Or have you seen the new Kamado Joe BBQs. Once pre-heated, Kamado grills are very stable and can cook at low or high temperatures for as long as the grill has charcoal and oxygen. Kamado grills are durable and often made from ceramic compounds.
Kamado grills take their name from the term used to describe a traditional Japanese wood or charcoal fueled cooking appliance called a kamado. A traditional kamado was made from clay or other ceramic material to create a large urn or "egg" like vessel, similar to a tandoor, whose round shape and heavy construction allowed unique cooking benefits.
Undoubtedly, ceramic grills are the best kamado grills in terms of temperature control, durability and versatility. Definitely an investment for years to come. Take a look at the new Kamado Joe Classic 3 and if your cooking for a crowd the Kamado Joe Big Joe 3 is a must.
