This big guy is meant for 10-15 people, the whole gang and then some! You'll find this model in some hipper restaurants. 

About Konro Grills The Japanese word “konro” indicates any heat source used for cooking. A konro barbecue is a special kind of Japanese grill that is generally long and narrow enough that the yakitori skewers can rest on the walls of the box and not fall into the coals below. There are also wider versions to accommodate larger pieces of meat, like a ribeye steak. Kaginushi Kogyo konro grills are uniquely made from diatomite sediment found in Japan's Noto peninsula, Ishikawa, and Hokkaido. This material is ground, mixed with water, molded, and baked into blocks. You can read more them here. 

Konro Grills are also often paired with Binchotan charcoal, which you can read about here.

  • Make sure the fire is completely extinguished after use.
  • The metal parts will get hot. Use caution when handling.
  • The metal parts can be sharp and cause scrape or cuts. Be cautious when handling
  • Traditional Konros are ceramic. When dropped or banged, it can break. 
  • Metal Konros can rust, so don't leave them uncovered outdoors.
  • Never pour water into the Konro to put out the fire. This will cause the Konro to break.

Loving My Konro

"I’ve been eyeing this konro for several years but didn’t have the chance to pick one up. Thanks to a recent trip to the Edmonton store and a great bundle price, I finally brought one home. Such excellent advice from the expert in store! It’s been so fun trying different foods and we love the charcoal. Highly recommend and the size is just right. Meat cooks fast and we can reuse the charcoal. Delicious!"

Q&A

What are the dimensions of the Large Konro grill?
The Large Yakitori grill is 21cm x 23cm x 77cm!
Hello, If I purchase the large size, are we able to use just one side of the grill if that's all that is needed, or is it better to utilize the whole grill? Thanks!
Hey there, you can totally just use a section at a time, if you don't need the whole cooking area. I've banked charcoal to one side in the past, it works great either way! - Ellie
Do you have English instructions for this grill?
Hey there, we are in the process of translating them! If you email me at luke@knifewear.mom I'll be sure to send them over to you once they are ready!
