Know before you buy
With 363 square inches of cooking space, this grill is sized to comfortably feed 6 to 8 people at once. It provides enough surface area to handle a variety of meats and vegetables simultaneously.
The system features a lever that rotates blades inside the bottom of the bowl to sweep ash through the vents. The ash then drops directly into a removable catcher, making cleanup much faster and cleaner than manual scooping.
Yes, the grill features adjustable dampers on both the lid and the bowl. By opening or closing these vents, you can control the airflow and manage the internal temperature for different cooking styles, such as searing or slow roasting.
The porcelain-enameled bowl and lid are designed to be rust-resistant and scratch-resistant, making them well-suited for outdoor environments. While it is built to withstand the elements, using a grill cover is still recommended to extend the life of the hardware and keep the cooking surface clean.
Yes, the grill includes an integrated lid hook. This allows you to slide the lid to the side of the bowl, keeping it out of the way while you flip burgers or check on your food.
The grill is equipped with two all-weather wheels designed for stability and mobility. They handle most standard backyard surfaces, like wood decks or concrete patios, quite easily.
