Our Story
There is magic in cooking outdoors. Flavors become deeper, aromas richer, and
casual meals feel more like celebrations. At Kalamazoo, we are fiercely passionate
about the many joys and boundless possibilities of outdoor cooking and entertaining.
This is the fuel that propels us. We have one purpose — to create the products at the
heart of the most beautiful and capable outdoor kitchens in the world.
Grills were once considered a simple apparatus for cooking over a hot flame, and
outdoor kitchens were little more than a grill, a countertop and a sink. Kalamazoo
has led the transformation from these humble beginnings, pioneering numerous
innovations and advancements. Our grills are the most versatile in the industry,
and the rest of our expansive appliance and cabinetry collection elevates the
once-simple outdoor kitchen to become your favorite living space.

Built on Innovation
Our reputation is built on innovation. More than 20 years ago, Kalamazoo
introduced the world to the first grill able to cook with gas, wood and charcoal.
Four product generations later, we are proud to say the Kalamazoo Hybrid Fire Grill
is the best and most versatile gas grill on the planet. Its cooking prowess is unrivaled.
Other grills have come along that offer similar features at face value, but there will
always be only one Kalamazoo.
This same spirit of innovation that brought the Hybrid Fire Grill to life has inspired a
number of unprecedented industry achievements by Kalamazoo.

Exceptional Craftsmanship
Quality can’t be rushed. It is a belief we have held since our inception as a custom
sheet metal fabrication shop more than 100 years ago. Our products are still builtto-order, one kitchen at a time, by artisans who have spent a lifetime honing their
craft. These master craftspeople form, weld and finish every piece of stainless steel
by hand in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Our foundry, just a few hours away, casts our
robust bronze grill burners in small batches to maintain the highest quality. Before
shipping, we test fire and triple inspect our products as part of our stringent quality
control process. Each grill bears the signatures of the people who built it — which is
a great source of pride for our artisans.
Our unwavering commitment to hand-crafted production sets our collection apart
from the rest. When you choose Kalamazoo for your home, you are investing in fine
pieces of American craftsmanship.
“I deeply appreciate the extra effort and masterly skill it takes to
make your products so superb.”

Designed for (and by) the
Outdoor Cooking Enthusiast
The man at the helm of Kalamazoo’s research and development team is Russ Faulk,
our chief designer and grillmaster. The fact that he holds both grilling and design
roles is not a coincidence. His immense knowledge, skill and passion for outdoor
cooking are channeled into every one of our products. Russ’ uncompromising vision
has led him to create the most innovative, high-performance products in the industry.
Our mission may be ambitious, but it is clear — to create the products at the
heart of the best outdoor kitchens in the world. That doesn’t mean the fanciest or
most luxurious products. It doesn’t mean the biggest list of features. It means real
performance and versatility, with design and engineering to endure the test of time.
“In the BBQ world there is one man that I trust for his expert
advice and grillmaster skills.”
