What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly value the Char-Broil Kettleman for its consistent cooking performance. The TRU-Infrared system successfully minimizes flare-ups, delivering remarkably even heat across the large cooking surface, which is ideal for predictable results and low-and-slow methods. Reviewers appreciate the excellent heat retention. The primary trade-off noted is the reduced ability to reach extremely high searing temperatures due to the anti-flare design. Some users also found the initial assembly challenging and expressed minor concerns regarding the ash pan and long-term finish durability. This grill is highly recommended for those prioritizing consistent, controlled charcoal cooking over maximum searing power.
