Cooking outdoors is a truly immersive experience. When you cook outside, you bring the energy and beauty of nature into your food, harnessing the power and dynamism of every element to enhance the taste, flavor, and experience of your meals. Kalamazoo makes free-standing outdoor cooking equipment that honors this experience. The company’s grills are aesthetically stunning and functionally brilliant. Whether you’re trying to master an old classic or push your cooking game to new levels, Kalamazoo can help you execute everything perfectly, from pizza and roasted duck to burgers, steaks, and even apple pie for dessert.
Kalamazoo also offers the industry’s only true hybrid grill and can be used with gas, charcoal, or wood. Changing your grill’s fuel modifies the taste and profile of your food, allowing you to experiment with different combinations and levels of smokiness and flavor. Kalamazoo grills are not designed to be a seasonal cooking appliance or weekend indulgence; they’re designed to accommodate quality outdoor cooking all year-round. At Kalamazoo, there is a core belief that grilling is, and should always be, a limitless experience, and at Pirch, we couldn’t agree more.

Are Kalamazoo grills suitable for baking, roasting, and grilling?

Is the Kalamazoo outdoor cooking equipment easy to maintain and clean?
When it comes to cleaning your grill, Kalamazoo recommends starting by using a citrus-based or organic degreaser to remove everything that isn’t burnt on. Next, they recommend using powdered Bar Keepers Friend with a jersey knit rag. Be careful to follow the grain direction of the stainless steel to avoid scratches. With a little elbow grease, Bar Keepers Friend will remove most stains and discoloration. For real problem areas, a Scratch-B-Gone kit can be used to restore the factory finish. After these steps, rinse off all cleaners, wait for the grill to dry, and then apply stainless steel polish.
