Calling all Chefs- name me this barbeque
I have seen various version of this little barbeque in several Asian restaurants, one in Chicago that cooked the most amazing alligator chop another in Philadelphia that seared various fishes and meats. The video below is a Michelin star restaurant using the grill to char peppers. The heat produced is something like 1,000 degrees to quickly sear the meat. I would call it a Hibachi but I think it goes by a different name?
Gratuitous salivation video also showing the little grill. |

The little grill is a Konro, you use a special kind of charcoal with it, binchotan
Konro Binchotan I just picked one up as part of a kickstarter campaign The Yak grill

usually little skewers of chicken or whatever with a sauce like that is yakitori.
Looks like I was too slow.

You can do yakitori on a weber by simply doubling up some aluminum foil and putting a strip across the front and back of your grate, leaving a 4-6" space between the two (this prevents the exposed skewer ends from burning).
I didn't have any trouble getting the weber hot enough for yakitori, though i imagine a real Konro grill would be easier to work with.

Just for fun, here's some I made a while back. The first tray is from a chicken I butchered to make Tare (yakitori glaze) with the carcass.

Another way to replicate the Konro, if you have a charcoal grill...
It just takes some bricks, and aluminum foil https://www.seriouseats.com/2019/07/for-the-easiest-al-pastor-at-home-put-a-skewer-in-it.html

Interesting...
I have a Propane WOK burner which I put a Mongolian type anodized aluminum concave griddle on. I use it to quickly sear Skirt Steak... You can guess where I bought the griddle for $3. People buy them don't really use them and dump them..they need high heat which the regular stove can't provide and limited cooking space.

So maybe I need to ask is the grill what creates the high heat or the charcoal? I have a propane and a charcoal gill, a lodge cast iron hibachi and a small single grate hibachi. Can I mimic a Konro with my lodge or single hibachi using the charcial?

And buy some binchotan it burns hotter than the charcoal you get from your local market
