A kamado is a traditional Japanese wood- or charcoal-fueled cook stove, its precursor brought to Japan by Yayoi-period immigrants from the Korean peninsula. The name is the Japanese word for stove or cooking range, literally meaning a place for the cauldron. A movable version called the mushikamado drew the attention of Americans after the Second World War, and the kamado is now sold in the United States as a kamado-style cooker or barbecue grill.
