Certain points of the Primo BBQ set it above its competitors. A great piece of kit we couldn’t live without
Rupert Rowley
Michelin starred chef, Fischers of Baslow, Derbyshire
Having looked at other ceramic grills, I finally settled on "The Primo", it's oval shape & design allows me to cook on the ceramic plate & on the grill rack at the same time. Adding wood chips to the coal for flavour is easy. The Primo is so very versatile, perfect for a busy kitchen.

What sets the Primo XL apart is the ability to cook above the coals & indirectly above the ceramic plate at the same time. It is really fuel efficient, there's no need for refuelling during service & the way I can cook for large numbers is important to me too.

In my opinion it’s the Daddy of all BBQ’s – Cooking with the Primo is unmatched, a truly amazing piece of “Must have” Kit that should be on any serious chef's wish list.

I think the primo grill and smoker is in a class of its own. It's as controllable as a conventional oven. Perfect for cooking pizza, smoking and cooking joints on. I've used it for catering events and it plays with it, outshining any other BBQ I've ever used

I am now addicted to cooking on this thing

A new Era of Barbecuing is here.

One where your grill can be used not just to sear, but for low and slow cooking, roasting, baking, and even to smoke food over natural lumpwood charcoal.

All ceramic BBQ grills are not created equal! Primo takes no short cuts and is made of premium-grade ceramics for superior heat and moisture retention.

With 60% more efficiency than competing grills, Primo burns less fuel, reaches desired cooking temperature faster, and allows less moisture to escape, reducing cooking times and producing juicier meat and more flavoursome food.

Our unique oval design also allows for you to cook using both direct and indirect methods at the same time! Using our divider plate, you can cook a steak with direct heat on one side and chicken with indirect heat on the other side!

With a Primo, you can hot-smoke, cold-smoke, grill, sear, roast and bake. Making it the most versatile grill of its kind, in the world.
