Char-Griller AKORN Kamado Charcoal Grill, Slate

Super. I have one for almost 10 years work perfect. Save a lot charcoal and cook perfect. Really de BEST!!!

Review Kamado Grill. Absolutely perfect for grilling for doing woodfired pizzas. It’s an amazing well put together grill..

I absolutely love it. Be sure to order the smoking stone and charcoal basket.

Awesome grill. This is my second Acorn grill. The first one I literally wore it out, it was about ten years old. I own 2 pellet grills as well but my most often picked to cook on is the Acorn grill. I love my pellet grills for a long cook like pulled pork or brisket. Happy the grill came back in stock.

No skinny wire BBQ.. nice cast grates. I love the thick cast grates .. good size BBQ and cool to look at

Awesome results regardless of talent. This grill has made smoking meat very easy. The days of me obsessing over a side box are over! It is so efficient that charcoal has to be cleaned out every second or third cook. Keeping it clean is important. I can’t believe I got it for less than $400. The smoking stone is worth the money. This is the grill/smoker for those of us that are too lazy to obsess about it but still want great results. If it lasts five years, it will have been worth every penny.

Red Akorn. I bought this some 10 years ago, still use it, a little rusty but works great, this baby I got up to 700 degrees, accidentally. Bought a stone for it and still use it, my second char-griller. It is the Red one, and I do not know if I picked the right one to review. Steaks, burgers, slow grill all work.

Akorn vs BGE. I was gifted a schmedium BGE several years ago and became proficient at cooking on it. We enjoy the taste of the food it cooks so much that we decided to get a similar cooker for our lake house. I compared multiple Kamado style cookers and chose the Akorn primarily because of the size and price. The metal construction is very efficient and maintains its temperature while getting up to temperature faster than its ceramic counterparts. I cooked chicken quarters for the first time tonight and have to say they were at least equivalent, if not better than what I’ve cooked on my BGE. I highly recommend the Akorn!

Set it and forget is number #1. I bought my Auto Kamado in December 2025. I use it 4-5 times a week. I have had other "automated" systems, the auto kamado is by far the best. It keeps in perfect , set it to 400° it reaches that temp in minutes and holds it all day! Best auto system, period!

4 Years - Still Works - Issues R 100% My Fault! Let me say, PLEASE Come out with a Version 2.0!!! This is the future of grilling! I have pictures to prove it. After 1-2-3-4 Years of use, cooking, grilling, roasting, smoking, etc. YES I did indeed use all these features, and they all work. The grill has seen better days, but it is 100% my fault and if anything a testament to the longevity of the product. In short, my Auto-Kamado (Tee Em!! as Ricky Bobby would add) has sat outside, too often uncovered (including at least 1 entire winter), in Wisconsin and I am still today, remotely monitoring the heat-up of the grill for some cod, chicken, and sirloin as I type. I've had a porterhouse, a couple dozen brats(wursts), several packages of natural casing weiners, .... all this season already. I love that I can literally use this thing year round, so long as I get off my butt to keep the back grill area clear of snow. It's nearly a "set it and forget it" kind of machine, at least compared to non-automatic models. I have MANY version 2.0 ideas and will be sharing with the char-griller crew. As is, I really cannot complain. Had I brought it in, or at least covered it up after cooling after each use, even this wouldn't be an issue. That issue, is the included thermometers stopped activating the temperature setting on the grill as I believe the 1/4" female sockets on the base by the control screen and buttons, which require you to insert a little, still attached via the rubber loop, plug

Great. Grill is running great. Great charcoal fuel saver.

Not recommended. The camper on it was broke from the factory. Made cheap

Love our AKORN…but. Love my AKORN cooker (actually my second)! We use it all the time for low-and-slow smoking to ripping hot searing. But twice now, the architecture supporting the ash pan has burned out requiring either a new ash pan kit…or a whole new cooker. Seems like a design flaw.

Had the original, this is a game changer! I had the original for years. I loved it, and still do, but my wife got me the Auto as a gift. There’s a bit of a learning curve but it isn’t bad. The build is what I have come to expect from Char-Griller; exceptional! The Auto-Kamado screams quality. There’s nothing “cheap” about it, except for the price! The build is rock solid and it is definitely built to last! Looks like this one is a keeper that I will have and enjoy for years to come!

