Netherlands
The Bastard is the Netherlands' best-known kamado brand, born from two brothers' love of live-fire cooking and clean design.
Known for: ceramic kamado charcoal grills in a range of sizes and special editions. Founded by Jeroen and Martijn Wesselink — originally under the name 200° Fahrenheit — The Bastard quickly became the market-leading kamado in the Netherlands and now sells in more than 40 countries.
Designed in the Netherlands and manufactured in China, its kamados use thick cordierite ceramic that holds heat exceptionally well and withstands very high temperatures, backed by a lifetime warranty on the ceramic. Enthusiasts love the combination of premium quality and a comparatively accessible price — a compelling alternative for grillers who want a ceramic cooker rather than a gas or kettle Weber.
