The Kasai Long Konro Skewer Edition is a charcoal hibachi-style grill designed and manufactured in the UK for professional restaurant use. Built from stainless steel and incorporating a natural clay lining, it is intended for operators who want to bring authentic Japanese robata-style charcoal cookery to their kitchen or dining space — whether as part of a live cooking station or a back-of-house grill setup.
The clay construction is central to how this grill performs. Rather than simply containing heat, the material reflects it back into the cooking zone, which means charcoal burns more efficiently and for longer than it would in a conventional metal grill. In practical terms, this reduces how often fuel needs to be topped up or replaced during service — useful when demand is continuous and kitchen teams have little time to manage the fire. The grill reaches the high temperatures needed to sear proteins quickly and develop colour without imparting unwanted flavours from the grill itself.
The skewer edition comes with twelve stainless steel-handled skewers that sit across the grill frame and rotate through 360 degrees without lifting. This makes it straightforward to cook evenly across both sides of the food — spiedini, yakitori, vegetable skewers and similar preparations — without the interruption of manual turning. Key operational points include:
- Full 360-degree skewer rotation directly in the frame — no need to remove and flip
- Clay lining retains heat effectively, reducing charcoal consumption during service
- Stainless steel construction throughout the outer body for durability and cleaning
- Suited to grilling meat, fish, vegetables and finishing sous vide-cooked proteins
- Twelve skewers included as standard, ready for immediate use
This grill is a charcoal-burning unit, so ventilation is a non-negotiable installation consideration. It must be positioned beneath an appropriate extraction canopy that meets local Building Regulations and environmental health requirements — solid-fuel cooking appliances carry specific ventilation obligations that differ from gas or electric equipment. The grill has no mains connections, but its 18kg weight and 764mm width mean it needs a stable, heat-resistant surface with adequate clearance around the sides and rear. It is not suited to enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces.
This model is well suited to restaurant operations running yakitori menus, Japanese BBQ concepts, or any format where charcoal cooking is a visible part of the offer. It can comfortably service eight to twelve covers depending on the dishes being prepared. Operators running higher volumes or requiring continuous throughput across a full service may want to consider a larger or multi-unit setup — it is worth discussing your service model before committing to a single unit configuration.
If you are unsure whether this grill fits your kitchen layout, extraction setup, or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you place an order.
Frequently asked questions
What extraction setup does the Kasai Long Konro require in a commercial kitchen?
As a solid-fuel charcoal-burning appliance, this grill must be installed beneath a suitable extraction canopy designed to handle smoke and combustion byproducts — standard kitchen ventilation rated for gas or electric cooking is unlikely to be sufficient. You will need to confirm compliance with local Building Regulations and your environmental health officer's requirements before use. We would recommend speaking with your ventilation contractor early in the planning process.
Is this grill suitable for continuous service use throughout a full restaurant sitting?
The clay lining does help extend charcoal burn time compared to conventional grill construction, which reduces interruption during service. That said, for operations running continuous throughput across multiple sittings — or kitchens producing significant skewer volumes — it is worth discussing whether a single unit or a paired configuration better suits your service model.
Can this konro grill be used for cooking methods other than skewering?
Yes — while this edition is supplied with the 360-degree skewer rack, the grill bed itself is suited to other charcoal cooking techniques including finishing sous vide proteins, grilling whole fish, or cooking vegetables directly over the coals. Kasai also offer versions of the konro with searing grates, planchas, and robata-style configurations if your menu calls for a different primary cooking method.
