Spotted a great price drop on the Kasai Medium Konro Grill over at Amazon. Usually, these sit around the £499 mark, so this is a solid discount if youre looking to step up your outdoor cooking or want a dedicated grill for high-heat searing.
If you arent familiar with Konro grills, they are traditional Japanese-style tabletop barbecues designed for extremely hot, efficient charcoal cooking (like Yakitori). What makes the Kasai stand out is that its designed and manufactured right here in the UK in partnership with Michelin-starred chef Tommy Banks, rather than being an expensive import.
Its built like an absolute tank and is the perfect size for feeding 4-8 people great for a family setup.
Key Features:
Insane Heat Retention: It uses natural, sustainable Vermiculite mineral tiles for insulation rather than standard ceramic. These reflect heat back into the grill, allowing it to maintain consistent working temperatures between 107C to 350C (and it can reach up to 750C if you use proper Binchotan charcoal).
Built to Last: The frame is made from heavy-duty, brushed British stainless steel with floating feet and carry handles. It weighs a hefty 14.7kg.
Fuel Efficient: Because the insulation is so good, the charcoal burns significantly longer than in a standard kettle BBQ or drum smoker.
Eco-Friendly Tiles: When the inner tiles eventually reach the end of their lifespan, they dont go to landfill you can actually crush them up and use them as a soil conditioner in the garden. You just buy replacement tiles rather than a whole new grill.
Versatile: Its brilliant for skewers, seafood, and flatbreads, but its also the ultimate tool for getting a rapid, crusty sear on steaks or finishing off sous-vide meats without overcooking the center.
Specs:
Dimensions: 465mm (L) x 355mm (W) x 210mm (H) (Note: adjust if your deal is for the Medium Long version which is 540x265x210)
Weight: 14.7kg
Includes a heavy-duty stainless steel cooking grid.
Note: Highly recommend picking up some Binchotan or good quality lumpwood charcoal to get the most out of this, as standard briquettes will create too much ash and wont get hot enough.
John Lewis also have a sale on these grills at the moment, but they do have more options available.
