King Kooker 24WC 12″ Portable Propane Outdoor Cooker with Wok (Review)
King Kooker 24WC is portable propane outdoor wok cooker. It comes with 54,000-BTU CSA-certified cast iron burner and 18″ carbon steel wok. It’s fairly affordable unit so it’s only natural to wonder – ‘’is it any good’’?
Cooking with King Kooker 24WC
King Kooker 24WC gets crazy hot – it’s the real deal. You will probably never turn it on full heat. This is a real stir fry experience. It cooks very well and overall the performance is really impressive for the price tag.
The wok itself isn’t of highest quality. It’s not bad but it’s quite thin. If it was thicker it could absorb more heat and that could transfer into better cooking experience but with that being said it works well. If you want to steam something like vegetables you will need to buy lid separately.
Seasoning the Wok
You absolutely have to preseason this wok otherwise it will rust to some degree. First thing you have to do is to scrub all the residue/resin off. This will take some time and effort so be mentally prepared for it.
After that you can finally preseason it. If you don’t know how to do it you can find many tutorials on YouTube or on search engines like Google.
Quality
King Kooker 24WC is not extremely sturdy which is to be expected it being a budget priced unit. The quality is ‘’good enough’’ as you may say it. It won’t impress anyone but it will get the job done. Frame is made of steel.
Assembly
Fairly easy and fast to assemble. Instructions are detailed enough and are easy to understand. All of the parts fit nicely.

The quality might not be the best but it’s acceptable for the money. Overall King Kooker 24WC works and cooks well. It’s not a high-end unit so don’t expect it to feel like one but if you want something that’s affordable and offers great value for money then King Kooker 24WC fits these criteria very well.
