FAQ
Why is the ceramic construction of Kamado grills so special?
Ceramic efficiently stores heat and distributes it evenly throughout the grill. This allows for precise cooking and ensures juicy, flavorful results. Ceramic also maintains a constant temperature for hours, making it ideal for slow cooking and smoking.
What is special about the Avantgarde’s design?
The Avantgarde combines high-quality materials with a sophisticated look – the satin-matte glaze, solid stainless steel frame, and optional heavy-duty bamboo side tables make it the highlight of any outdoor kitchen. Design meets function.
What distinguishes the Avantgarde from the Pro Classic?
Both models feature identical grill technology, but the Avantgarde offers additional design elements, LED grip lighting, and an even more robust finish. Ideal for those seeking uncompromising performance with an exclusive appearance.
How does a Kamado grill differ from a traditional charcoal grill?
Unlike conventional grills, the Kamado's ceramic construction offers superior heat retention and distribution. This results in more efficient charcoal consumption and enables versatile cooking methods such as grilling, baking, and smoking.
How long does it take to warm up the Avantgarde to operating temperature?
With high-quality charcoal, you can reach grill temperatures of 180–250°C in about 20 minutes. For pizza or high-temperature grilling, it can be heated to over 400°C.
Is the MONOLITH Avantgarde also suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. Despite its professional functionality, the grill is easy to operate. Temperature control is intuitive via the air intake at the top and bottom – completely electronic.
How big is the grill grate?
The stainless steel grill grate has a diameter of 44 cm – ideal for up to 8 people or several courses at the same time.
What can I prepare with the Avantgarde?
From steaks, ribs, pizza and pulled pork to bread, vegetables or wok dishes – the Avantgarde CLASSIC masters direct & indirect grilling, smoking, baking and much more.
How is the temperature regulated?
As with all Monolith grills, the air supply is at the bottom and the air regulator at the top – precise, reliable, and completely electronic.
How does smoking with the chip feeder work?
Using the side chip feeder, you can push wood chips or pellets directly into the embers without opening the lid. This keeps the temperature constant and the smoke flavor controllable.
What is the best way to clean the MONOLITH Avantgarde?
After grilling, simply remove the ash via the drawer and brush off the grate. At high temperatures, residues will burn off on their own—the ceramic practically cleans itself.
Is there a warranty for the MONOLITH Avantgarde?
Yes, Monolith offers a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
We offer a 15-year warranty on the ceramic, 5 years on metal parts, and 1 year on accessories.

Performance & Elegance - The Avantgarde in Action
Kamado vs. charcoal grill – quality that comes at a price:
Stores heat for up to 12 hours – ideal for long jobs like pulled pork
Must be reheated regularly – temperature drops quickly
Temperature range 70–400 °C – ideal for smoking, baking & grilling
Only direct grilling at high heat – smoking & baking hardly possible
Up to 50% less coal consumption – saves with every use
High consumption, especially during long sessions
First value ceramic housing with 2–3 cm wall thickness – stable & extremely durable
Thin sheet metal housing – often rusted through after a few years
Integrated deflector stone for perfect heat regulation
No possibility for indirect grilling without accessories
High-quality workmanship – lasts 15–20 years with proper care
Cheap construction – usually replaced after 3–5 years
Pizza in 3 minutes at 350 °C – almost like in a stone oven
Hardly possible – temperature drops too quickly
Less smoke and grease fires thanks to precise air supply
High risk of flame formation & uncontrolled burning
All-in-one: Grill, smoker, oven & wok – 4 appliances in one
Grill only – additional functions only with lots of accessories
Ceramic that thinks for itself – for constant heat & minimal coal
The MONOLITH works like a mini-stove with chimney effect :
Fresh air flows into the embers from below, while the hot air rises and exits the grill through a valve. This allows you to control the temperature like a dial – precisely from 70°C to 400°C.
The highlight:
The ceramic stores the heat for hours – with only 2 kg of charcoal, the MONOLITH maintains the temperature for up to 24 hours!
This saves fuel, gives you full control, and opens up all grilling possibilities: direct, indirect, smoking, baking, or even braising.
Your grill, your setup, your control
The Monolith Smart Grid System
With the modular Smart Grid System (SGS), you can adapt your Monolith Pro Classic to your grilling needs in seconds. Whether it's a spontaneous steak grill or a multi-hour smoke – you control grill zones, temperatures, and cooking methods on multiple levels. Precisely. Flexible. And adaptable at any time.
- Direct grilling: Full heat directly over the embers – ideal for steak, sausages & burgers
- Indirect grilling: Gentle cooking at constant heat – e.g. for roasts, fish or chicken
- Combination with cast iron plancha: grill marks & roasting aromas on one side, gentle heat on the other side
- Baking: Crispy pizza, tarte flambée or bread thanks to top/bottom heat like in a stone oven
- Braising & Cooking: Dutch oven on the deflector – for stews, goulash & co. with a fiery aroma
- Smoking: Smoke like the pros – with ChipFeeder without temperature loss by opening the lid
With the SGS you turn your Kamado not into a grill – but into an entire outdoor kitchen

- New frame : Revised construction for maximum stability and durability
- Perfect fit : Clamping ring seats and seals are precisely milled after firing – for a permanently tight, tight fit

Grilling has never been so easy!
Operating the Kamado grill is as simple as it is ingenious: Open the lid, let the air in – the temperature rises, let the air out – the heat drops. Thanks to the intelligent airflow, you can precisely control the temperature between 70 and 400°C – without any electricity or technology.
- Supply air regulator below:
Simply open or close the flap – this influences the oxygen flow to the embers - Exhaust valve above:
Regulates the heat in the cooking chamber – from Low & Slow to Pizza Boost - Lid thermometer:
Always in view – no app, no guesswork
Keeps what's hot sealed
The innovative fiberglass seal with stainless steel band ensures maximum heat and smoke control. No heat loss, no smoke loss—full efficiency with every grilling session.
Why this is important:
- Heat retention – No heat escaping – ideal for long jobs like brisket.
- Smoke-tight – Full smoke aroma stays in the grill, not in the air
- Durable & robust – stainless steel band permanently protects the seal against wear
A crucial detail – for consistent performance and perfect results.
ChipFeeder System – Smoking has never been so easy
Smoky flavor at the touch of a button: With the ChipFeeder, you can push smoking wood or pellets directly into the embers – without opening the lid or experiencing heat fluctuations. This keeps the temperature stable, and your meat gets just the right smoky flavor.
Here's how it works in 3 steps:
- Place smoke pellets or chips on the smoking rail
- Push the rail through the flap directly into the embers
- Press the slider, enjoy the aroma, close the lid
Ideal for pulled pork, fish, ribs, etc. – precise smoking at a professional level.
A grill that almost cleans itself
At temperatures over 400°C, grease and residues inside burn to fine dust. Remove the ash, wipe it away with a damp cloth, and you're done. The smooth ceramic retains its beauty forever.
- Self-cleaning through pyrolysis at high temperature
- Easy to clean thanks to dirt-repellent stainless steel strap
- Remove ash in seconds – simply remove the drawer and empty it
