Kinka Okunoto Konro Grill - 54cm (Medium)
Kinka Okunoto Konro Grill - 54cm (Medium)
The Kinka Okunoto Konro is the benchmark Japanese charcoal grill in our range — the artisanal diatomite grill trusted by professional chefs and restaurants. Each grill is hand-cut from a single block of natural diatomite quarried in the Okunoto region of Japan's Noto Peninsula.
The porous diatomite provides outstanding heat insulation, letting binchotan charcoal burn hotter for longer and cooking with a strong radiant heat that seals in juices. Sized for groups of 4–8 people, its large grilling surface makes it the choice of restaurants. If you're weighing up sizes, see our 31cm vs 54cm sizing guide.

Important Notes, Use & Care
For outdoor use only. This is a charcoal grill and must only be used in a well-ventilated area.
Handle with Care: The grill body becomes extremely hot during use. Always place it on a heat-proof surface like the optional wooden base. Do not use water to clean the diatomite interior. Allow to cool completely and brush out any ash.
