With the Shichirin, you can provide a delicious evening programme, where all guests can enjoy a (summer) gourmet while being their own table chef! A Shichirin is also very popular as a winter barbecue. Want to sit around the Shichirin with friends or family under your canopy? It is all possible! The round Shichirin comes standard with a stainless steel grid on which the tastiest Japanese dishes can be prepared.
The round Shichirin has a grill surface of 31cm which is great for preparing small pieces of meat, fish, vegetables or a large piece to enjoy together. The Shichirin is suitable for 2 - 6 persons. When using the Shichirin for two people, you can choose to fill only half of it with charcoal.
The Shichirin, also called Japanese table grill, is made of ceramic with quartz, cordierite and baked at high temperature. The ceramic also makes the Shichirin very easy to clean. By adjusting the ventilation sliders, you create the perfect air circulation, allowing you to play with the temperature and easily reach high temperatures. The Japanese BBQ is also perfect for winter use, as the ceramic coating also protects against rain and snow, making it weatherproof. The grill is beautifully finished with bamboo and stainless steel details.

Expanding the Shichirin
Would you like to have the full experience and imagine yourself in Japan for a while with our table grill? Add the YAKINIKU® tweezers to your Shichirin! With these tweezers, grilling becomes much easier. With the straight tweezers you put raw fish or meat on the grill, with the curved tweezers you take out your grilled food. Of course, the tweezers are also suitable for vegetables.
You can also expand our Shichirin with the Teppanyaki plate. Teppanyaki literally means grilling on an iron plate and is a very fine way of cooking. Fresh ingredients are brought into contact with a glowing plate on a teppanyaki plate for as short a time as possible and seared at lightning speed, preserving their colour, flavour and nutrients.
What type of charcoal should I use?
Binchotan
The YAKINIKU® Shichirin can only be used outdoors with briquettes, self-lighting briquettes or charcoal. The Japanese use Binchotan charcoal, the black gold of Japan, with which extremely high temperatures can be reached. This charcoal burns longer and at a higher temperature and is quieter than normal charcoal. For burning binchotan, it is best to first make a softer charcoal bed, e.g. with acacia charcoal. Then place the binchotan diagonally on the hot charcoal bed. This way you can light Binchotan easily. It is also possible to light Binchotan with a gas burner, which takes about 15 minutes.
Thanks to the extremely high cooking temperature that the charcoal reaches, you get optimal results with food that stays deliciously juicy inside. A small amount of binchotan is enough to keep the shichirin going for hours.
Quick-Koko briquettes
The BBQ Flavour Quick-Koko briquettes have been specially developed for the Shichirin. The briquettes are made from natural materials and ensure that your Shichirin is ready for use within minutes. The lighter fuel is already included in them, so you don't need to use firelighters. One grill stone allows for an hour of cooking pleasure. The grill stones are individually packed in an airtight and watertight four-pack, making them easy to take along. Guaranteed barbecue fun!