My 2nd Auto Kamado, but certainly not the last. This is my 2nd Auto Kamado. I’m still using the first, but it’s beginning to wear out from age and use. I received an email from Akorn about a one day flash sale for the Auto, so I jumped on it. Needless to say, I feel that this grill is fantastic, and suits my cooking style very well. Can’t see myself using anything other grill.

Best Hot & Fast On The Market. I've won over $10K cooking chicken at competitions with my AKORN over 6 years. Granted I've had to replace some parts from used ones purchased on Market Place, but it is hands down a best whenit comes to cooking hot and fast!

I’ve had my Akorn since 2020 and it’s held up and performed exactly as advertised!!

Akorn auto Kamado is a charcoal grilling breeze! I’ve had this grill now for almost two years and it cooks like a champ! The functions are easy to control and after setting the temperature it automatically fans to temp and holds within 1 or 2 degrees. Flavors are awesome and the food is always moist and delicious. You won’t regret this purchase!

Grill/Smoking through the years. In bought this probably about 7 years ago. we break it out every time we smoke grill wings. so basically every sunday during the Seahawks season . It has a ton of wear on it but it’s still going strong surviving the Florida heat and rain

My 2nd One of these. This is my second one of these grills, eve first nested 10 years and I could’ve gotten another year or two out of it I love this grill, and for the price you really can’t beat it

Great grill. This is the 2nd one I have owned. It's an amazing grill. Get the smoking stone with it.

Great temperature control. I bought my Kamado from my wife’s nephew about 6 months ago and was able to learn to control the temperature in a couple of uses. Now I am able to confidently smoke brisket. I love the Kamado. But, my pulled chicken is fantastic.

The Akorn Rocks! Best Burgers & Steaks Ever! I've had an Akorn for 10 years now. Pretty easy to get the hang of using it... then you have the best burgers and steaks you've ever tasted!

Green Egg Overcomer. I purchased my Kamado grill some 6 plus years back because the "Egg" was just too dog gone expensive. The Akorñ is well built, the grates sturdy, and overall seemed to me to be as good as the "Egg" without the high pricetag. I have smoked chickens, tenderloins, 100 - 1" to 1 1/2" boneless pork chops for a Christmas supper for my Sunday School Class, and grilled numerous burgers and hotdogs. It has exceeded all of my expectations and then some. I have replaced the ashpan and added a premium cover. Am glad I chose to purchase this grill and would recommend it to anyone.

The best grill and birthday present ever! I got this grill 11 years ago for my 40th birthday. I had used it ever since then and I love it. It made me retire my gas grill. It has been one of the best and well built products I have ever owned. I would highly recommend this grill to anyone and everyone.

Awesome Akorn Kamado Grill. This grill, a Father's Day gift from my wife several years ago, has completely transformed my outdoor cooking. I've gone from someone who just grilled burgers to the person friends and family rely on for perfectly smoked ribs and exquisitely seared steaks. The Akorn's triple-walled insulation is no joke; it holds temperature for hours with surprising fuel efficiency, whether I'm doing a long, low-and-slow smoke or cranking it up for high-heat grilling. The cast iron grates give an incredible sear, and the smoky flavor it imparts is something you just can't get from a gas grill. While there was a bit of a learning curve to master the dampers, the results are more than worth it. It’s a versatile and reliable workhorse that has a permanent spot in my backyard.

My go too grill. This is the second Acorn charcoal grill I’ve owned. I love this grill and use it weekly. One thing I like is you can shut it down and have charcoal left for your next grill. You cannot beat this grill for the money. Well built and reliable. I traded in a Kamoto for this Char griller acorn grill.

Best grill. Does allow me to make pizza, a great benefit, plus very good for chicken wings too, plus normal grilling favorites! I've had this grill for approximately 5yrs.

AMAZING GRILL/SMOKER. This is the best grill I have ever owned. I have been grilling and smoking on this type for 10 years now. I will never swap brands.

Great for grilling and smoking. Have had mine for nearly 10 years. Use it multiple time a week. Use for smoking and grilling. Best all around grill I’ve ever owned. Hand down the best. When/if this one wears out, I’ll buy another.

Don't balme the grill! I've had my AKORN for almost ten years now. Used it for about 5 years and then set it aside for a newer shinier grill. Two years ago I pulled the cover off, and fired it up again. I've learned so much since the first round of use that I now realize now how poorly I managed the fire the first time around. I loved it for round 1 but it's even better now! I have no trouble maintaining temp with minimal effort and no refills for 8 hour cooks. It's a great tool, but like anything, give yourself time to learn it. You won't regret it. Well worth the price!

