Frequently asked questions about the shichirin table bbq

What's the difference between a shichirin and a hibachi grill?
A shichirin is usually made from ceramic and designed for use with binchotan charcoal, which gives a high and constant heat. A hibachi grill is often made of metal and can use different types of charcoal.
How do I maintain my shichirin grill?
It's important to clean the grill properly after every use. Let the grill cool down completely and remove ash and remaining charcoal. Clean the grate with a brush and wipe the inside with a damp cloth.
Can I use my shichirin grill indoors?
Shichirin grills are meant for outdoor use because of the carbon monoxide released when burning charcoal. Want to use it indoors anyway? Always ensure enough ventilation, open windows opposite each other, and set the extractor hood to turbo!
Which dishes can I prepare on a shichirin grill?
The possibilities are endless: from yakitori (Japanese chicken skewers) and grilled vegetables to seafood and even small steaks.

Which type of charcoal is most suitable for a Shichirin Grill?

Binchotan

The most suitable type of charcoal for a Shichirin Grill is so-called “Binchotan” or white charcoal. Binchotan is a high-quality charcoal variant traditionally used in Japanese kitchens and known for its purity and long burn time. Here are a few reasons why Binchotan is suited to a Shichirin Grill:

  1. High burning temperature: Binchotan quickly reaches high temperatures, making it ideal for fast and even grilling of food.

  2. Minimal smoke development: Binchotan produces significantly less smoke compared to regular charcoal, resulting in a cleaner and purer flavour of the grilled food.

  3. Long burn time: Binchotan has the property of burning slowly and evenly, giving you a longer grilling time without adding charcoal often.

  4. Little smell and flavour: Binchotan has little smell and flavour, so it doesn't affect the natural taste of your dishes.

  5. Efficient use: Because Binchotan is compact and burns efficiently, you need less charcoal for the same grilling result, making it cost-effective.

Make sure you take the proper safety measures when using Binchotan and place it in your Shichirin Grill according to the manufacturer's instructions. This contributes to an optimal grilling experience with a Shichirin.

Marabu charcoal

besides Binchotan, Marabu charcoal is also a suitable choice for use in a Shichirin Grill. Marabu charcoal, coming from the Marabu shrub in Cuba, has some properties that make it ideal for grilling:

  1. High burning temperature: Marabu charcoal quickly reaches high temperatures, making it suitable for powerful and efficient grilling of food.

  2. Minimal smoke production: Similar to Binchotan, Marabu charcoal generally produces less smoke, letting you enjoy a cleaner grilling experience with less smoke development.

  3. Longer burn time: Marabu charcoal tends to burn slowly and evenly, giving you a longer grilling time without frequent refilling.

  4. Natural flavour: Marabu charcoal has a subtle, natural flavour that doesn't overly affect the taste of the grilled food, keeping the original flavours intact.

Using Marabu charcoal in a Shichirin Grill offers you an alternative option for high-quality grilling, and it's important to follow the right amount and the manufacturer's recommended safety guidelines for an optimal grilling experience. Feel free to experiment with both types of charcoal to discover which best suits your personal preferences.
