Why Longhorn?
Longhorn started because the BBQs available in NZ were either cheap imports that rusted after one summer, or premium brands with eye-watering price tags. We wanted stainless steel construction, real features (infrared rotisserie burners, LED-lit controls, integrated storage), and AGA gas safety certification — at a price that made sense for Kiwi families who actually use their BBQ year-round.
The range has grown beyond gas grills. Longhorn wood-fired pizza ovens reach up to 400°C for authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas. Kamado ceramic grills seal in moisture for slow smoking and roasting. Hibachi grills bring traditional Japanese charcoal cooking to your table. From a 5 Burner weeknight grill to a full outdoor kitchen, there's a Longhorn for how you cook.

5 years ownership of Longhorn BBQ
Awesome BBQ Zero rust. Zero maintainance. Sturdy. Pretty easy to set up. Great cover. (ONLY the cover has really started to disintergrate now... but 5 years! Cannot complain) Outside under house eves, in Northland 24/7 . (Northland has 2,500mm to 3,500mm of rain per year!) Auto light still works. Temp gauge still works. All burners still work. and heat reflectors have not rusted out. Everything still works. The BIG awesome for ME is the 240v rotisserie and the Longhorns rear burner. I p repare the meat and rotisser with the fat on, (Self basting. SEE DISCLAIMER), from multiply ranges of meat cuts you get amazing results. Catering for the rare meat lovers to the rotisserie flavoured outer layers. Beautiful. I love the heat the 6 burner produces, this is not broil type BBQ. Cons: NOT all the Knobs are in order with the burners. The manufacturers labelling wears and it becomes a guessing game. :) DISCLAIMER: I have changed the plate setup. I have a cast iron deep dish (>50mm) over the centre 2 burners. where I roast vegetables under the rotisserie meat. I can also use this to sear meat. Use as a (shallow/deep) fryer etc. This changes the rotisserie's ease of use and the amount of fat that will be required to be drained via the BBQ. The Longhorn BBQ is a well manufactured Stainless Steel BBQ
Excellent thermometer
Easy to use , accurate and fast. I wish we had one years ago!
Stainless steel grid

King of low'n'slow
This BBQ has completely exceeded my expectations. Temperature control is exceptional once it locks in at 110-120°C for a low and slow cook, it holds there rock solid with no babysitting required. I've already put it through its paces with a couple of pork shoulders and pull-apart lamb legs, and the results have been outstanding every time. The pork pulls apart perfectly, unbelievably juicy, and the lamb is just moist and full of flavour. Exactly what you want from a proper low and slow cook. The practical features are a real bonus too. The side tables are genuinely useful, not just an afterthought, and the fact that it comes with a cover is a nice touch. It's easy to set up and simple to move around, which matters when you're working with a cooker this size. After cooking on this I can say with confidence I won't be buying a pellet grill. This does everything I need and does it better. Highly recommended for anyone serious about low and slow.
Mr

Great bbq! Looks amazing heats up fast. Assembly took a bit extra effort but nothing difficult. Come with a great quality cover!
Such a good investment
I've put my Kamado Longhorn 21" through a serious test, and it absolutely delivered. I smoked a 4kg brisket, two whole chickens, a couple of racks of ribs, lamb shoulder, and pork shoulder everything came out beautifully tender with that perfect smoky flavor. The temperature control on this grill is rock solid, and it held steady for long cooks without any fuss. I also used the halfmoon cast iron grid for steaks and kebabs, and the sear I got was next level. Proper crust, juicy inside exactly what you want from cast iron over charcoal. This grill has quickly become the center piece of my outdoor cooking. Whether its low-and-slow or hot-and-fast, the Longhorn handles it all effortlessly. If you're looking for a versatile, reliable smoker and grill combo, this one is worth every cent. Unfortunately photos was too big to upload.
