No Other Grill Cooks Like a Kalamazoo
No wonder Kalamazoo grills inspire such a loyal following. Over 115 BTUs per square inch of
primary cooking power. The ability to cook with any combination of charcoal, wood and gas.
Real hassle-free cleaning. Custom cooking surfaces. The advantages are unrivaled.
Hybrid Cooking with Charcoal, Wood and Gas Changing fuels is as
easy as opening the hybrid grilling drawer. Our powerful gas burners are
located below the hybrid drawer system. Use the burners alone to cook
with gas, or place wood or charcoal in the drawer. The gas burners can
be used to quickly and conveniently start a wood or charcoal fi re, or to
maintain the heat for longer cooking sessions.
Ultimate Versatility Grilling, searing, roasting, smoking, wok cooking,
r
otisserie and even baking. The power and versatility of Kalamazoo grills
enable home chefs to passionately pursue every cooking style they desire, on a grill that makes it look effortless.
Custom Cooking Surfaces Homeowners can select their ideal combina-
tion of cooking surface patter
There is even a solid surface available for teppanyaki-style cooking. For
even further personalization, initials, logos and other artwork can be cut
into the surface. See page 11 for more information.

Kalamazoo Built-In Grills
Built-In Grills with Stainless Steel Cabinets
Kalamazoo is the only manufacturer to offer built-in grills that include their
own stainless steel cabinets as a standar
Cooking Concept at the core of every grill we make utilizes a deep cookbox that extends far below the grilling surface for improved heat dynamics
and a broader range of outdoor cooking techniques. And, the hassle-free
cleaning system funnels down to a large and deep pan conveniently accessed within the cabinet. A Kalamazoo reaches all the way down to the
patio and stands on its own adjustable leveling legs for easy installation.
Each Kalamazoo is built to last and covered by a lifetime warranty. We build
the grills around a fully-welded stainless steel frame, and use much heavierguage stainless steel than our rivals, so much, in fact, that a Kalamazoo
900HB weighs-in at over 500 pounds.

Wok-Ready Cooktops
Why settle for a run-of-the-mill side burner when you can have a
32,000 BTU wok-ready cooktop in your outdoor kitchen. Our ingenious
design uses four concentric rings of fi re. To simmer sauces and glazes
at low temperatures, the two inner rings provide controlled heat. Turn the
burner up to high and all four rings kick in for rapid boiling or other hightemperature work.
Kalamazoo cooktops are available for built-in installations (photo at left)
or mounted in a convenient storage cabinet.
