I've been looking to purchase one of these for the last couple weeks. Hadn't had the time and just checked today to see the price had dropped nearly $40. Available from both Walmart & Amazon (although Amazon shows 1-2 months to ship). Lowest price (by $30) according to CCC.

Walmart (free shipping or in-store pickup):
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Akorn-...r/52497353

Amazon (1-2 months):
https://www.amazon.com/Char-Grill...00EBWBFQQ/
  • 153 Square inch primary cooking area with cast iron grates
  • Kamado style grills promote even heating to enhance flavor
  • Easy dump ash pan for fast and simple cleanup
  • Top and bottom air dampers for easy and precise temperature control
  • More durable, affordable, and lighter weight than ceramic grills - great for tailgating, camping or going to the park
  • Holds heat like the more expensive ceramic grills - grill more with less charcoal
  • Features dual air-flow dampers, hinged locking lid, heat gauge, and triple wall steel with insulation to deliver a superior grilling experience
  • Convenient handles for portability and grilling on the go - perfect for camping, tailgating, RV, and more
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

The full size usually goes on clearance within the next month or so.
This grill/smoker reminds me of the beehive bbq grill from the Simpsons.
I've never felt the need to go to ceramic. It's not an upgrade. Both have benefits and drawbacks.

Too small for my tastes, but if you're curious and wanting to get into kamado style cooking, this certainly is about as cheap as you can get. Just don't be surprised if you find yourself wanting something bigger and better (and maybe ceramic) pretty quickly.

Love my kamados. Best bbq/smoker I've used. Anything from slow and low to 800 for searing steaks. This should be really good for anyone interested in trying kamado cooking but as stated earlier you'll probably soon be looking for a big ceramic model.

Agreed, I've had the full size one for years now and see no need for ceramic.

Yeah, I'm not seeing a deal here either. $54 with next price drop and I'll bite.
