Know before you buy
The Slow ‘N Sear® insert acts as a charcoal basket that separates your fuel from the rest of the grill. This creates a dedicated two-zone cooking environment, allowing you to easily switch between high-heat searing and low-and-slow indirect smoking.
Yes, the custom-fit side shelf is designed to fold down against the side of the kettle. This makes it easy to save space during storage or when you need to maneuver the grill in tighter areas.
The EasySpin grate features a hinged design that allows you to lift a section of the grate to add more charcoal or wood chunks without removing the entire cooking surface. Its heavy-duty construction also helps retain heat better than thinner, standard grates.
The grill uses a high-flow lid vent system that allows for fine-tuned airflow adjustments. By managing the intake and exhaust vents, you can maintain steady temperatures for long cooks or open them up for high-heat grilling.
While the finish provides a sleek, upgraded aesthetic, its primary purpose is durability. The porcelain enamel coating protects the thick gauge steel body from rust and weather damage, ensuring the grill lasts through many seasons of use.
Yes, because this is a standard 22-inch kettle configuration, most universal 22-inch accessories like rotisserie rings or pizza attachments will fit. However, the included Slow ‘N Sear® insert is specifically engineered for this grill's dimensions to optimize airflow.
