I posted this on a few forums last year and just updated it so I thought I'd post it here too. Hope you enjoy.
Below is a list that I have been compiling for a while now. The intention of this list is to provide basic contact information of custom pit builders, to anyone thinking of buying a heavy duty/handmade BBQ Pit, with a few exceptions. Feel free to suggest others not listed here. Thanks to all the guys that have sent new names to me. As of 3-16-2007 all of the links below are working.
Tips on using this list.
- For most of us buying a handmade BBQ pit is a big investment so take your time, do your homework and look at all of the products the different builders have to offer and what the various pits cost.
- Post questions on the forum about options (needed and wanted) to get some feedback from more experienced folks.
- Make a decision on a price limit.
- Consider which design makes the most sense for the way YOU will use the pit.
- Start with the builders closest to your home state to help save on shipping costs. Then study the products and prices, call and ask questions to determine which builder can give you what you want.
- Make a detailed specification list and send it to several builders for quotes. Get exact quotes in writing before any work starts.
- Don't let a builder talk you into or out of anything. Your spending the money not them.
- If your not comfortable with a builder try another one.

Kamado has moved to Mexico.
Cut and Pasted from their site.
"As of approximately October 25, all Kamado operations and personnel (administration, sales, customer service and manufacturing) will be based in Ensenada, Mexico. The Johnson family (Deborah, Richelle, Laura and Richard) and Bill Nichols, as well as our key factory workers, are all relocating to Ensenada.
In choosing Mexico, we will benefit from a centuries-old heritage of fine ceramic and tile work, a place where "hecho por mano" (made by hand) is a label of pride reflecting craftsmanship handed down from father to son. We look forward to manufacturing Kamado cookers and accessories that reflect this pride of craftsmanship. We think the cookers from our new facilities will not just equal, but will exceed in quality anything we’ve previously produced."
Here is the link about

you have to scroll down the page to Kamado on the Move.
Suggestions are always welcomed!
