Explore the Broil King Keg 5000: The Ultimate Charcoal Kamado Grill

Fast, Flavor-Rich Charcoal Cooking with Kamado Efficiency

The Broil King Keg 5000 Steel Charcoal Kamado Grill delivers authentic charcoal flavor with faster heat-up times and exceptional heat retention, all wrapped in a rugged steel kamado design. Built by Broil King in North America, this grill combines traditional kamado performance with modern materials for durability, efficiency, and ease of use.

Unlike ceramic kamados, the steel construction allows the Keg 5000 to heat up quickly while maintaining consistent temperatures—perfect for grilling, roasting, smoking, and searing with true charcoal flavor.

High-Efficiency Steel Kamado Design

The insulated 0.75-inch steel body and enclosed kamado design lock in heat, allowing charcoal to burn hotter and more efficiently. This results in faster cooking times, reduced fuel consumption, and even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface. Whether you’re searing steaks or slow-smoking ribs, the Keg 5000 delivers consistent, predictable results.

Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Cooking Performance

Durable cast iron cooking grates absorb and retain heat exceptionally well, producing bold sear marks while enhancing natural flavors. With 480 square inches of total grilling area and a spacious 24" × 24" cooking grid, there’s ample room for family meals and weekend gatherings.

Built for Durability and Convenience

Designed for long-term outdoor use, the Keg 5000 features a painted steel exterior, sturdy steel bands and hinges, and a freestanding cart with wheels for easy mobility. Integrated side shelves provide convenient prep space, while the built-in analog thermometer allows precise temperature monitoring throughout the cook.
