We have a larger Weber kettle. Even when using a basket it s too big for just two of us when doing burgers or steaks etc.

Probably looking at a 15 . Good value as opposed to cheap. Due to great heat retention you seem to use less charcoal. I also want to get my smoking game on. So a few accessories like a deflector plate would be good.

Im just asking for recommendations from experience. No need for Green Egg or a Joe.

I cant seem to look past the Kamado King which comes with all the accessories. Would a 13” be enough? Largest food i’d probably do is a tandoori whole chicken.

Also only needs to be able to sit on a tabletop.

Cheers and beers!

In my opinion the absolute best accessory for a Kamado is a rotisserie. The airtightness of a Kamado allows you to rotisserie cook directly over the coals, which produces fantastic flavour without the massive flare-ups you'd get from a different style of BBQ. Loin of pork and whole chickens cooked this way are both delicious.

I'm not sure what the smallest size is that supports a rotisserie, but that's what I'd be looking for.
