About This Product

The Akorn Kamado Kooker can maintain consistent temperatures from 200°F to 700°F. That lets you cook a variety of foods such as steaks, fish, chicken, ribs, brisket, pizza, bread and even cookies. The innovative design uses double walled steel with insulation. In order to generate heat, air must be flowing through the grill and around the coals. Air flow causes food to dry out. With the Akorn insulated design, it retains heat better, requiring less heat and less air flow. Therefore, insulated heat, juicier meat.

Highlights

  • Insulated design means more heat using less charcoal and less airflow resulting in juicy meat
  • Akorn is the only kamado style grill with an easy dump ash pan allowing ash to be removed easily from the grill without a mess
  • Tubular steel cart construction
  • 26 in. x 26 in. prep/serving table
  • Dual adjustable dampers allow for precise air adjustment required for dialing in and maintaining specific temperatures
  • Cast iron cooking grates enhance flavors and heat evenly; will hold up to 23 burgers
  • Assembly required

            Q:Can this be set up with the table to the left? All the pictures show it to the right but didnt know if it could just be swapped.

            Answer This Question

            A:  The table is designed to be set up as shown. Not sure if the grill could be installed facing the other way, which is the only way to have the table on the other side. Remember that it had to be designed to hold the weight of the unit at that end, so changing it around don’t think it would be safe. Good luck!

            by|Mar 5, 2021

            A:  Pretty sure you can rotate the grill 180 degrees and assemble, that way the table would be at your desired location

            by|Mar 5, 2021

              A:  The mounting holes for attaching the smoker assemble the frame appear to be the same on both sides. So, you should be able to reverse the so0ker so that is on the right.

              by|Mar 2, 2021

              A:  Thank you for your question. The table can't be switched over due to how the hinge is attached. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to us via email (service@chargriller.com), phone (912-638-4724) or chat at www.chargriller.com.

                  Rusted out- inoperable
                  The char Grill or last for 1 to 2 years and then it starts to rust. If you keep it outside with a cover this thing will rust out and will be in operable in about four years.

                    Can NOT take the heat
                    This unit bent within 2 months after i bought it. now it does not lock properly, defeating the whole purpose of this grill. i am taking it back. don't waste you money and invest in something better. oh and warranty doesn't cover. they will only say that you dropped it or hit it with something, even though i sent them pictures proofing otherwise.

                      LOVE my Kamado but outer grate broke on first use
                      This grill (that I received as a birthday gift) is excellent. It has fabulous temperature control and is super easy to clean. I just had one issue during the first use. I was attempting to remove the outer grate w the grate tool to add a few more lumps of charcoal, and the grate slipped and a section of it broke off on the patio. I wasnt expecting the grate to be so delicate because the rest of the grill is extremely well-built and looks very durable. I ordered a new grate and it is being delivered today so my grill season is not seriously interrupted but the easy breakage might be something to mention in the manual next time. Thanks Chargriller for stepping up my grill game!

                        Paint scorched
                        Bought the grill on 12-10-20 and assembled the grill on 12-18-20. I greased the grill grate and lit the fire to season. Temperature gauge reached 500 deg. and I shut the vents and noticed the paint had scorched and turned brown around the top vent. This grill is supposed to be able to cook at 650-700 deg. I will be calling Char-Griller customer service.

                          This grill exceeded expectation! Set up and assembly was a breeze. The first cook and seasoning of the grill went much better than expected. Controlling temperature was a breeze as I had extensively researched how to reach/maintain temperatures. Coming from smoking on a side box smoker for years, this was simple to adjust to. Cleaning is also incredibly easy compared to the more expensive kamado grills! I've been able to blast this grill up to max temp for serious sears on big steaks and held low temps to smoke. Honestly this is an incredible investment! Having the side table is also a major bonus, its HUGE! This picture doesn't really set to scale how large it is. Lastly, assemble this in the location it will be housed/used....my door frame of my living room to backyard was not wide enough with the wheels on ;) 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a charcoal grill/kamodo cooker that isn't going to hurt your wallet.

                          I really like this grill. The flavors induced by using lump charcoal are fantastic. So far I have smoked a chicken on it but will soon try a pork butt and then a brisket. Highly recommend.

                          Amazing value
                          The bang for the buck is off the charts on this model. I'm obsessed with researching anything I buy that has any competition at all so I have been digging in to all kamado grills out there to compare. I figured that I might as well go with the entry level price point after reading about the Akorn for hours. Once I picked up my grill and assembled it, every complaint that I was warned about in reviews was not an issue. No bent parts, no missing parts, no chipped paint, and was really easy to assemble. If you can view a picture, select pieces and hardware and assemble them as pictured as well as work a screwdriver you will have zero issues. The cart is very sturdy and with this model being priced the same as the ones with the side shelves there isn't any reason to not choose this one unless space is an issue for whatever reason. I was amazed when assembling it to find that nearly everything is made from either stamped or cast steel or possibly aluminum. There are only 3 things I could find that are plastic:. wheels, axle cover and the tabs below the latches on the removable ash pan. Outstanding. Would recommend this to anyone in the market for a grill/smoker. I have only used it once since assembling it and it is just as good at holding heat as my brother's BGE but at least half the weight and a third of the cost. I'm not easily impressed but I would have paid up to $500 for something like this and would have thought it was still an incredible value.

                            KAMADO is Japanese for Stove
                            The Kamado is based on some of the earliest cooking technologies. Japanese “mushikamado" I understand is a wood stove introduced to Americans after the Second World War. Eventually, it became known as a "kamado" which literally means "stove" in Japanese. I received the King Grill Akorn 6 + years ago as a Father’s Day gift. It took me and my two boys to assemble it due to the weight of the tub with two holding and one inserting the bolts. It takes some use to become familiar with the heat vs flame of a conventional grill. The design is smart with an easily removed ash pan. It too is heavy but had a Y shaped support to hold the pan while you fasten the catches. I start my story here because that Y shaped support was the first to break. Spot welds failed. Moving on I realized that the Akorn is great in holding in smoke but terrible with holding out rain. The ash pan now weighed a ton because it is filled with water. And with water comes rust. The fire pit has rusted through. While adding my charcoal, the steel (not stainless) fire grate fell through into the ash pit. So, my experience with the King Grill Akorn was a B- If it weren’t for the great work surface, my rating would have been lower.
