How Much Does a Kamado Grill Cost in the UAE? 2026 Price Guide

Kamado grill prices in the UAE: Burnt Carbon from AED 1,500 (15″) to AED 8,435 (27″). Free delivery to all seven emirates. See the full AED table.

A Burnt Carbon ceramic kamado in the UAE starts at AED 1,500 for the 15″ Picnic and AED 8,435 for the 27″ Enterprise. The family size most people mean, the 21″ Superior, starts at AED 3,300. All seven glazes are the same price. Delivery is free to all seven emirates, with assembly arranged.

Those are the prices on the product pages, in dirhams, as of 12 November 2026. We sell these grills, so this guide is our own price list, not a survey of other brands. If a figure here ever disagrees with the range, the product page wins — that is the price you pay.

Kamado grill prices in the UAE

Six sizes. The “from” price is the price of every standard glaze of that size. Cooking area is the main grate only, worked out from the diameter (πr²) and rounded to the nearest 10 cm², the same figures as the size guide.

Size Grate Area Feeds Weight From
15″ Picnic 30 cm 710 cm² 2–4 37 kg AED 1,500
18″ Compact 39 cm 1,190 cm² 4–6 65 kg AED 2,600
21″ Superior 47 cm 1,730 cm² 6–8 83.5 kg AED 3,300
23″ Dreadnought 50 cm 1,960 cm² 10–12 91.5 kg AED 4,590
25″ Emperor 55 cm 2,380 cm² 12+ 120 kg AED 5,050
27″ Enterprise 59 cm 2,730 cm² 20+ 150 kg AED 8,435

The seven glazes — Olive Green, Carbon Black, Cobalt Blue, Pearl White, Signal Red, Desert Orange and Mustard Yellow — do not change the number. Pick the colour you want; the dirhams stay put.

Two finishes sit outside this table. Gold kintsugi is a commission our Dubai artists lay in 99% pure gold, made to order in about three weeks from sketch to fire. It is not a button on the product page, so the price is a quote, not a listing. Diwani calligraphy is currently unavailable. Neither is included in the “from” prices above.

How much does a kamado grill cost? Prices by size

The inch number on the lid is a label. The grate, in centimetres, is what you are buying. If you are not sure which row is yours, start with what size kamado you need and come back for the dirhams.

Small, table-top: the 15″ at AED 1,500

The 15″ Picnic is the entry price: AED 1,500, a 30 cm grate, about 710 cm², and it feeds two to four. It weighs 37 kg and ships on a short stand, with no side tables and no wheels. It is the whole kamado — same ceramic, same airflow — at table-top size, not a cheaper material at a lower price.

Family sizes: AED 2,600 to AED 3,300

The 18″ Compact starts at AED 2,600. A 39 cm grate, about 1,190 cm², feeds four to six, and this is the first size with side tables and a wheeled cart.

The 21″ Superior starts at AED 3,300. A 47 cm grate, about 1,730 cm², feeds six to eight. The step up from the 18″ adds about 540 cm² of grate — close to half as much cooking area again — for AED 700. On price per square centimetre of grate, the 21″ is the lowest of our six sizes (about AED 191 per 100 cm², against about AED 211 for the 15″ and about AED 218 for the 18″). That is arithmetic on the table above, not a slogan. It is also why the 21″ is the size we point families to when they host.

Large: AED 4,590 to AED 8,435

The 23″ Dreadnought starts at AED 4,590. A 50 cm grate, about 1,960 cm², feeds ten to twelve, and this is the first size with a smoker chute. It is the size that holds a whole packer brisket without trimming it to fit, and it holds 125°C for eighteen hours.

The 25″ Emperor starts at AED 5,050. A 55 cm grate, about 2,380 cm², feeds twelve or more, smoker chute included. The jump from the 23″ is AED 460 for a noticeably larger grate.

The 27″ Enterprise starts at AED 8,435. A 59 cm grate, about 2,730 cm², feeds twenty or more. The step from the 25″ is the expensive one: AED 3,385 more, and about AED 309 per 100 cm², the highest of the range. It is the right grill if you regularly cook for a majlis of that size. It is the wrong grill if the big lunch happens twice a year. Delivery needs about 90 cm of clear access.

