Reviews for Primo Oval Jack Daniel's Edition XL 400 Charcoal Ceramic Kamado Grill

The Grill is Outstanding

I have grilled for more than 20 years and bought the Primo 400XL about seven years ago after owning 2 weber grills (1) platinum gas and (1) charcoal. I refurbed the gas grill and gave it away and sold the charcoal one. I can't say enough about the Primo as I was minutes away from buying a Green Egg and at the last minute could not walk away from the value and design of the Primo. I am an Engineer and was intrigued by the design and quality of the Primo at first glance and boy was I ever right as many of my friends have Green Eggs and they all envy my Primo. I don't want to say anything negative regarding the Green Egg as I believe it is a great Grill, however; time and time again I believe there are many more options in terms of offset cooking and ease of use. I put many money where mouth is and I've purchase a second one as my family is a large family and finally got to the point where I was not able to keep up with the demand. I am pleased and highly recommend the grill.

This is the alpha male of Kamado Cookers

I looked at several "XL" (24" grid) cookers. I was consdering the Kamado Joe Big Joe, the Big Green Egg XL and the Weber Summit. Then somehow I sort of stumbled on an ad for this grill. I had never heard of it, but the more I looked into it, the more intriguing it became. I picked one up in a cart and couldn't be happier. you'll read this a lot, but the oval shape really does give you a lot of advantages when it comes to setting up two zone cooking. The Being an oval shape also lends well to very large pieces of meat, especially long cuts like full packer briskets or multiple slabs of ribs. Primo makes a bunch of great accessories as well including a nice variety of grates and even solid cast iron plates that can turn it into a griddle. Best of all, the entire product lines is made in the USA, not in Mexico or China.

6 yrs and going strong

I researched every ceramic grill that I could before I bought my Primo XL in 2013. The hip thing was to buy a BGE... a lot of my friends had one. After my research, it made more sense to buy the Primo due to it's versatility. I have had it for 6 years and I wouldn't change my purchase at all. I LOVE IT!!!

The Primo Oval XL is the best grill/smoker I've found!

I've owned my grill for a yr now and probably have had 100+ cooks on it. Lots of grilling, roasting, baking (pizzas) and more recently some long low and slow smoking. I researched for a good while before buying, I cooked on the 3 biggest selling brands, BGE, Primo, and KJ. My finding is you really can't go wrong with any of the top branded ceramic grills. The Kamado Joe offers the best value because you get more accessories included than with the BGE or Primo. That said, the versatility of the Primo Oval XL is unrivaled...true dual zone cooking from the firepit up and that separates it from the other two. For me it's not so much the Primo Oval XL is better than the KJ or BGE...it's more about where it's made (USA) what it can do that the other round ceramic grills cannot. I'm an empty nester and bought the Oval XL...the extra space comes in handy.

Primo Oval XL = Prime Grill Quality and Customer Service

Primo Ceramics by far are of the highest quality compared to BIG Green Egg and Kamado Joe. The shape has many advantages as you can truly do two zone cooking unlike with rounded kamados; in addition, the bottom vent is located close to the left side making the airflow start at that side and then making it around which kind of reminds me of the offset smoker. That design will produce better meats. Seems like Primo always evolve, and they have cracked Firebox instead of a whole one. I have also heard they might improve their hinge in the future that would be big improvement since that dome weights almost as much as the base, very heavy. And they are developing stainless steel grates which is also nice. I have had quite a hassle with getting primo grill due to shipping issues, but what surprised me is the responsiveness of both, Primo and BBQ Guys. You cannot go wrong with Primo Grill, they are champions at ceramic kamados at so many levels, always improving and are made in the USA which speaks - quality due to all the quality controls and environment laws & regulations we have in this country.

Best Money you will every spend on a grill

I have had my grill now for better than 18 months. Best money I have every spent. I love it we cook on it about 3 to 4 times a week. You need to get you one. My Bother-in -law has a green egg and he is jealous of my Primo Xl. also BBQGrills.com is the best place to buy.

Great Grill/smoker

I have had the Primo Oval XL for about six months and use it every weekend as well as many week nights. The weekends are typically spent smoking some pork butt or brisket...during the week we grill steaks, burgers, salmon....it is easy to use, I love this grill.

Primo Oval XL

The unit is well made as is the metal cart we got with it. We had one cross threaded bolt that we could not use but overall it went together without a problem. The sales and service people were quick to respond to any questions we had. The pork shoulder we smoked was tender and moist. It was better than the pork we have been smoking on our gas grill. The temperature was a lot easier to control than I thought it would be and we didn't use a lot of charcoal for 12 hours of smoking. We are very happy with the product.

Gave away the big gas grill!

The versatility and quality of the Primo is superb! We use this 3-4 times per week. With the divider, offset cooking is a breeze. Go on the Primo forum for recipes & user tips from other aficionados. This is an investment that pays big dividends in excellent tasting food.

Primo Oval XL is Xlent!!!

I have grilled and smoked all my life. My Dad bought his first Weber in 1972. I love to smoke and have competed in many contests. I bought my Primo XL 6 years ago. It is the most efficient and Versitile unit available. Buy it! It does it all. I cook the entire meal on it without a sweat.

Best size and most versatile ceramic cooker, period!

I definitely did my research ahead of time and this is the cooker I choose. My only complaint is I wish I would have purchased it sooner. If you love to BBQ and grill this is a must. First you need to be sold on a Komodo type cooker i.e., ceramic. From there, you have the choice of about five brands. Ceramic in general: Pros - Well insulated so food does not dry out - Keeps flavor in and you can taste a difference - Extremely efficient with charcoal - Can grill at a seating 700 degree or smoke at 150 degrees and everything in-between - Keeps temperature even an consistent - Due to large ash space and fuel conserving efficiency, you can reuse old coal for next cook. Just light it and let it warm up while you prepare your food; almost as simple as gas. Cons: - Heavy - Pricey - You will become addicted to outdoor cooking! Unique differences offered by the Promo Oval. 1. Much larger cooking area, the Green Egg, as well as other traditional shapes which are only 18" and are very limited. "Have you ever cooked on an 18" Weber Kettle it's just inconveniently too small". 2. Extra extended cooking racks for even more space are available. 3. Iron divider that fits in the fire box for true indirect cooking; great for steaks or anything in that matter where, you want indirect and direct cooking at the same time 4. A great user Forum site full of supporting users, as well the people at Primo are super helpful and knowledgeable. Lastly, the great thing about this cooker is the ease of use; I've cooked a brisket for 18 hours and never needed to add charcoal or even lift the lid during the entire cook! I truly believe Primo is the Cadillac of the "ceramic cookers". Another nice feature is if you add lots of coal at first, due to its efficiency you can just re-light what's left over from the last cook and a few more times depending on what your cooking; it's nice to just to go out and light it without cleaning ashes an pulling out the bag each time! I have had mine for close to five years now and still love it I now cook outdoors 3 to 4 days a week now:)
