The Kamado: An Ancestral Barbecue with Iconic Design
Its egg-shaped appearance never goes unnoticed. Yet, behind this singular silhouette lies a millennia-old history. Originating from Japan over 3,000 years ago, the Kamado is considered one of the oldest cooking methods in the world. Its ancestor, the Mushi-Kamado, was then just a simple ovoid terracotta pot intended for steam cooking. Today, reinvented in ceramic and fueled by charcoal, it captivates grilling enthusiasts with its versatility and unique aesthetics.
Controlled Cooking Through Ceramic
The secret of the Kamado lies in its thick ceramic cooking chamber. This material retains and distributes heat evenly, creating a true outdoor oven where air circulates perfectly. Heat radiates gently without ever burning food in contact with flames. The hinged lid maintains high temperatures over time while precisely controlling heat thanks to the integrated thermometer and ventilation openings. Charcoal combustion remains slow and economical: your embers last up to 8 hours without needing to reload. For safe handling, robust hinges accompany the opening and closing of the hood.
Four Cooking Modes in One Device
The Kamado transforms into a complete outdoor kitchen. Thanks to its ability to regulate temperature, it switches from slow low-temperature cooking to fast grilling over hot embers. It smokes, it roasts, it cooks to perfection. From appetizer to dessert, let your culinary creativity run free. Smoking wood chips subtly flavor your preparations for incomparable tastes.
Designed for User Comfort
Its wheeled cart allows easy movement of this imposing barbecue. The semi-retractable cooking grate facilitates reloading charcoal or smoking wood during cooking. The warming rack keeps your dishes at the ideal temperature while you finish your preparations. The two bamboo side shelves unfold as a practical serving table, while the heat-resistant bamboo handle ensures a comfortable grip.
Cleaning becomes simple with the integrated pyrolysis system: heat the barbecue to 260°C so that all food residues reduce to ashes. The central ash catcher then collects debris for quick maintenance. The provided protective cover preserves your investment once the device has completely cooled.
