Aaron Franklin of Austin, TX, barbecue fame has cooked on PK Grills for many years, consistently turning to their unique design for quality cooks. When approached by PK with the unique opportunity to develop his own PK 300 grill model, it was an automatic yes. Franklin made a few improvements on the original PK 300 model to bring you the special edition available today.

At the heart of its upgraded retro architecture, the PK 300 charcoal grill embodies the spirit and pure cooking simplicity of the very first cast aluminum PK Grill to come out of its mold in 1952. Still built to cook. Still built to last. As always, 100% Original.
