Championship-Level Barbecue, at Home
Grill, smoke and bake with the Saffire Grill & Smoker Kamado

I've been cooking on this every night since I got it. Smoking, grilling, everything has turned out great. Pleased with the purchase.

I liked everything about this transaction, from ordering to delivery to actual use. Josh did a great job with customer service before the sale and followed up after the sale to resolve the one minor "glitch" I had. The high quality construction of this grill is evident throughout, from heavy ceramic to stainless steel hardware, which for me is a must, living in corrosive salt air location. I liked that everything was included, like multi-level stainless grates, ash removal pan, split charcoal holder and ceramic plates for offset cooking. There is enough room between the ash pan and the charcoal holder for fire starters, so they easily ignite the charcoal without getting 'smothered'. I just light them and walk away with vents fully open. Super hot and ready to go in 20 minutes.

The one "glitch" I mentioned was the stainless heat shield plate under the unit. The first one was undersized. They responded immediately to email and shipped a replacement right away. This one was better, but still not reaching the notches on the legs to keep it above the wood support base. They shipped another slightly larger plate and it fit perfectly.

Any company can get good reviews when nothing goes wrong. To me, the measure of a really good company and people is how they react when things do not go perfectly. Granted, mine was a minor issue, but they stuck with it and made sure I was happy and they did it willingly and very promptly. That is a mark of a good outfit.

Looking forward to pork shoulder, then on to the brisket.

I purchased my first Saffire grill soon after I retired from the Navy in 2008 as I wanted another competitor's grill, but I did some research and found the best on the market. I can't tell you the exact year I bought it, but it was before the serial numbers were placed on the hinge. I drove over 50 miles to the nearest dealer, and I have to tell you, he really tried to sell me the grill, but I didn't tell him my mind was made up before I even got to his store. I purchased the black 19" Saffire with a granite-top table, and he was so proud to make the sale. I let him think he made the better sale to me. I've used the Saffire at least once a week when I'm not traveling for work and the weather permits (just rain because I'm in Pennsylvania), and we grill out year around. I love my Saffire so much I recently bought another one. Why? Because of the new features.

It's easier to clean the ash out. I searched forever to find a small metal shovel to fit the access port.
The wood chip insertion. So much easier now with the round port.
The new fire box. Why? I just wanted to try it.

My grill is all original. The only thing I had to replace is the cover. I'm on my 3rd cover just from weather and the sun's rays. Some day I'll build a pavilion for my Saffire collection, smoking and grilling what I need to survive. I'm diabetic and grilled food helps me maintain blood sugar.

Fits unit perfectly. Plenty of room for a Dutch oven and a smoking pan on top.