An affordable product. A friend of mine bought this Akorn auto kamado and the steaks came delicious and very soft

Pure Love. This grill is the ticket to fantastic barbeques! There is no messing food up! It is like having a perfect kitchen outside!

fantastic grill. I use this alot - ease of use and control of temperature is outstanding. I have owned many different grills and this is by far the best

Best Choice Lump Charcoal Grill/Smoker EVER!!!!!!! I don't know how long I've had this doll but it's worth every penny I spent on it!

Akorn. Best charcoal grill I have owned, haven’t used my gas grill or electric smoker since I purchased this. Great at grilling hot or smoking. Bottom line is I would purchase the same grill if it was stolen.o

My second chargriller. I bought my first Kamado grill about 7 years ago at a close-out sale at Tractor Supply. I didn't read the user instructions (of course) and used way too much wood the first few times I used it. After I was able to dial in how to use the grill, what a great unit. I bought the exact same grill last month, put it together, (while reading the instructions). Wanting to make sure it lasts, I wiped the inside of the grill with vegetable oil and started a small fire inside the grill, kind of like curing a cast iron skillet. I smoked a salmon fillet last night at 225 degrees F. Turned out great.

Great Smoker for the Price! I bought an Akorn last summer and it has been a great smoker! I had a little bit of a learning curve, but after a couple times, it has been easy to smoke meat on it and have great results. I'm sure Kamado Joe's and Big Green Eggs are fantastic, but for the money, you can't beat an Akorn Kamado smoker.

HOLDS TEMPS WELL. THE BEST GIFT MY WIFE EVER GAVE ME, GREAT FOR HIGH HEAT GRILLING AND LOW HEAT SMOKING

AKORN !! THE VERY BEST!! I,ve had my AKORN for about4 years now and I got to tell you it’s by far the best grill I’ve used for the past 63 years! We are big family of barbecue fanatics.Any they can’t wait until I say ( COME ON OVER ,LETS GRILL) Not just the grilling and the smoking and the recipes you send but the way it slow cooks, sears everything. I grill octopus on the stone shrimp crabcakes to perfection. steaks and ribs and chicken to die for on a slow burn. But the smoker has to be the best! Brisket, pork smoked and bacon smoked in the am! Love my AKORN !! Definitely the best beats any gas grill I ever had

I will not grill with anything else! I’ve had my Akorn Kamado for nearly fifteen years. It is durable, well constructed and is a dream to cook on. The heat is always consistent, the hundreds of meals I have cooked on it brings smiles to all who have partaken. The only charcoal grill for me!

I love my AKORN Grill! I have had this grill for about five years now. It is my go to grill for all my barbequing and outdoor cooking. It is easy to clean, very durable, and its design makes cooking even and simple to manage. I have yet to buy a pizza stone, but I plan to this year to add this option to my cooking repetoire. I love this grill and recommend it highly.

Fantastic Grill well worth the wait. I can see why this grill was always SOLD OUT every time that I tried to order it. I have an Akorn Kamado that I bought 5 to 6 years ago that I use at my summer camp in upstate New York. I have always thought this was the ultimate BBQ Grill until we bought a new house in SC, and I bought the Akorn Auto-Komado Grill to use when we are here. WOW OH WOW what an amazing grill. The automatic features to this grill are easy to use and help to keep the temperature I want to grill at consistent which helps to make me an even better BBQ Chef.

Great unit for the price. Bought to try and liked it. Great for grilling for a crowd.

Kamado Graphite. I bought one several years ago and i love it, holds temps great, couldn't ask for a bettet grill.

Zero to hero. I received my Akorn for Father’s Day three years ago. I’ve owned a few grills over the years, and if I’m being honest, most of my early “BBQ” was just enthusiastic guessing. Then I got the Char-Griller Akorn, and suddenly I went from “guy who brought chips” to “guy everyone asks to cook.” I’m not saying this grill changed my life… but my swordfish has a fan club now. The biggest difference is charcoal flavor done right. The Akorn runs on lump charcoal, and it gives food that real-deal, wood-fire taste — not overpowering, just that subtle smoky depth that makes people stop mid-bite and go, “Wait… what did you do to this?” When I grill swordfish, it picks up this perfect kiss of smoke while still tasting clean and fresh. It’s the kind of flavor you expect from a coastal restaurant, not someone standing in sneakers next to a patio chair. What really surprised me is the heat retention. This thing holds temperature like it has a personal grudge against fluctuation. Once it’s set, it just cruises. That steady heat lets me get a beautiful crust on the outside of the swordfish while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Before the Akorn, my seafood results ranged from “not bad” to “why is this dry?” Now it’s consistently spot-on. The temperature control is also way easier than it looks. The dampers let you dial in the airflow so you can go low and slow or screaming hot. For swordfish, I crank it up and get that steakhouse-style sear that locks everything in. Hea

