Micro Tandor/BBQ/Pizza Oven

[bigchef]

I was pitching one of several culinary inventions at a well known kitchen recently (sorry, no spoilers) and one of the concepts was that of a table top micro tandor/pizza oven/BBQ/smoker. They broke into laughter and pointed behind me and low and behold....there it was! Almost the exact same design as mine! Anyone know the brand I'm talking about? Its oblong with a hinged lid, temperature gauge on top with smoke control. You place the wood inside and there is a grill top and a removable stone plate (for pizza and breads). Anyone know what this thing was? I may have to contact them again and ask.

Well, how much is your combo tandoor/pizza/smoker?

[JadeShing]

Yes, now you've got me all interested! If its something new and cool I'd really like to know about it. (photos maybe?

... Its oblong with a hinged lid, temperature gauge on top with smoke control. ...

Like the second one down on this page? The Primo Oval Junior.?

Primo Grills

That looks a lot like it. The one I saw was here in the uk though and smaller. But the general design and shape is very similar.

Big Green Egg makes a Mini Egg, sounds lots like what you describe:

Aftermarket parts include raised cooking grids, baking stones, cast iron grates, and so on.

YAY! The Big Green Egg! You found it! You win a cookie! Thanks everyone! What a wealth of knowledge this forum has. I know I can always count on someone having the answer here. :-)
