Most amazing BBQ ever!

This BBQ is the best one I've ever owned! Will never go back to gas again! Food comes out delicious every time, no flare ups and this Keg holds temperature amazingly well. Endless hours of coolio f with no reloading of charcoal! A must for all BBQ lovers!

Not the Broil King Keg 4000

Bought in Nov 2022 to replace a 9 year old BKK 4000. The new Keg does not have as tight of seal around the bottom vent, and leaks a fair amount more that the 4000. The vent/ash drawer is more easier to remove the ashes than the 4000.

Not an amazing barbeque

Hello, I was hoping to have a special grill that could give me the joy of making a barbecue. The problems are design and quality. If you put too much coal, it ignites hard because the bottom holes for air are few and when you put the coal it clogs, you have to place it carefully piece by piece. The ash tray, if you do not put an aluminum foil on it, burns and destroys quickly. The cover gasket will not last long, in less than a year it looks bad. For the money I paid, I could have a traditional brick grill that never fails. Don't get me wrong, you can make a good steak but it takes a long time and gets ridiculous when you have 10 guests. Even a gypsy grill does a better job. I'm honestly sorry I can't write a good review ... I have over 30 years of experience making grills.

Simply amazing!

I bought this late summer and could not be happier with my purchase. Having years of experience cooking on a kettle I had always wanted a kamado style for the ease of use and insulation (living in Canada, it's necessary). Since buying the Keg I have made so many wonderful meals and temperature management has been a breeze. Winter cooking has been so easy to get the Keg to temperature and hold… which had always been a struggle on the un-insulated kettle, to the point, I would not smoke anything below -10c. I did a pork butt at -22c with no problem at all. I did a lot of research between other brands and models on the market and made the easy decision on the keg: it's light weight, robust and easily moved. Well insulated and cool to the touch. Side shelves included. Second rack that swings out of the way. Great BK warranty, and all in the price point is great bang for the buck. Looking forward to years of delicious Keg cooked meals :)

Keg temp too high. not controlable

I have had a Big Steel Keg for 13 years and really like it. it has some rust on outside and I decided to purchase a New Broil King Keg 5000. the damper on the bottom sucks air and you can not control the temp. from start up with top on 1 and bottom on 1/2 index the temp is 450. Not happy.

Great quality

First time with a kamado style cooker not the first time with a Broil King bbq. Great value for the price and excellent quality. Won't hesitate to buy another Broil King product.

Bursting with flavour!

About 6 months ago, I bought a Broil King Keg 5000. Initially, I thought I'd only use it for slow cooking stuff occasionally but I basically use it for EVERYTHING now. The way that the Keg holds the juices from the meat in really means that the taste is just on a different level. Some of my favourites are brisket (as shown in the photo), baby back ribs, beef ribs, Korean-style BBQ dishes, and even burgers. All unbelievably delicious. And the upper rack is great for separating things a bit from the flames. All in all, I'm extremely satisfied. Great product.

Keg + Brisket = Delicious

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

This item leaves our warehouse within 1-3 Business Days

30-Day Returns

Return all new, unused, and unassembled items in their original packaging, and we'll give you a full refund minus the cost of the original AND return shipping.