Interesting setup. Just received the auto kamado. Put it together and seasoned it. I cooked a couple of New York strips on it and they were excellent! I also bought the cooking stone but have yet to use it. Hoping to smoke a pork butt soon. I really like the looks of this smoker/grill. I'm really excited to do some serious smoking on it.

Best grill smoker best price ever! my kids and wife bought my grill on Father’s Day this was the best made smoker grill that I’ve ever owned it lasted five years every time I cooked on it or smoked on it every meat was juicy didn’t matter what you cook chicken burgers, fish everything came out delicious I just forgot to empty out the ashes at the bottom of the grill and it’s slowly rusted out the bottom don’t make the same mistake. I did empty it out every time. I still wish I had it back.

Absolutely Love My Akorn! I’ve had my Akorn about 3 yrs now and, out of all my grills, it’s my go to grill for all things. It’s a great, reliable cooker and clean up is a breeze. It’s one of those things that I would have to immediately replace if anything were to ever happen to it. If you’re looking for an awesome Kamado grill at a reasonable price, this is it!

Versatile cooker!!! This bad boy is amazing. Anything from quick burgers, brats and dogs for a family gathering. Fire it up hot for a steak. Throw the deflector in there to control the heat and make yourself an awesome pizza. Now, let's go low and slow...the Akorn holds a low heat effortlessly. Pulled pork, chuck roasts, turkey breasts...all mouthwatering.

The Detailed Pro. After using several different setups over the years, the Kamado Charcoal Grill stands out for its temperature control and durability. I’m particularly impressed with how evenly it distributes heat—no more 'cold spots' in the middle of a cook! It’s a game-changer for anyone from beginners to seasoned pitmasters. Winning the BBQ grill would be the ultimate addition to my outdoor kitchen. Highly recommend!"

Great. Never been a big fan of a charcoal grill but man did this thing ever change my mind. Rather use this than my Gas gri

The BEST GRILL ever!! I purchased this for my fiancé for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. We have had chicken, burgers, and sausage. The food comes out so well! I highly recommend this grill to anyone considering buying it. The price is great and it is my favorite purchase of the entire year! My entire family LOVES it and begs for him to use it everyday!

Great for Beginners. I am so happy with this purchase. Great grill for smoker and grilling beginners as it’s very user friendly and easy to use. Highly recommended for all sorts grilling

Great Smoker-Grill. This is the best Smoker/Grill to own. Easiest way to clean ash and insert. Great combo option of Smoker or Grill. Dampener system works great for controlling and maintaining temperatures. So easy to operate and maintain plus the size makes it easy to store anywhere. Best Smoker / Grill for the Money anywhere I have shopped.

Doesn’t last long. I bought the Auto kamado a couple years ago, parts don’t last very long, not good quality.

I’ll give it a five star because I have owned three char griller but I’ve never bought a digital one. Can’t wait to unwrap my char griller digital.

Great product. Bought this for my husband for an anniversary present, he loves it.

Nice grab -. Awesome.... did exactly what I wanted, couldn't justify a green egg and this gave the same results ... if it rusts, just buy the part needed and replace cheaper then worrying about a life time of cracks-

Works Great About 30% of the Time! Got this as a replacement to the regular (all-manual) Akorn (which had lasted me, IDK, 6-8 years living covered but outside before it was rusted out enough to chunk it) . . . so I was really happy with the idea of a digitally controlled version as a replacement. Within a few weeks of use, I was getting an ErF error message (error fan, for those that don't have one). Contacted customer support, they sent out a new fan. Put that in, same issue. It works properly only ABOUT 30% of the time! Otherwise, I have to resort to getting the coals going (I use a heater element type starting method), and just have to unlatch the ash pan on both sides to get some airflow, and then just have the electronics on so I can see the actual temp. (which means, that I'm just using it like the all-manual one, but with a temp read-out). Temp probe also went bad around Feb of this year (2025). And the replacement on Amazon was way cheaper (and works great). But at least it was an easy fix, that actually works. But the ErF issue . . . deal-breaker for me. I'm not willing to throw down $2k for a Konnected Joe, but I bet they have their issues worked out. The brain on this thing is a SIMPLE bit of electronics, surely it can't be that hard to get it right. Long story short. It shouldn't be this way. And they aren't much help.

