Napoleon PRO22K-LEG 57 cm Charcoal Kettle Grill
The Napoleon PRO22K-LEG Charcoal Kettle Grill is a premium 57 cm charcoal barbecue designed for people who love real charcoal flavour with modern control and flexibility. Whether you're grilling steaks, smoking ribs, or slow-roasting a whole chicken, this kettle delivers consistent, predictable results with excellent fuel efficiency.
The 57 cm cooking surface provides ample room for family meals or entertaining guests, while Napoleon’s iconic porcelain-coated cast iron WAVE™ cooking grids deliver exceptional heat retention and distinctive sear marks. These hinged grids allow you to easily add charcoal, wood chunks, or water pans without interrupting your cook.
Napoleon’s Vortex heat management system improves airflow and convection inside the kettle, allowing for more efficient fuel use and more even cooking. Combined with precise stainless steel air vents and the integrated ACCU-PROBE™ temperature gauge, you have full control whether cooking hot and fast or low and slow.
Built for durability, the porcelain-enameled lid and bowl resist rust and wear, while the heavy-duty ash catcher makes cleanup simple. The included stainless steel extension ring allows for rotisserie cooking, expanding your capabilities even further.
This is a versatile, high-quality charcoal kettle grill suitable for beginners and experienced barbecue enthusiasts alike.
