Secure Your Stand Alone Cooker!

CAUTION! DO NOT USE THE STAND ALONE COOKER WITHOUT HAVING IT PROPERLY SECURED TO A SURFACE!

The stand alone cooker is designed to be mounted and bolted to our custom cooker base, or to a static surface before use. DO NOT use the shipping pallet as a surface. The wood will not support the cooker and over a short period of time, the cooker will loosen from the wood, creating a tipping hazard.

How to Remove Base For Outdoor Kitchen Installation

Your Goldens’ Cast Iron Cooker will look amazing in your new outdoor kitchen! You can utilize the cooker base mount and install it as is. Or, if you want a more permanent solution, meaning that you secure and bolt the cooker directly to your outdoor kitchen surface, there are a few steps to take for base removal.

You will see a center hole at the bottom of the fire box. The threaded center hole size, for firebox removal, takes a 1/2-13 threaded eye bolt (included with stand alone cooker only). The OD is roughly 1/2″ and there are 13 threads per inch (TPI). If you have a table or handle cart, visit your hardware store and purchase a 1/2-13″ standard eye bolt. Screw it into the hole and carefully lift it out. You will need more than one person for this task.

CAUTION! The cooker and cart is potentially top heavy, once the firebox is removed, so please keep it on a level surface and don’t attempt to flip the lid open quickly, or move the cart around until the firebox is back in position. Please keep children and animals away from the cooker as you remove the fire box.

Mounting your cooker to an outdoor kitchen: If you are mounting your cooker to an outdoor kitchen counter, remove the firebox and you will see four bolts if it is mounted to a cart. Remove the bolts and lift the cooker from the cart. We advise that you have two or more people to assist.

If you purchased a stand alone cooker, meaning with no cart, there will be four holes for mounting. Make sure you have properly measured for bolts that are securely protruding from the mounting surface of your outdoor kitchen. NEVER place your stand alone cooker on a surface without mounting. It could tip and cause damage and injury. You must securely mount the cooker to a surface.

DO NOT set it and forget it. We implore you to bolt it securely in place for safety. Once bolted in, then you can place the firebox back into position. See the notch at the 12 o’clock position in this photo? There is a gap at the bottom of the fire box, so when you put it back in place, it will sit properly within the bottom part of the cooker. You may need to rotate it into position. Once in position, and the fire box is back in place, you can add your searing plate, grates, etc. That’s it!

Why cast iron over ceramic?

Why is our cast iron kamado superior to ceramic? Read on.

Cooking with cast iron offers advantages over alternative ceramic kamados, such as increased durability and less moving parts. Additionally, cast iron’s radiant and thermal properties provide even heating and precise temperature control.

You may have noticed that ceramic kamados are “sold out” these days. Most import their ceramic from China and or Mexico, and that has proven difficult as foreign supply chains have been disrupted recently.

So why wait for “out of stock” ceramic kamados because fragile, foreign made ceramic parts are hard to come by these days? Shop our quality, genuine, American made Goldens’ Cast Iron kamados. They’re always in stock, because they’re built in America with materials made in America. Cookers come fully assembled and delivered right to your backyard, ready to grill!
