefs around the world.
When you open the Kong, you’ll see one of the major things that make kamado grills so special: a heavy-duty ceramic firebox inside the body of the grill. The ceramic lining gives a kamado outstanding heat and moisture retention. That makes it easy to keep it at a consistent temperature for an extended period.
Kamado grills run on charcoal, but not just any charcoal. Your kamado grill will run best on natural lump charcoal. This chunky and irregular form of charcoal is free of the additives you’ll often find in charcoal briquettes, and it burns hotter to give you more efficient heat.
