Primo Ceramic Grill with oval design and premium accessories, made in the USA for serious backyard BBQ and competition use

The Last Ceramic Grill You’ll Ever Need—Made Right Here in the USA

When it comes to ceramic grills that deliver on performance, craftsmanship, and versatility, few brands match up to Primo. Unlike most other ceramic grills on the market today, Primo Ceramic Grills are proudly made in the USA. From the unique oval design to durable construction, Primo is built to satisfy both backyard enthusiasts and serious pitmasters.

Made in the USA: Built for Quality

Primo Ceramic Grills are the only major ceramic grills crafted entirely in the United States—right in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. This ensures better material sourcing, tighter quality control, and support for American manufacturing jobs.

Why USA Manufacturing Matters:

  • Tighter quality control for consistency and durability
  • High-end ceramic materials designed for performance
  • Supports American jobs and supply chains

The Oval Design Advantage

What truly makes Primo different? It’s the only ceramic grill with a patented oval design. Compared to round ceramic grills like the Big Green Egg or Kamado Joe, Primo’s oval shape changes the game.

  • True Two-Zone Cooking: Easily separate your heat zones for simultaneous direct and indirect cooking
  • More Usable Cooking Space: Cook large meals more efficiently with the expanded oval layout
  • Ultimate Versatility: Grill, smoke, bake, roast, or sear—all with one grill configuration

Built to Last: Construction and Performance

Primo Ceramic Grills are engineered to handle high heat, unpredictable weather, and years of heavy use. Key construction benefits include:

  • Heavy-duty hinges and top-quality gasket for consistent performance
  • Weather-resistant glaze protects against cracking and chipping
  • Efficient fuel consumption saves you money on charcoal
  • One grill that does it all—no need to invest in separate smokers or ovens
