Japanese Barbecues
Why buy an original Konro barbecue grill?
The Konro grill, or the hibachi grill, is the most popular grill in Japan – used for cooking Japanese BBQ, grilling meat, and preparing a variety of foods with a delicious barbecue flavour. Made from porous clay formed in the sea from fossilised remains, it has superior heat insulation properties that can create a delicious outer layer to your food without losing the moist tender meat inside.
The Konro grill is a traditional Japanese charcoal grill made of diatomaceous earth, which gives the grill extraordinary heat retention. The grill design creates even heat distribution without scorching, helping capture and preserve flavours. And because grilling happens close to the charcoal, the juices drip down and infuse the food with delicious smoke.
We have all sizes and shapes of Japanese Konro BBQ grill to ensure you aren’t missing anything. Whether you need a new Konro grill, a starter kit or just some new skewers, kick off your Japanese barbecue the right way.
What should I use with my Konro grill?
What's a barbecue without a great selection of marinades and sauces to complement the outdoor chef's craft? Whether you are looking to add spice, depth of flavour or just turn the umami factor up to eleven, browse our range of sauces: classical tonkatsu and yakiniku, an original organic Japanese ketchup and a spicy ra-yu pepper.
