Today’s kamado-style grills, based on a centuries-old design, are well known for their thick, insulated walls and excellent heat retention. Typically, coals are placed in the lower portion of the cooker and food is placed on an upper cooking grate creating a one-zone cooking environment (see diagrams below). Temperature is uniform throughout the grill’s cooking surface whether cooking low ‘n slow or at temperatures 700°+ F for searing.
The Slow ‘N Sear Deluxe Kamado has all of the sought-after characteristics of a high quality kamado cooker and then delivers MORE. Utilizing the patented Slow ‘N Sear® inside the cooking chamber, this kamado improves one-zone cooking and enables a true two-zone cooking environment (see diagram below) creating the most versatile kamado on the market.
With the Slow ‘N Sear, coals are held higher in the grill and separated from the rest of the chamber by a vertical wall of water. This design achieves many firsts in kamado cooking:
-
Dedicated, simultaneous two-zone cooking with the creation of direct and indirect zones
-
True searing capability with direct heat from burning coals (not heat stored up in a cooking grate)
-
Easy access to coals at cooking grate level when needing to refuel
-
Improved smoke flavor through the generation of more smoke and cleaner smoke using TurboSlow™ technology
