Ceramic grills might not sound like the ideal tool to get that perfect sear on your barbecued food, but that would only be because you haven't yet been introduced to the Pro Joe Grill by Komado Joe.
Featuring a distinct and luminously shiny stainless steel exterior, the Pro Joe Grill by Komado Joe boasts a larger cooking area (900 square inches) than any other ceramic grill on the market. On top of that, however, it also lays claim to a beastly 2-inch ceramic core wrapped in ceramic fiber insulation.
Not surprisingly, the Pro Joe Grill by Komado Joe recently snatched up the Vesta Award at HPB Expo 2011. For those barbecue lovers looking to get their hands on this epic cooking machine, however, it retails for the hefty starting price of $7995.
