Ceramic Charcoal BBQ Kamado Griller - Portable Tabletop The Cadet Series Smoker

An excellent small kamado cooker/smoker. Well constructed, aesthetically pleasing and most importantly heats up well and holds temp well considering its size. Simple and quick assembly with included instructions. Initial burn in with lump charcoal was quick and allowed for cooking shortly thereafter. Made a dry aged bone in NY Strip and the results were perfect, including a great sear/crust as the cooking grate is not very high above the coals. This will be a problem for low/slow cooks but I believe there is a small heat deflecting grate available from another company that will fit the 13” opening.As a long time owner and frequent user of a large BGE, I can attest to the quality of the London Sunshine mini grill. If you’re in need of a small cooker for 1-2 people, this is nearly perfect at the price. Enjoy!

Great little ceramic grill. Sturdy, compact and easy to use. Not too heavy so it’s easy to move around and it also looks good.

The media could not be loaded. Well constructed, sturdy, beautiful glaze on the outside. Works very well after a couple of practice runs before cooking anything . Temperature control is precise once getting used to it. You won’t be cooking for an army on it, but that’s the point. One or two person grill, the charcoal flavor is where it’s at! Enjoy!Very hefty for its size, I think it weighs about 50 +/- lbs. , but that also shows the quality of it. Some minor assembly required. Not bad. Recommend to the die hard charcoal grillers who love to try some new grilling/smoking techniques, and dip their toe into an affordable Kamado style cooker. And it uses a lot less charcoal than my vertical box smoker!

What I love; how adorable it is, aesthetically it is perfect. It also makes amazing BBQ. It took a while to learn how to use it. But after it was perfect.What I didn’t like; the first time I used it, sticking to the manufacturer’s manual advisory, I still managed to crack the exterior shelling. I was told that as long as the heat isn’t to extensive, that I should be fine. But regardless it happened (didn’t even exceed 250 degrees). Being one who loves everything to be perfect aesthetically, I was heartbroken. Being the man that find a way to resolve all of life’s problems, I managed to figure out how to conceal the damage. If I was to do this again and for those first timers. Do what I learned. If you cost the inside top part with two part epoxy resin, which is good for over a thousand degrees. That will prevent any chance of cracking. Some here may thinking that I’m nuts because it could penetrate my burger or whatever I’m cooking, but in reality it doesn’t. It hasn’t peeled, cracked or chopped, regardless it will be covered with a thick coat of black soot. Which could cover any evidence of concealment.

It is small but it's perfect for 1-2 people.

Totally amazed at this little Kamado grill! Everything was top notch from ordering, to delivery, to our first meal. Delivered within 24 hours of order. Easy to unpack and assemble (~20 minutes). Everything needed was included in box (screwdriver, wrench, etc). After filling the bottom with lump charcoal (separate purchase) and adjusting the vents, this grill was up to temperature and ready to cook in no time! I think it was 45 minutes from lighting of charcoal to removing the steak and shrimp and shutting it down. The taste was amazing and so much better than our gas grill! This grill is the perfect size for 1-2 people. Would definitely recommend!

What an amazing company. This is a quality ceramic smoker/grill. I have a big green egg and I wanted something smaller and I didn’t want to pay the enormous price for the mini max. I saw this product on Amazon and was somewhat skeptical, but thought I’d give it a shot because of the great price. This is every bit the quality and craftsmanship of a big green egg. It comes with a stand and everything is so well thought out. They also include a screwdriver and wrench for assembling the stand and putting the handle on the cooker. I am elated with joy and feel like I’ve got the best deal I’ve had in years on a ceramic cooker.

Love this grill! I found an antique pulley and put on there with plenty of room for grill accessories, gets hot easy to light, I could go on and on, buy it!
