The Oval Junior brings Primo's oval two-zone design to a compact size that fits smaller patios, balconies, and everyday cooking. You still get direct and indirect cooking on one grill, and the ceramic body holds a steady temperature whether you're smoking, roasting, baking, or searing.
Why it stands out
-
Two-zone oval design: Direct and indirect cooking at the same time, without constantly rearranging the fire.
-
Made in the USA: Primo has built its ceramic grills in Georgia since 1996.
-
Premium ceramic body: Retains heat and moisture, with a scratch-resistant, lead-free porcelain glaze.
-
Wide temperature range: From about 151°F for smoking up to 850°F+ for searing.
-
Split, reversible stainless steel grates: Flip them to switch between flat and ribbed grilling surfaces.
-
Weather-ready venting: A 6-position cast aluminum chimney cap with a rain hood, plus a 5-position stainless steel lower draft door, gives you fine control over airflow.
-
Easy to use: A lift-and-lock hinge, cool-touch handle, and soft-close felt gasket.
