VONROC

VONROC is a brand of tools and DIY accessories which in Spain we find on Amazon. Its own listing states that its products are developed by specialists and engineers in the Netherlands, and that is as far as we can verify: we have not checked its factory, founding year or ownership, and we do not make them up. In the corner that concerns us it has a kamado of its own, the BQ501XX, plus accessories designed around it, such as the stand for 13-inch kamados we list here.

For a kamado cook, VONROC is not a ceramics brand and does not pretend to be one: it is a tool maker that has come into barbecue through the side door of metal accessories at modest prices. The listing we have read carries catalogue noise (components copied from one product to another, materials that change from one block to the next) and leaves out figures that matter, such as the maximum load of a stand. None of its products has passed through our hands; everything we write comes from reading its listings carefully and comparing what they say with what they leave out.
