There is a reason that ceramic cookers have withstood over 3,000 years of use. Cooking with the Vision Kamado provides unprecedented results, from grilling burgers to searing steaks to smoking your favorite cuts of meat. It's about getting it consistently right, time after time. The Vision Kamado makes the novice grill cook an expert chef! The design of the Vision Kamado creates a controlled chimney effect that allows for hassle-free effortless starting and quickly reaches cooking temperature while providing the most versatile and effective way to grill, smoke, bake, roast and barbeque foods of all types. Its design allows users to meticulously control temperature and cooking times, from low temperatures needed for smoking to high searing temperatures for locking the moisture and flavors of your favorite filet cut. The dual wall ceramic construction keeps the heat inside the cooking pot and the cold air out making the Vision Kamado a grill for all seasons. So regardless of outdoor temperatures the Vision Kamado is an effective cooking appliance every day of the year. Part of our mission is to develop products that are environmentally friendly and wherever possible use recycled or replenishable materials. We use natural clay elements to fabricate the ceramic cooking pot and interior cooking chamber, designed stainless components to be easily removed and recycled when the grill is disposed and bamboo for all wood accents because of its natural beauty and because it is a fast renewable resource. In a world caught up in high technology, computer controlled cooking systems and fast paced lifestyles the Vision Kamado brings us back to the basics that have worked since our ancestors learned to cook using clay pots. The Vision Kamado's simplicity in design and operation make even the most modest cook the preeminent chef of the neighborhood!