Easy to use. Charcoal akorn is so easy to use!, it is like having an oven on your deck, set the temp amd let it go.

Kamado. My first one lasted about 6 years, gave it to a neighbor, and he has been cooking on it for about 2 years, no issues. Still going!!! I bought my second one when I gave my 1st. Away, going on 4 years now. Best cooking grill ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Akorn Grill. We bought one a few years back and loved it, but it seemed to be too much once the kids left the house.

Regular size and JR. I had owned both a regular size with smoking stone and a junior in the past. Both worked great and produced good food. Due to a lack of regular ash pan emptying both rusted out so take care to empty those out

Versatile and Reliable. My father loves his AKORN and purchased one for me when I moved to my new house. I've grilled all the common proteins with great success. I've also made chili by cooking meatloaf above a cast iron Dutch oven, dripping the loaf juice straight into the chili pot. The heat plate is great for smoking in the AKORN

This is the best grill I’ve ever had. I’ve had the Auto Kamado for about 30 months. I use it 4 or 5 days a week. It’s as easy as cooking in an oven. Put charcoal in, light with a torch, use the torch to heat the vent at the top so that it melts the grease that’s collected there allowing it to open. Set the temp you want and open the vent by the fan. It will tell you how far to open the top vent. The more you use it the less you will rely on that information. I’ve replaced the thermometer twice and the fan once. It’s simply a 60mm 3 wire fan. You don’t have to make it complicated. Match the wire colors. The thermometer wire wears out because it flexes every time you open the lid. They’re cheap. Buy a couple for the future. I cannot stress how much I love this grill.

Best charcoal grill EVER. I have had this grill since 2020 and it is by far the best investment I have ever made as far as outdoor life. It started me down the charoal lifestyle and that is a never ending hole you throw money into but man is it fun! This grill cooks everything from burgers to pizza and everything in between. I even cooked a full turkey! It's just a pleasure to cook on. So much fun! Buy one...it will be the best charcoal grill you invest in.

Works great. I have had my Acorn for a couple of years now and it works great. I use it for grilling, smoking, and making pizza. It is easy to use and clean.

Lots To Love. I had been using gas grills for many years and wanted to get a charcoal grill again for the added smoked taste and less flair ups. The Akorn Kamado grill fit the bill perfectly. I liked it so much after the first dozen uses that I got rid of my old gas grill. While I had also been looking at pellet grills, I kept seeing the horror stories about jammed feeders and having to do a lot of maintenance to keep them going. The AKORN grill only requires that I dump the ashes when I get ready to use it again or I can dump them into the metal ash can that I picked up right away after it cools down. One thing that seems to be the best thing about this grill is the ceramic warming plate under the grid. I picked this up at the same time that I bought the grill and have used it almost exclusively for baking pizza, roasts and even when I am a bit too lazy to worry about flare ups when I am grilling steaks and chops. Will definitely be shopping for another one of these grills when this one finally weathers out and needs replacing.

Ultimate smoke flavor. I’ve owned this grill for years and grill and smoke almost anything.

great product. Love the ease of use. I also add a foil wrapped pizza pan for drippings.

Loved it for years. I have owned this grill for years and love its versatility - grilling, searing, smoking.

Best grill I’ve ever used. I love grilling on my Akron. Took some getting used to but it has become my go to grill for pretty much everything!

Professional results!! Have had one year and my baby back ribs and brisket re to die for. Friends say best ribs they ever had. Easy to maintain temperature and smoke. Love it!!

Super Handy for Weekend Smoker. I use mine as much as I can. Very user friendly… holds temp and smoke very well. Set the timer and meat probe and enjoy your day. The only complaint I have, is the top damper, must be cleaned…it greases over and gets stuck tight.. a quick spritz of citrus and a couple of turns does the trick.. have fun!

Kamado grill is the best. Without question the best charcoal grill smoker I’ve ever owned.

Great grill, smoker, and charcoal convection bake. I've had this for 7-8 years and love it! Initially, the temperature control was a bit challenging, but I did learn. Still use it weekly. Smoke wings, ribs, meatloaf, lamb. High temp halibut bake is a favorite.

Akorn Kamado is awesome. Keeps heat for a really long time. Doesn't cost $1000 like some of the other ones and works great!

