New KUDU Grill Combines Fire Pit with Culinary Capability

KUDU Grills, an innovator in outdoor cooking equipment, is challenging the grill industry by focusing on “experiential engineering” versus traditional outdoor cooking methods.

KUDU GrillAccording to KUDU Inventor and Chief Customer Officer Stebin Horne, “Today’s consumers seek to maximize how they spend their time. They realize every moment counts, particularly when it comes to how they commune with friends and family. The KUDU system is engineered to make the most of the human experience through its dynamic versatility. With its dual functionality as a grill and vertical fire pit, our customers frequently comment on The KUDU being the centerpiece of their backyard events. The KUDU takes us back to a time when fire was the focal point for both social and culinary interaction. For thousands of years humans have been gathering around open fires for fellowship and to cook together. There is something inescapably primal about open fire cooking, it is engrained in who we are as humans,” says Horne.

The KUDU has its origins in South Africa, where early humans gathered in caves thousands of years ago to cook meat over fire for the very first time.

Quite a few years after that, Georgia boy Stebin Horne traveled to South Africa  to meet the family of the woman he’d fallen in love with. He quickly fell in love with South African culture.   The communal “braais”, where families and friends gathered regularly around an open flame to cook, eat, and socialize in an unhurried way, gave Stebin inspiration for The KUDU Grill.

The KUDU takes the guesswork out of open fire cooking for all grilling skill levels, from beginner to professional, by using a convenient elevation bar system. Users can quickly and easily adjust cooking temperatures by positioning grilling surfaces to various heights relative to the heat source, creating ultimate versatility. This multifunctional design allows for the cooking of multiple dishes at once in a variety of formats, from cast-iron seared to smoked and everything in between. After the meal, the KUDU converts into an efficient and beautiful fire pit with its patented fire rings feature.

The experiential cooking world is rapidly growing, and consumers are looking to replicate that experience at home. The KUDU is a residential-focused outdoor cooking product that makes open fire cooking a reality and creates a user experience that many are longing for.
