Japanese Premier Konro Grills / Hibachi Grill - Medium 54cm (4-8 People) with Optional Wood Board

Okunoto konro grills, commonly referred to as hibachi grills and often showcased on Australian cooking shows, are crafted using high-quality diatom mud from Japan's Okunoto peninsula.

This material, known for its excellent insulation properties, allows the grill to perform better than many other grills that use subpar ceramics.

Key benefits of the Okunoto konro grills include:

  • Consistent heat distribution for even cooking
  • Excellent heat retention extending the duration of grilling sessions
  • Ability to achieve core temperatures of up to 1200 degrees
  • Optional wooden base available

For optimal results with this grill, it's recommended to use approximately 2kg of binchotan Japanese white charcoal per barbeque session.

Due to the limited production of Okunoto konro grills, availability can fluctuate. If the item is out of stock, we encourage you to contact us to join our waiting list.

When compared to many brands, Okunoto grills stand out in quality and performance. For longevity, store your grill in a dry, indoor setting.

Surely charcoal is just charcoal? How wrong I was. Spend a few extra $ with the extra burn time you will save a few $.
