Every premium ceramic kamado cooks the same way: thick ceramic walls, lumpwood charcoal, smoking, roasting, baking and searing. The difference is what you get in the box and what you pay for it.

On the day, as soon as your pallet is loaded, they text you your estimated arrival time. If a driver ever arrives unannounced, you can refuse the delivery and we arrange another day.

Bought this to go with the evo 22inch and they both compliment each other perfectly. One for low and slow for bigger cooks and the smaller one for more everyday bbq cooking for two. Easy to use and can cook a large amount of food on a small amount of charcoal.
