Know before you buy
At 77.2 lbs, the grill is substantial and provides a very stable base for cooking. However, you should ensure the surface you place it on is level and heat-resistant to safely support the weight and high temperatures of the ceramic shell.
Yes. The thick ceramic walls and the included heat deflector allow you to manage airflow for long, low-temperature cooks, while the cast-iron vent provides the precision needed to reach high temperatures for searing.
The grill offers 150 square inches of cooking space. This is generally enough to cook a whole chicken, a small roast, or a few burgers and sausages simultaneously.
The bundle includes a heavy-duty, waterproof, and UV-resistant cover designed to protect the ceramic and hardware from the elements. While it is durable, storing the grill in a shed or garage during the off-season will always extend the life of the components.
The grill comes mostly assembled, but you will need to attach the handle and the top vent. The process is straightforward and typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes.
