Grilling has always been something I have looked forward too and this makes it even more enjoyable especially seeing family members smile and say how good it made the skewers taste, will definitely be checking the site for any expansion tools or gadgets.

Well made, perfect size for tailgating

Amazing quality - all the pieces fit perfectly, nothing feels flimsy. A lot of thought went into the design. All fits perfectly into a dishwasher.

Used twice so far and I love it. Good size for 2-6 people. So convenient to grill right on top of the table. Doesn’t get too hot around the grill. Consistent airflow keeps the charcoal burning hot and long. Highly recommend.

Like my old Rolleiflex camera, a beautifully engineered instrument. Everyone should consider owning or gifting one to a charcoal grill lover!

Just what I was looking for! Nice to have the complete "kit" to get started in yakitori grilling adventures! Just the right size and augmented with the right accessories too. I look forward to using this for the many times we cook in our backyard year round. Good investment!

Bought for my husband for Christmas.
We've only used it a few times but so far it's been amazing. It feels super sturdy and well built.

I bought one and it is perfect for 2! Maybe even for 4 but six might be a stretch. Given the great design and compactness i bought one each for my two older sons as a housewarming gift … ideal for NYC terraces and balconies and little excursions to the nearby parks. They loved it too. I recommend to get at least the basic bundle as the place mat is ideal and you get all the other extras for very little additional cost … I had to upgrade retroactively, but the staff was very helpful and accommodating … still try to avoid my mistake!

Solid build, packaged very well, and arrived fast and undamaged. Taking it out to Big Bend, TX...will post some pics.

Construction, fit and finish is better than I expected. Have only used it once but it held heat real well even with just regular Kingsford briquettes. The skewers are pretty good and flat, which work better with rails than than the half circle cutouts that I guess are for round skewers. I don't expect to use it for regular grate grilling, but it would be just fine for smaller items cooked hot and fast on the grates. All in all, a pretty nice little unit for the price.

Love the grill. Very functional for 2-4 people. It’s great for grilling on the patio or tailgating. I would recommend to a friend
Walter K.
Works great and is very well made. Lots of family fun.

Made Greek lamb popsicles on first go. Super easy and delicious. I’m also using this when I camp as it’s the perfect size for 2 or 3 folks.

Fun for date night or family 1-4 looking to bbq out

Bought for a fathers day gift for my husband. He loves it. It’s heavy duty. Will surely recommend.

Did Shish Kabob with onions, mushrooms, green peppers, filet mignon. It was great.

This is the perfect grill for weeknight grilling. Easy to set up and quick to bring up to temp. It cleans up so easy and the finish cures very nicely. The grate-less option for skewers is an absolute delight. I hardly have any use for a grate anymore making seamless charring of tender cuts, especially fish, a breeze.

I love this grill! It's exactly what I was looking for.

Beautiful and compact steel charcoal grill, fits in my rental patio so well and can’t wait to fire her up year round at home and on the go! Solid construction and efficient heating with all the charcoal flavor.

The Yak is really well-built and will last for years. Every aspect of the grill system works perfectly together. I can tell that the designer is a real grilling fan. I now have a newly discovered obsession: Korean BBQ. Five stars all the way to the dinner table!
Evan K.
A beautiful product ,clean and well-packaged.
The Yak Grill is versatile and I will use it for conventional grilling and Yakitori on Binchotan
charcoal. Plus it is incredibly easy to clean, unlike my precious grills.
Brian S.
I loved the this bundle so much, I bought one for my son in law. Only criticism is that the mesh grill does rust, which surprised me.
John L.
Love that the grill is dishwasher safe. Makes clean up so much easier. Easy to use and put away.

I consider barbequing/grilling a passion of mine and I have no shortage of grilling devices (kamado smokers, pellet grills, traditional charcoal grills, etc). Wifey scoffed at the notion of yet another grilling device, but her opinion was quickly changed after having yakitori off of the yak grill. I purchased the combo that came with additional grill grates and a carrying case, and the whole set arrived just in time for 4th of July. Never having done yakitori before, I was surprised at how easily the yak grill produced quality skewers right off own backyard patio table. Perfect amount of smoke flavor and maintains all the juiciness.
The grill itself is made of high quality materials, and I would say the most impressive part of the device is the ability to maintain heat consistently without flare-ups (I purchased both the thanh charocoal as well as the jealous devil chunx). Everything I threw at it, it cooked without any flare-ups - from lean cuts of chicken breast and veges, to fattier cuts of meat (thigh, ribeye skewers) - no issues whatsoever. The ports on the bottom of the grill effectively allow oxygen to flow at just the perfect rate. If I leave food on for too long, it does not over-cook or scorch as traditional charcoal grills would. In this sense, this is a highly forgiving grill for those new to cooking with charcoal.
The device exceeded my expectations and the support was second to none. I made a mistake on my order and ordered the wrong item - again, it was my mistake. The owner of yak grills personally responded to me and went above and beyond to make it right. I don't leave reviews normally, but felt compelled to do so here based not only on a very good product, but amazing customer service to match.
Overall, I would recommend a yak grill as a versatile grilling device that's equally effective for the backyard or tailgating/camping.

I really wanted to love the grill but so far I'm 50%/50% on the usability.
Pros:
I was concerned about the plastic helper pieces melting, but it was really well designed and the heat never endangered the rubber paddings.
Fantastic construction. Heavy/well made.
Cons:
I tried cooking on the rooftop but the charcoal could not maintain a consistent heat due to the wind we had. It wasn't heavy like a storm but there was a breeze. Since I couldn't maintain a heat, I had to actually abandon using the grill for that meal. I'm unsure if it'll happen again but I'm very wary about using it again due to the hassle last time.

Great product. Excellent quality and really fun way to grill and hang with family and friends
