Primo XL Oval 400 Buyer's Guide & FAQ

Primo XL Oval 400 Buyer's Guide & FAQ

What improvements have been made over the years to the XL Oval?

Depending on your grill's age, Primo's design updates include:

  • Damper Top: Multi-function vent for better airflow control.
  • Hinge: Redesigned assembly for easier lifting.
  • Grates: Upgraded to heavy-duty stainless steel.
  • Rotisserie: Added compatibility for motor-driven rotisserie kits.
  • Drip Pans: Custom D-shape contouring to match the oval footprint.
  • Thermometer: Threaded back mount for secure, accurate readings.
How do I confirm my Primo Oval size?

The Primo XL Oval 400 has an 18.5" x 25" main grid area (400 sq. in.) and is Primo's most popular grill. The Jack Daniel's Edition is identical in size—all XL 400 parts and accessories fit both. Verify your model using our What Size Primo Oval Grill Do I Have? sizing guide.

Where can I find replacement parts for the Primo XL Oval 400?

We carry a range of genuine Primo replacement parts for the XL Oval 400, including cooking grids, charcoal grates, gaskets, dome thermometers, damper tops, ceramic components, bands, hinges and other common wear or replacement items.

How does the XL Oval compare in size to the Big Joe and XL EGG?

At 400 sq. inches, the Primo XL Oval is slightly smaller in total surface area than the Big Joe and XL EGG (~452 sq. inches), but features an oval geometry (18.5" x 25") rather than a 24" round grid.

What accessories are essential for indirect smoking on the XL 400?

You will need two XL Oval heat deflector plates and two deflector racks. The racks hold the ceramic plates under the cooking grids to block direct flame exposure for smoking and baking.

Can I run two-zone grilling?

Yes. Place one heat deflector plate and rack on one side for indirect roasting, leaving the other side open over direct coals for direct grilling.
