A kamado is a ceramic barbecue inspired by traditional Japanese ovens. It functions as a grill, oven and smoker, thanks to its egg shape and ability to retain and distribute heat evenly. Choosing a kamado means opting for versatile, precise and economical charcoal cooking, with incomparable flavours. The ceramic kamado is a very popular barbecue model. Whether for direct or indirect cooking, hot or cold smoking, pizzas, breads or even the cooking of very large pieces, the kamado embodies the ultimate versatility.

The kamado works thanks to its egg shape and thick, heat-retaining ceramic. Air circulates via an adjustable ventilation system (top and bottom), allowing for precise temperature control. This makes it possible to cook slowly at low temperatures or to cook at very high temperatures for searing meats or making pizzas.

2 to 4 people: Little Kokko model.

6+ people or large tables: Kokko XL models.
Choose according to the number of regular guests and your culinary ambitions (smoking, large cuts of meat, etc.).

A kamado allows:

• Grilling: Sear meats, brochettes or vegetables.
• Slow cooking: For ribs, lamb shoulder or pulled pork.
• Smoking: Add a smoky touch to your meat or fish dishes.
• Pizzas and breads: Even cooking thanks to high heat concentration.
• Simmered dishes: Beef bourguignon, paëlla, tajines.

To get started with a Kokko kamado, here are the essential accessories:

Pizza stone: Indispensable for homemade pizzas with a golden crust.

Heat deflector: For indirect cooking such as smoking and roasting.

Tongs and spatula: To handle food without damaging it.

Use natural charcoal, preferably large pieces. This type of charcoal burns slower, produces less ash and does not alter the flavour of food.