Top Notch!! I was given this grill for Father's day and I was very apprehensive about trying it because I thought it wasn't going to live up to my expectations. But I was totally wrong this grill is an absolute game changer and my new go to for my outdoor grilling ventures. It's very versatile and user friendly to the point that anyone came use it. I am very impressed to say the least.

Grill. One of the best grills I’ve ever used. Have one I’m using with another as backup

Great grill for a gift. I bought this grill for my son for Christmas. He loves it and uses it often. Great grill and makes a great Christmas gift.

Best bang for the buck. Ive had this for many years. Hands down the best purchase, does everything a ceramic does with the security that if it does tip over, ur investment isn't down the drain, highly recomend

Excellent Grill/Smoker. I like using the Akron so much that I have a second one at my beach house. I can control the cooking temp easily.

Great concept and makes a fantastic steak! I have had this grill a little over a year and it has become my primary grill. I would give it 5 stars but just over the warranty period, the controller went out and of course it was not under warranty so it cost me about $100.

Love this grill/smoker. I love the Akron! I think it makes all other Kamari obsolete! It well made, and performs very well. Whether you are smoking low and slow or cranking it up for the perfect seared steak, it is perfect! I love that it doesn’t weigh Aton and I am able to move it by myself.

Great. Really happy with grill. Safe and easy to use. Great control of the temperature

Love My Auto Kamado! I've had my Auto Kamado two years now and it is my favorite grill and smoker. It's so easy! It make the best chicken, whether is wings, legs, thighs, leg quarters, or whole beer can or spatchcock! It's flawless!! It also rocks out pulled pork, ribs, and even brisket. It always rocks out great bbq, grilled or smoked food!! I love this thing and it's so easy to use!

Great value for the money. I wanted a Kamodo style grill for a long time, but just didn't want to spend $1000. The Akorn Kamodo works great and saved me $$$. I can do everything I want on it, smoke, grill, bake, sear, it does it all.

Excellent smoker. I have had one of these for years now, still love it.

Does it all! Been using mine for several years with great success both smoking & grilling. Takes a while to get used to using it but certainly does the job well. Able to smoke pork butt type roast on one load of charcoal, used chunk type. very happy with purchase.

Cooks great food everytime. I have had my ACORN for over 2 years and have not run into any issues with parts or performance. It is my go to for overall food flavor and consistency

The most amazing grill I’ve ever had. I have 2 of these and 1 Akorn Jr. because I do a lot of outdoor cooking. Once you get past the learning curve of temperature control,the sky is the limit.

Great grill. I really liked the Akorn, it is well built and really holds it's temperature for a long time. I used a pizza pan under the grid to catch drippings. It really helped on clean up.Get a brush, keep it clean. You don't need much wood to add flavor. This grill really does a great job infusing smoke into the meat. Take your time, don't start out with expensive meat. Use the top and bottom vents to see where your sweet spot is. Start out with wings or thighs. They are more forgiving if you over cook at first. But it you hang with it, you will have a great grill for years to come.

WOW. I had been looking into this grill for three or four years but had been holding off. A friend of mine has one and swears by it so I bought one. This grill has lived up to everything he told me from low charcoal consumption to not having to watch over it all day. This is as close to a electric smoker or gas grill you can get. Set it and forget it. I can hold 230 all day long or open up the dampers to get 600 degrees of steak searing magic.

Cooks anything. I am on my second acorn and I legitly cook everything from biscuits. And gravy, starting with the sausage homemade gravy and bake my biscuits at the end. Also Smoke briskets, try tips sear any steak to perfection. Pizza,, cinnamon rolls in a cast iron pan you just cannot go wrong

Great Durable Smoker. I bought this smoker over 5 years ago and am not dissatisfied. It can sear fantastically or smoke low and slow if desired. Truly a versatile smoker. I highly recommend for the price.

Beautiful upgrade. Set a temp amd have confidence it will stay, beware, i generally have to close the damper a little more then it says you need to.

Akorn Kamado. I have owned an Akorn Kamado for several years and use it quite often. It still looks as good as the day I purchased it. If it ever has to be replaced it will be the same purchase

akorn Kamado. My first one lasted about 10 year and was in the elements most of the time. Just purchased my second one and seasoned the grate and had some great food with family. Great cost for a egg like grill, but no sticker shock.

Easy to use. Great construction. Fantastic results. Have stopped using it since I got it. No matter what I cook, I get the same awesome results.