Across the six, price per 100 cm² of grate lands at about AED 191 (21″), 211 (15″), 212 (25″), 218 (18″), 234 (23″) and 309 (27″). Use it to see which step is buying area and which step is buying capacity you may not need. It ignores nothing that is already in the “from” price, because every standard glaze of a size costs the same and includes the same box.

What is included in the price

The box is the same idea at every size, and the price above is for all of it:

  • The triple-fired ceramic barbecue.
  • The stand. From the 18″ up that means side tables and wheels. The 15″ has a short stand and no side tables.
  • A dome-mounted thermometer.
  • The ceramic fire box and fire ring.
  • A stainless charcoal grate and a stainless cooking grate.
  • A smoker chute on the 23″, 25″ and 27″.

Charcoal is not in the box. Burnt-Carbon Coal is AED 150 for an 8 kg bag. What to look for on a Dubai shelf, and how to store the bag in UAE humidity, is in the hardwood lump charcoal guide. Accessories are separate, and they are priced further down.

The ceramic body — dome and base — carries a 25-year warranty against material defects. Parts that wear with use sit outside it; the warranty page lists them.

What actually changes the price

Four things, and only four:

  1. The size. That is the table. It is the whole of the difference between AED 1,500 and AED 8,435.
  2. Not the glaze. All seven standard colours are the same price.
  3. A kintsugi commission, if you want one. It is quoted, made to order in about three weeks, and it is not added as an option on the product page. Calligraphy is not available to order at the moment.
  4. Nothing for delivery of the grill. It does not appear as a line on a kamado order.

Prices are in UAE dirhams and include VAT where it applies. You pay the figure on the product page. We do not add a surcharge at checkout for the grill itself.

In-stock colours are delivered within the week. A glaze we do not have in stock is fired to order, about ten weeks — three passes through the kiln, and the product page tells you which applies before you buy. Lead time is not a discount and not a premium. It is a kiln schedule.

Delivery, and what accessories add

Every grill ships free to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah, with assembly arranged. We book a slot with you after you pay. Accessories ride along free with any grill. On their own they ship free from AED 500, and a flat AED 35 below that. The cart shows it before you pay.

The grill price is not the whole first year if you add tools. These are the prices on the accessories page, not a bundle we insist on:

Extra Price Fits
Chimney starter AED 150 Any size
Hot smoker box AED 120 Any size
Burnt-Carbon Coal, 8 kg AED 150 a bag Any size
Pizza stone AED 150 / 200 / 225 21″ / 23″ / 27″
Cast-iron grate AED 450 / 500 / 550 / 600 18″ / 21″ / 23″ / 25″
Rotisserie AED 600 / 750 / 850 / 950 18″ / 21″ / 23″ / 25″

A 21″ with a chimney starter and one bag of coal is AED 3,300 + 150 + 150 = AED 3,600 before any other tool. The cast-iron grate for that size is another AED 500. The rotisserie for it is another AED 750. Add only the ones you will use. A rotisserie is a lot of money if you will not spin anything on it. How long an 8 kg bag lasts depends on the size of the firebox and how often you cook; the charcoal guide covers what to burn, and what not to. The pizza stone is the extra for kamado pizza: the setup, the temperature and the method are in how to cook pizza on a kamado grill.

Divide & Conquer, the multi-level system, runs from AED 650 on the 15″ to AED 1,050 on the 27″. It is the right extra if you want a hot zone and a cool zone at once. It is not required to cook.

Why are kamado grills so expensive?

The price is the ceramic.

  • It is heavy. 37 kg at the small end, 150 kg at the 27″. That mass is the wall thickness that holds heat. It is also why the grill is delivered to you rather than collected.
  • It is fired three times. Thick ceramic takes kiln time, and a glaze that is not in stock waits for the next firing — about ten weeks, not a warehouse pick.
  • The warranty is long. Twenty-five years on the dome and the base, against material defects, has to be a real promise. Wear parts are excluded and listed, so the years mean the ceramic, not the gasket.

