Choosing the Right Primo for Your Outdoor Kitchen

Choosing the Right Primo for Your Outdoor Kitchen

If you are considering a ceramic grill for your garden or outdoor kitchen project, one of the biggest decisions is choosing the right size and layout for your space. Recently, one of our customers provided the perfect real-life example of why this is so important.

Starting with the Primo XL

The customer originally ordered a Primo XL for the corner section of his beautiful outdoor kitchen. The Primo XL is one of our most popular grills and for good reason. It offers incredible versatility, generous cooking space and all the benefits of Primo’s unique patented oval design.
For many customers, the XL is the perfect choice for family cooking, entertaining and outdoor kitchen installations.

Then came some exciting news…

The Arrival of the Primo XXL in the UK

Just as the customer was considering his options, the very first Primo XXL arrived into the UK.
After seeing the scale and impact of the XXL, he decided to upgrade — becoming the first customer in the UK to own a Primo XXL.

The transformation was immediate.

The Primo XXL now perfectly complements the proportions of the outdoor kitchen, creating a true focal point and statement feature within the design. Most importantly, the customer is absolutely delighted with the decision.

Why Consider a Primo Ceramic Grill?

When customers start researching ceramic grills, they often discover there are many options available on the market.

What makes Primo different is its patented oval shape.

Unlike traditional round ceramic grills, Primo’s oval design offers:

• true two-zone cooking,
• greater cooking flexibility,
• more usable cooking space,
• and excellent suitability for outdoor kitchen installations.

This means you can comfortably cook direct and indirect at the same time — perfect for reverse searing, low and slow cooking, roasting, baking and entertaining. The oval shape also works beautifully within outdoor kitchens, particularly when integrated into larger premium installations.

Is Bigger Always Better?

Not at all.

This customer’s experience was simply about finding the right proportions for his particular outdoor kitchen design.

The Primo LG and XL remain incredibly popular models and are fantastic choices for many gardens, patios and outdoor kitchens.

However, for larger outdoor kitchen projects or customers wanting maximum cooking area and visual impact, the Primo XXL offers something truly special.

Final Thoughts

Choosing a ceramic grill is not simply about cooking area — it is also about how the grill works within your outdoor living space.

This customer’s journey from the Primo XL to the Primo XXL perfectly demonstrates how the right grill can completely transform the overall feel of an outdoor kitchen.

And for this customer, becoming the very first owner of a Primo XXL in the UK made the upgrade even more memorable.
