Kamado Joe is Life

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned my Kamado Joe for 10 years, and it has become much more than just a grill—it’s part of our family’s daily life. I use it constantly for everything from slow-smoked ribs to quick weeknight meals, and it has never let me down. But the moment that truly proved its value came after Hurricane Helene, when we lost power for an entire week. While neighbors scrambled to make do, my Kamado Joe became our kitchen. I was able to cook hot, de...

Game-Changing Grill Experience

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my Kamado Joe Classic II for 5 years now, and it still feels like the day I bought it. The Air Lift Hinge makes lifting the heavy ceramic lid effortless, and the Kontrol Tower top vent keeps temperatures rock steady for hours. The Divide & Conquer cooking system lets me sear steaks on one side while smoking ribs or veggies on the other, and the upgraded fiberglass gasket plus AMP firebox have held up perfectly—no issues after years of ...

Love our Big Joe

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this kamado. We cook four butts or four racks all the time. Our neighbors are thankful for the extra capacity! We originally purchased in 2020 after having owned a few akorn's. Researched a few years before pulling the trigger. I wish I had gotten sooner. Once you get the vent settings you like, the Big Joe can run unattended for the duration of cooks. We use a fireboard to monitor temps for longer cooks b/c Big Joe can run 18+ hour...

One and done cooker.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve cooked on this weekly for several months. I’ve had them all, pellet grills, off sets, propane, ugly drum smokers… and this replaces them all but provides a better smoke, grill, and roast than all they other types of grill. It is incredible how well this thing maintains temperature and how efficient it is with charcoal. From smoking at 225f for 8 hours to a 700 degree sear. An incredible value. Pro tip. Don’t hesitate, get the joetisserie i...

I'm ALL IN!!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my KJ Classic II 3 years ago and can honestly say, this grill is incredible. I initially dipped my toe in the water and bought a cheaper "box store" brand kamado. I had it for about a year and couldn't get the temps to even out, so started doing some research online. That's when I stumbled upon Smoking Dad BBQ. After watching all of his content, I was sold on KJ. I ended up selling my junk kamado along with the table I made for it...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this grill for a year now, it’s become my favorite because of its consistency and great tasting food. From time to time I have to tighten up the latch but other than that, I’ve had no problems.

A Really Big Deal

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my Big Joe with intentions of weight loss. This has made my Carnivore diet so easy and grilled meats have been so good. Since late March 2025, I am down 70 lbs and for me, the motivation came from this grill. I grill once a week and this has made it so easy to manage cooking. I only regret not buying this sooner. My favorite is buying, cutting and grilling whole beef Ribeye that lasts 2 or more weeks. The grill is expensive but so w...

Jump in with both feet!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Over 2 years ago now I decided that my smoking game was pretty average, and I wanted to do more. My wife who is my guinea pig for grilled food, agreed! Being the perfect wife that she is, she surprised me w/a classic Joe...I became an addict!!! I love everything about it! Low & slow, searing, duel temp zones, and so much more! Well I started to get pretty good with what I had, but I wanted more! Kamado continuously runs deals that allowed me to...