You are paying for a thick ceramic body that grills, smokes, roasts and bakes under one dome, and for someone in Dubai who will still be here if the ceramic is at fault. You are not paying a different price for a different colour.

Are kamado grills worth it?

Worth it is a cooking question, not a badge question.

If you cook outdoors on ordinary weeks, one kamado replaces a grill, a smoker and a pizza oven. Pizza on a kamado is that last job: stone, deflector, dome past 350°C. It holds a low temperature for a long cook — the 23″ holds 125°C for eighteen hours — and it sears when you open the vents. The ceramic body is covered for 25 years against material defects. That is the case for spending AED 1,500 to AED 8,435.

If the fire is a twice-a-year event, the honest move is the smaller size you will actually light, or waiting. The size guide is written to talk you out of the grill that only fits the party you throw once. Match the grate to the meal you cook most weeks, then pay that row. The 27″ is worth AED 8,435 when you feed twenty. It is not worth it when you feed four.

How to pay less, without buying the wrong grill

  • Buy the size you will use. The AED 700 from the 18″ to the 21″ buys a lot of grate. The AED 3,385 from the 25″ to the 27″ buys capacity. Know which one you are paying for.
  • Skip the accessories you will not use. The chimney starter is AED 150 and earns its place. The rotisserie does not, unless you will use it.
  • Do not pay extra for a colour. You will not. All seven glazes match.
  • Check stock before you count the weeks. An in-stock glaze arrives within the week. A made-to-order glaze is about ten weeks. The price is the same either way.
  • Budget the full figure. We do not offer instalments. Checkout is card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, for the AED amount on the page, with VAT included where it applies.

The number to budget

For a Burnt Carbon kamado in the UAE, budget AED 1,500 to AED 8,435 for the grill itself, depending on size, plus only the accessories you will use, and nothing for delivery. The 21″ at AED 3,300 is the family size, and the lowest price per square centimetre of grate we make.

Questions people ask

How much is a kamado grill in the UAE?

A Burnt Carbon ceramic kamado starts at AED 1,500 for the 15″ Picnic and AED 8,435 for the 27″ Enterprise. The 21″ family size starts at AED 3,300. All seven glazes are the same price. Delivery is free to all seven emirates.

Why are kamado grills so expensive?

The body is thick ceramic, triple-fired, and heavy — our sizes weigh 37 kg to 150 kg. Glazes that are not in stock are fired to order, about ten weeks, and the ceramic body carries a 25-year warranty against material defects. That weight, kiln time and warranty are what the price is paying for.

Are kamado grills worth it?

One ceramic kamado grills, smokes, roasts and bakes, and the ceramic body is warranted for 25 years against material defects. If you cook outdoors often, that is the case for it. If you only light a fire a couple of times a year, a smaller size — or not buying one yet — is the honest answer. Our size guide is there to talk you out of the grill you will not use.

Do the seven glaze colours cost different amounts?

No. Olive Green, Carbon Black, Cobalt Blue, Pearl White, Signal Red, Desert Orange and Mustard Yellow are the same price on a given size. The price changes with the size, not the colour.

Does delivery cost extra?

Not on a grill. Every kamado ships free to all seven emirates, with assembly arranged. Accessories on their own ship free from AED 500, and cost a flat AED 35 below that. You see the delivery line in the cart before you pay.

How much does a Burnt Carbon kamado weigh?

The 15″ is 37 kg, the 18″ is 65 kg, the 21″ is 83.5 kg, the 23″ is 91.5 kg, the 25″ is 120 kg and the 27″ is 150 kg. From the 18″ up the grill rolls on its cart once it is set up. Delivery is arranged with the order, so you are not collecting it yourself.

Can I pay for a kamado in instalments?

Not at the moment. Checkout is the full AED price through Ziina — card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Prices are in dirhams and include VAT where it applies.

What is the difference between a standard glaze, kintsugi and Diwani calligraphy?

The seven standard glazes are the grills you buy on the product pages, all at the starting price for that size. Gold kintsugi is a separate commission in 99% pure gold, made to order in about three weeks — it is not a checkout option, so ask us for a quote. Diwani calligraphy is currently unavailable.
