Best grill ever
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased my grill about 9 months ago and I couldn’t be happier. This grill has far exceeded my expectations, I was hooked after using it the first time. The ease of starting, clean up and mostly the amazing food I have been about to grill is fantastic. Wish I had bought it sooner, I tried 2 other expensive grills (trager) only to give up out of frustration.

Better than I hoped!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Kamado Joe has lived up to the legend! It’s transformed my outdoor cooking. Used to use gas grill daily, now use it sparingly. The heat control on Kamado has totally got me hooked on charcoal grilling!

Big Joe...best all around BBQ!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had my Big Joe for about 18 months. It has never failed to deliver the greatest results. Brisket, Pork Shoulder, Ribs, Chicken, Burgers, Tritip, Steak, Prime Rib, and Pizza. My family, friends, and me can't go out for BBQ, never matches up to what Big Joe delivers. LOVE IT!!!

Just awesome and my main grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to hoard and collect grills but it became overwhelming. I sold all my Webers and Traegers and kept my Joe Jr. But added a Classic Joe II and I'm loving it. It just does everything.

Exceeded expectations
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very nervous about spending this kind of money on a grill but I'm glad I did. This grill has exceeded every expectation and more. My family can't get enough of the food smoked and seared on this grill.

I always look forward to cooking on my Kamado Joe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had had some small charcoal kettle grills in the past but never got into using them much. I suppose I tinkered around with the idea of getting a traditional gas grill but never settled on one. When pellet grills starting getting popular and I heard friends talking about smoking meats I was intrigued and attracted. However, I didn't like the idea of a more-or-less single-use (smoking) cooker. I wanted to be able to cook over flames/embers too like burgers and steaks. From going to home improvement stores I was sure no one there would be good to discuss options so I went to store that only sells grills and related items. I told the store rep my interest in slow smoking but also direct grilling and that I preferred to do that on one grill, not 2. They suggested Kamado Joe explaining the advantages even though it may take some time to learn to control the heat level. I went for it and haven't regretted it. So far I've smoked pork tenderloin, pork loin, pork ribs, pork shoulder, picanha, and turkey. I always look forward to cooking on my Joe Classic.

Kamado Joe Classic II: A Versatile Powerhouse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Kamado Joe Classic II is one of the most versatile and well-built ceramic grills on the market, seamlessly transitioning between a smoker, grill, and oven. Whether you're slow-smoking a brisket, searing steaks, or baking a pizza, this kamado-style cooker delivers exceptional performance with precise temperature control and innovative accessories that expand its capabilities even further.
Versatility: From Smoker to Oven
One of the standout features of the Kamado Joe Classic II is its ability to function as a low-and-slow smoker, high-heat grill, and even a convection oven. Thanks to the thick ceramic walls and airtight seal, it retains heat and moisture exceptionally well, making it perfect for smoking meats at a steady 225°F for hours or cranking up to 700°F for an authentic steakhouse-quality sear. With a heat deflector in place, it turns into an efficient oven, capable of baking crispy pizzas, bread, and even desserts.
Divide & Conquer System: Next-Level Cooking Flexibility
The half-moon cooking grates and accessories are a game changer. Kamado Joe’s Divide & Conquer Flexible Cooking System allows you to set up different heat zones by placing grates at different levels or adding heat deflectors to one side. This means you can sear a steak on direct heat while simultaneously slow-roasting vegetables on indirect heat—something you simply can’t do with traditional grills. Want to cook a stir-fry? Swap in a cast-iron half-moon griddle. Craving wood-fired pizza? The Kamado Joe’s pizza stone accessory works beautifully.
Set & Forget Cooking: Precise and Easy Temperature Control
Unlike traditional charcoal grills that require constant babysitting, the Kamado Joe Classic II makes temperature control simple and reliable. The Kontrol Tower Top Vent and air-tight gasket system allow for fine-tuned airflow adjustments, keeping temperatures rock steady for long cooks. Add in an automatic temperature controller like the iKamand, and you’ve got a true set-and-forget experience, where the grill does all the work while you relax.
Final Verdict
The Kamado Joe Classic II is not just a grill—it’s an all-in-one outdoor cooking powerhouse. The ability to go from smoking to grilling to baking, combined with the modular half-moon accessories and precise temperature control, makes it a must-have for backyard cooks who want unmatched versatility and ease of use. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pitmaster, the Kamado Joe Classic II will elevate your cooking to the next level.

Brings new life to the patio
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Currently i own a gas grill and a pellet smoker. I have been doing some research on the Kamado for a few weeks on and off and planned to buy one this coming spring. I knew exactly what i wanted and happened to stumble across it in January so i bought it ahead of time. I'M GLAD I DID. I have already had a few very fun cooks. The kamado has really brought the FUN BACK into outdoor cooking. This is a flavor that you get from NO other grill.

Exceeded all my expectations!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Classic Joe II a month ago and couldn’t be happier. There is such a great community of people online that have helped me pick up grilling and smoking so quickly. I have yet to really have a letdown. All cooks have been great and the food is unlike anything I have ever had off a grill before at home. Smoking ribs is easy. Reverse sear on a Ribeye, easy with the divide and conquer racks!

LOVE MY JOE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a year ago and learned how to operate it correctly. I absolutely love the versatility of this thing from smoking low and slow all day to hot searing capabilities of 6-700 degrees for steaks. Nothing beats that charcoal flavor. I’ve had a propane grill before and this thing hands down just wins

Party pleaser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has made our home the party central in the neighborhood. Everyone now comes expecting the best bbq experience that’s better than most restaurants. We receive nothing but compliments from the food cooked with my kamado. Even those with pellet smokers agree, that nothing beats this beast.
