Learning to utilize a Kamado
Low and Slow cooking in a ceramic smoker is how meat absorbs the complex flavours from the charcoal and your smoking woods added for a focused flavour profile. Heat in the Kamado is controlled by a combination of the quantity of fuel (wood, charcoal), air circulation from the bottom of the griddle called the draft door and how much heat and air is released from the top thru the damper.The real skill in learning to barbecue or griddle with a Kamado is controlling the heat. It needs a tiny learning to control the airflow. You need to use a thermometer to estimate the temperature and once it is at a desired heat, it takes very little tuning to maintain the tempature within a few degrees. Metal charcoal grills really radiate and loose heat like a sift looses water. The more air that is exposed to the charcoal or wood, the warmer and quicker it'll burn.
You can simply set your target cooking temp, go to sleep, awake to find it chugging away at the same temp you left it..Which Kamado Griddle Should I Buy?
Below is my private research. I asked the question , which Kamado BBQ should I buy, and got some clear answers.
The highest end griddle of all the Kamado style griddles costing in the area of $4,000 is the Komodo Kamado Grill. It involves the use of a different kind of material for insulation called a 2 part refactory material. The Komodo Kamado comes in tiled and coated versions.The two layers are engineered to bear very high temperatures, but one layer is intended to hold heat. The reports on this material is that it lasts a really long time and is much less prone to cracking and damage compared with other Kamado Grills.
The tiled Kamados wiegh almost 500 pounds, but they seem like pieces of art. It's also got a gas starter option that is one of the few ad-on items for the Komodo. Like most premium products, it comes with very little further choices, although I think a side-table option is coming soon. All in all, this is the top Kamado on the market. If price isn?t a problem I?d go with the Komodo Kamado griddle. All the reviews insist that it is the very best quality griddle.
I think the Big Green Egg is maybe the most generally known ceramic grill. The Big Green Egg or BGE as its fans call it. It?s limited options in color (Green) isn?t so much of an issue , but you?ll need to get an aftermarket gas starter if you would like convenience of lighting it up.It has a professional site, although you can't buy new Gigantic Green Eggs online, you'll have to go to a specialty B.B.Q store to find them. The BGE has a loyal following and appears to be the most professionally run of all of the Kamado BBQs. Or, you can look up dealers on their website. For a factory manufactured Kamado at a more reasonable price, I suspect the Giant Green Egg is a nice choice .
