The Primo Grills Round Kamado is a ceramic kamado charcoal grill made in Poplar Bluff, Missouri, and this version is the grill head on its own, ready to drop into an outdoor kitchen island or pair with a Primo cart, cypress table or cradle sold separately. It offers 280 square inches of primary grilling space, and it holds steady heat from 151°F to 850°F+, so one cooker covers low-and-slow smoking, roasting, baking and high-heat searing.
Classic Round Kamado Cooking
The round firebox spreads heat evenly from the center outward, which makes this size easy to learn on. It is a natural fit for pizza, whole chickens and racks of ribs, and a heat deflector turns it into a steady indirect smoker.
Ceramic Built for Heat Control
The thick ceramic shell holds heat and moisture, so meat stays juicy and the grill uses less lump charcoal than a thin metal cooker. Airflow is set with a cast top vent and a stainless steel lower draft door, and an analog dome thermometer shows the temperature at a glance. The reversible stainless steel cooking grates flip for different cooking heights.
Built-In Installation
For an island installation the grill rests on a supporting shelf inside a countertop cut-out, so the dome sits just above the counter. Primo's template for this size calls for a 22 1/2" diameter circle (standard template) opening with the shelf 14" (17" with the hinge-notch template) below the countertop surface. Leave 10" open behind the grill so the lid can swing fully, and keep at least 2" of air space around the ceramic. Download the cut-out template below and check it against the grill on site before cutting any stone or concrete.
