What is a Hibachi?
The hibachi is small, stylish, Japanese grills made of porous ceramic that keeps the sides cool enough to
touch when cooking. These grills have been used for generations in Japan and were brought to the
States at the end of WWII where they are typically made of metal.
LittleFire has paired with Mikawa Corporation in Japan as the sole authorized importer to bring you the
authentic hibachi. Hand crafted outside of Nagoya, Japan, Mikawa has been providing these fine
hibachis to the Japanese population for decades.

Are they safe?
Yes!
The porous ceramic sides direct the heat where it should be, at sealing flavor into the food and not
radiating through the sides. Hibachis are often used table top with the family gathered round with little
worry about little fingers. The square base also means that the hibachi sits solidly and not precariously
on wobbly legs.
As with any grill, the hibachi must be used sensibly and with care. Although not as hot, the sides and
metal elements do get hot.
Are they easy to clean and store?
Yes!
After pouring out the used coals, brush out the inside with a soft brush or an old rag. Store in the
original box in a closet or on a shelf. The small size means that the hibachi will be out of your way until
you need it and easy to pack for that campground, festival, or park!
How long do they last?
Hibachis are often used for decades. They do not rust or require the application of vegetable oil to
prevent rust. They do not degrade or fall apart. They can be used without worry time and time again.
