Product Highlights

Cast Aluminum Durability

Unlike ceramic kamados that can crack or absorb materials over time, the Blaze Kamado's cast aluminum body shrugs off the elements and is compatible with charcoal, wood, or fire starters without risk of damage.

Professional-Grade Grates

The 12mm-thick 304 stainless steel grates feature a hexagonal design that increases food contact, enhancing grill marks and flavor development across 400 square inches of total cooking area.

Precision Lid Seal

A tongue-and-groove lid seal replaces the felt gasket found on most kamados, locking in heat and smoke for consistent results while eliminating a common wear-and-tear part.

Smart Cooking Flexibility

A split hinged main grate, a second mid-level grate, and an oversized analog temperature gauge give you full control over smoking, roasting, and searing — all from a single built-in unit.
