Kaginushi Konro Small Yakitori Grill

The Japanese word “konro” indicates any heat source used for cooking. A konro barbecue is a special kind of Japanese grill that is generally long and narrow enough that the yakitori skewers can rest on the walls of the box and not fall into the coals below. There are also wider versions to accommodate larger pieces of meat, like a ribeye steak.

Around here barbecue season means pulling out the konro grill and doing up some yakitori and other treats. This little guy is meant for 2-3 people!
