Introducing a tough kamado grill designed to provide a lifetime of performance and memories. Made from one inch thick solid cast aluminum, the Blaze Kamado offers superior durability and outstanding temperature control. The non-porous grill body allows you to use any type of charcoal or wood, as well as any material for lighting the charcoal without worry of damaging or absorbing into the grill body. The heavy-duty 12mm hexagon, 304 stainless steel cooking grate retains heat and helps you achieve an excellent sear. The 20-inch diameter cooking grate is hinged on both sides so you can easily add wood or charcoal without completely removing the cooking surface. A mid-level 18-inch cooking grate is also included which allows you to cook closer to the fire, add a drip pan or a heat deflector for indirect cooking. The lid hinge is made from 304 grade stainless steel and features a convenient lift assist for easy opening and closing. The Blaze Kamado grill also boasts an innovative lid seal that is superior to ceramic kamado-style grills. Instead of using a felt gasket, the cast aluminum Blaze Kamado utilizes a tongue and groove seal. This design eliminates the need to replace a damaged gasket and also provides an exceptional seal that prevents heat from escaping. The top exhaust vent is made from molded cast aluminum for precise heat control without the risk slipping out of position. The bottom of the firebox holds a removable stainless steel ash pan with handles for easy cleanup. A large temperature gauge with markings for smoking, roasting and searing temperatures is mounted in the lid, allowing you to easily monitor cooking temperatures. The grill also includes cast aluminum feet so you can safely stabilize it in your outdoor kitchen island.

Yeah, when I get a Kamado this will be it. There is a cast iron one on the market that seems quite nice. However, it weighs about 300 lbs more than this cast aluminum one weighs. They are about the same size. This aluminum may tarnish but it won’t rust.
Either way I think cast metal or steel is a better choice than fragile ceramic IMHO.
I love it and I'm about to order one but Im hesitating just because I can't believe that aluminum retains heat more than ceramic, can you confirm this? Also can you raise this model to 500f for pizza?
Super nola nesecito meurge prameñana estarde
This is an advertisement, not a review.
I would love to buy one of these but they’re so pricey do you know when they’ll be on sale?
What is the diameter of the middle grate, please?
That thing is a work of art
Makes total sense… looks like an urn…. and urns hold ash.
I have the Pit Boss 24". It does the job well, but not well built like the Blaze. Wish I have enough money to buy this one.
with Aluminum having a low melting point, how do you do hot cooks like pizza or high heat sears on steaks? While this may hold up better in a fall test, I don't see how this can have long term sustainability with concerns of warping or melting when doing high heat cooks.
I'm curious as to why you stopped carrying this Blaze kamado. It's not showing up in you website anymore….
Beautiful craftsmanship, although i have to ask, wtf were they thinking with that cart.
Outside of being brittle, doesn't ceramic have better properties for cooking?
Why use a material that is an excellent conductor? Even Akorns are dual layered steel with insulation.
What a machine!
Review of slow n sear kamado?
Now make it in stainless steel and a bit bigger
What would you guys recommend between the broil king keg or the blaze kamado?
Looks great but at this price point – No slide out ash pan??? Come’on man.
If I had the money this would be mine
Only one problem is too small 🙁
How much now ?
Where is it made ?
I've owned my Blaze Komado for over a year now and I LOVE it! No problems and no quality issues with this EXCELLENT product!
I cannot think of anything that is a negative factor in this smoker/grill, it's GREAT!
