A Little History In 1948, Grant Hastings produced the first Hasty-Bake Charcoal Oven. As one of the original manufacturers of the “backyard barbecue,” Hastings was a pioneer in the industry.

ASH PAN (9) All Hasty-Bake models feature a completely removable ash pan, making clean up easy. When the fire box is pulled out for refueling, remember to pull the ash pan out simultaneously to catch the charcoal ashes and cinders that may fall through the fire grate.
