While most people associate Kamado cooking with savory classics, it’s also a powerhouse for desserts.

With Vessils, you can turn your next cookout into a true celebration of chocolate BBQ sweets.

The Secret to Perfect Grill Brownies

Why Use a Kamado for Baked Dessert Kamado Recipes?

The ceramic construction of a Vessils Kamado grill offers exceptional heat retention and even cooking, making it ideal for baking. The indirect heat method mimics an oven, but with the added bonus of gentle smoke and a hint of char. This environment is perfect for grill brownies-giving you crisp edges and a fudgy center every time.

Setting Up Your Grill

  • Indirect Heat is Key: Set up your Vessils Kamado for two-zone indirect cooking. This means placing your charcoal on one side and your cast iron skillet or baking pan on the other, away from direct flames. This setup prevents scorching and ensures even baking.

  • Temperature Control: Preheat your grill to 325–350°F. Use a grill-safe thermometer to monitor the temperature for consistent results.

Recipe: Baked Chocolate Brownies on a Kamado Grill

Ingredients:

  • 4 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ tsp kosher salt

  • ¼ tsp baking powder

  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chunks

  • Optional: nuts, marshmallows, or graham crackers for a s’mores twist

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Grill: Set your Vessils Kamado for indirect heat and preheat to 350°F.

  2. Mix the Batter: In a bowl, combine melted chocolate and butter, then add sugar and vanilla. Beat in eggs one at a time. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, salt, and baking powder, then fold into the wet mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and any optional add-ins.

  3. Grease the Pan: Use a cast iron skillet or grill-safe baking pan, greased well to prevent sticking.

  4. Bake: Pour the batter into the pan and place it on the indirect side of the grill. Close the lid and bake for 35–45 minutes, rotating halfway through. Check for doneness with a skewer-look for moist crumbs.

  5. Finish: Let brownies cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm, topped with ice cream or fresh berries for an extra treat.

Tips for Chocolate BBQ Sweets Success

  • Use a Food Thermometer: Always check internal temperatures for food safety, especially when baking outdoors. For more on grilling safety, see the USDA’s grilling food safety guide.

  • Experiment with Flavors: Add a handful of nuts, swirl in caramel, or sprinkle sea salt on top before baking for gourmet results.

  • Clean Your Grill: A clean grill ensures no off-flavors. For more tips, check out the Vessils user manual hub for maintenance guides and accessories.
