Komodo Kamado OTB comes in two sizes, the full sized 23." Gen 2.2 Ultimate  and the patio sized  19.5" lil' Isla.    The revolutionary features listed below were designed to make charcoal cooking a pleasure and unusually user-friendly.

  Two-Layer Refractory Body -  The dense hot face is extremely durable, the outside layer of insulation prevents heat loss.  As less fuel can be burned to maintain a particular temperature , there is less airflow which results in food with less moisture loss... (read Juicy)  

  Performance - 16 lbs of charcoal burning at 235ºf can last 85 hours.

  Self-Opening - A trigger-latch located at the handle opens the lid slowly and automatically. No lifting is needed to open the lid. User adjustable spring hidden in the hinge keeps the top open on it's own. When the lid is closed, the trigger-latch self-locks to the base with no extra effort. Just close the lid and, click, it's locked.  The latch also has a roller bearing and cam action which effortlessly pulls the lid snugly closed. 

  Uniform Reflective Heat - Positioning the flue in the rear of the dome creates exceptional reflective temperature uniformity over more than 80% of the grill's area. These unvarying temperatures permit uniform browning of food across the grills surface. 

  Temperature Control - Cooking temperatures are easily and predictably controlled by regulating airflow.  A laser-cut low-airflow wheel gives you exact settings. Simple dial your temp feature permits set and forget cooking. 

  Safety -  At 400ºf inside the tile skin outside is cool enough to leave your hands on. Even at 700º you can't blister your hands on the insulted body.

  Luxury -  Over 82 lbs of 304 Stainless including 42 lbs of massive 3/8" rod grills is lavishly appointed throughout.  Everything is overkill and overbuilt but engineered to last many lifetimes. 

  Easy to Clean - The damper door opening is flush to the bottom of the unit making ash removal easy. A removable screen keeps hot coals safely inside. 

  Digital Electronic Control - Komodos come plug and play ready to use automatic digital temperature control devices which make cooking as easy as setting your kitchen oven.  BBQ Guru is 4 button simple..  With Rock's Stoker your cooker's temps can be controlled remotely by your phone or computer.

  Rotisserie Ready - Komodos are designed to use E-Z Que. rotisserie cradles.  While Komodo's low airflow cooking environment creates incredibly juicy birds, the rotisserie creates very uniform browning and the melting fat is self basting.

  Weather Proof - A high tech, NASA spin off industrial insulation is used as both the adhesive and grout for the tiles. It insulates by reflecting heat using nano ceramic spheres produced in a vacuum.  It is UV resistant, extremely durable and elastomeric so it won't crack when the cooker expands at high temps.

  Beautiful - This dome inspired by a heart shaped foil balloon is completely revolutionary and a product of outside-the-box thinking - thus the OTB design designation. Outside of being a perfect example of form-follows function, it's drop dead beautiful...
