Kasai Long Kasai Konro Charcoal Grill - NEW FOR 2025

The Japanese inspired Kasai Long Kasai Konro Charcoal Grill, also known as a Hibachi or Shichirin, is British designed, enhancing traditional cooking techniques, and manufactured in Lancashire with the best quality British-made brushed stainless steel combined with a special naturally sourced insulating material to optimise heat retention to reflect heat back into the grill, creating a more consistent temperature throughout cooking, using fire bricks which are each fitted together precisely by hand for a strong, tighter, more fire-resistant quality grill.

The versatile Kasai Long Kasai Konro Charcoal Grill, is designed for commercial kitchens, it's a regular choice for use in Michelin starred restaurants, and home use as it's compact design will fit any surface to provide real versatility, superor flavours plus an enjoyable cooking experience. It is fantastic for grilling meats, fish, and vegetables, and will also excel as a sous vide finishing tool, so roast, smoke, tandoor, bake, grill, and slowcook, or cook super fast or low and slow as when using a premium quality lump charcoal, or Binchotan, temperatures of upto 750c will be achieved.

The compact size, shape superior heat-insulation properties of the firebrick/ceramic construction found in Kasai Konro Charcoal Grills means that charcoal used to power them up will burn longer than in conventional charcoal barbeques. Plus as the food is only a few centimetres away from the charcoal these grills are just perfect for cooking skewers of meat or sliced vegetables with the juices dripping down being instantly evaporated into a smoky cloud of taste to infuse the food on the grill with distinctive flavours. The high temperatures will also be a dream for creating crisp caramelised skins on chicken and other meats.

It is recommended to fire a Kasai Konro Charcoal Grill with Binchotan charcoal due to its long burning properties and it's ability to seal in the natural flavours without imparting any other aromas. Binchotan produces inimitable smokiness when cooking, without the traditional BBQ’s bitter and burnt flavours and, once finished, the coals can be cooled, left to dry and used again.

Once the vermiculite tiles used to create the insulation reach the end of their life there will be no need to replace the full Kasai Konro Charcoal Grill as the tiles can simply be replaced. Even better the old tiles can be ground and used by gardeners as they’re an effective soil conditioner loosening compacted soil to provide drainage, and will hold three to four times its weight in water
