Blaze 20-Inch Cast Aluminum Kamado

Blaze's volume seller and the model most 32-inch outdoor kitchens are built around. It adds a 10,000 BTU rear infrared rotisserie burner, interior halogen lighting and illuminated control knobs to the BCM's four 14,000 BTU cast stainless burners, for 66,000 BTU total. The price quoted is the BUILT-IN HEAD ONLY in propane at BBQGuys; natural gas runs about $250 more and the freestanding cart version is a separate SKU. The LTE+ is the current revision of the long-running LTE, with a lift-assist hood and a redesigned double-lined lid.

Blaze's entry into the built-in outdoor-kitchen market, and as of 2026 the line that replaced the older Prelude LBM in Blaze's own catalog. Four cast 304 stainless burners at 14,000 BTU each, 9mm triangular stainless cooking rods, heat-zone dividers and a lifetime warranty on everything that carries heat. The price quoted is for the BUILT-IN HEAD ONLY at BBQGuys; the same head on a Blaze cart is a separate SKU that lands several hundred dollars higher. Against the Premium LTE+ above it, the BCM drops the rear infrared rotisserie burner, the interior lights and the illuminated knobs.

Blaze's flagship built-in, and the point at which the brand stops competing on value. Three 18,000 BTU cast stainless H-burners replace the LTE's four tube burners, running 54,000 BTU into 816 square inches under 12mm hexagonal cooking rods roughly a third thicker than the LTE's 9mm. A rotisserie kit with a waterproof motor is included rather than optional, along with a 10,000 BTU rear infrared burner. Price quoted is the BUILT-IN HEAD ONLY in propane at BBQGuys, the authorized dealer; Blaze itself publishes no prices.

Primo is the one American-made ceramic kamado, built in Georgia, and the only major brand with an oval rather than round firebox. The oval shape is the point: a firebox divider splits it lengthwise so one end runs hot and the other indirect, giving true two-zone cooking that a round kamado cannot do without stacking racks. The All-In-One configuration is the grill on a cradle with locking casters, fold-down side tables, heat deflectors, deflector racks and the firebox divider included.

The 24-inch Big Joe in Series II trim: 450 sq in of grate, Kontrol Tower vent, Air Lift hinge and the two-tier Divide & Conquer rack, on a cart with locking wheels. It is the Classic Joe II scaled up by six inches of grid, which is the difference between one packer brisket and two. Series III adds a third rack tier and premium aluminum shelves for about $1,000 more.

The Kamado Joe Konnected Joe is an 18-inch ceramic kamado with pellet-grill convenience bolted on: a push-button electric fire starter lights the charcoal for you, and a WiFi-connected fan holds your set temperature automatically while real lump charcoal does the flavoring.
