The Large Saffire offers grilling, smoking and baking experiences suitable for most families. With up to 464 in2 of cooking space, the Large is big enough to cook the main course for a party, yet small enough to justify dinner for two. The main cooking grid offers a spacious 284 in2 of cooking space, but add your included Secondary Cooking Grid in for an additional 180 in2! This is the average size that people look for first in a kamado grill. However, there isn’t anything “average” about this grill. Featuring the Smokin’ Chip Feeder port for the easiest and “on-demand” smoke you will find in any smoker, coupled with the insane insulative properties of the ceramic body and Crucible firebox within. This means that not only does the Large Saffire offer stable temperatures throughout your smoke, but it’s easy to add more smoke at any point in time throughout the cooking experience. Grilling is easy too! Drop half of the cooking grid down near the fire to sear on one half of the grill while you cook on the other, for the ultimate flame-kissed flavor combined with a full-cooked experience. With the Two-Piece Heat Deflector, you can smoke or bake. Bake at 350-400° F for great tasting, smokey bread, or bake at 500 to 600° F for a wood smoked pizza in your own backyard! With this Saffire, you can grill, bake or smoke anything, with less work!
This kamado is covered by Saffire’s Limited Lifetime Warranty for the grill ceramics and 304 stainless steel parts. That’s how much we believe in the durability of your Saffire! The Revolutionary Crucible Kamado Firebox, with our very own twelve fire brick design to relieve stress and reduce breakage, will have you cooking in no time, with less worry about if you ever even need to fill out any forms to get replacement parts. In addition, we have carefully designed every outside component for the ultimate rust-resistance. 304 stainless steel keeps your grill looking great in any weather, all year round, and ceramic featuring fired-on glaze can withstand rain, snow, ice and heat. When other grills begin to rust, bubble or fall apart, your Saffire will continue to stand tall and shine!

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 ordered a Black Saffire Large 19″ Platinum for an outdoor kitchen. This was after due diligence on the competitors such as Green Egg, Kamado Joe, and some other brands at various home improvement stores. Before purchasing, the value of the Saffire stood out beyond the others. Stainless steel hardware, solid construction, and a general excellent appearance to the grill that goes above the others. The lifetime warranty also made it an easy decision. Since getting it up and running, I’ve cooked chicken and steak, which were absolutely fabulous given I had never used an egg-type grill. My family had never tasted such a great flavor (I haven’t used any smoke yet) using just wood charcoal. Next up is a slow-cooked pork or beef roast, and of course some ribs. Sidenote – I also installed a new natural gas grill for another part of the kitchen and I can already tell it will only be used for convenience, as it’s not even close to what the Saffire can do with cooking!
This is a great grill and I highly recommend you taking a look at Saffire if you’re shopping for a top-notch product.
Customer loves the accessories and product
This is my third Kamado!
The grill is absolutely gorgeous. Very high quality.
I have owned my Platinum series for about a year now. I love everything about it and having more fun cooking on it than I thought. Smoking (ribs), Grilling (my new favorite – Picanha) and high heat cooks like Pizza, the versatility is fantastic. I did a ton of research and found the Saffire to be my choice primarily because of the following: 1) Crucible Firebox, the lower possibility of failure compared to other brands. 2) The Charcoal basket. Higher airflow and ease of cleaning the ash pan. 3) Stainless steel hardware. It lasts longer and looks fantastic.
