So far so good.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was tired of the inconsistency and poor quality of my gas smoker and did my research and The Kamado Joe came out on top. My wife picked up one for a Father’s Day gift and we love it! I wish the manual had a bit better instructions for use setup, but with some practice we had it down. Accessories have made it even better. Do Joe is the best

Love my Classic Joe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had my Joe for a few months and really like it. Great features like the ash drawer and slo roller make smoking much more user friendly. I find it easier to light and to get to and keep temperatures. Going to smoke a brisket tomorrow since I've had such good luck with pork butt and ribs. A fine piece of cooking equipment.

Changed my life
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Classic 3 Grill has completely transformed my grilling experience. From the moment I started using it, I realized just how effortless and enjoyable BBQing could be. The grill's design makes it nearly impossible to mess up, even for those who aren't seasoned pitmasters.
One of the standout features is its exceptional heat retention and precise temperature control, allowing for both low-and-slow smoking and high-heat searing. Whether I'm cooking ribs, brisket, or even pizzas, everything turns out perfectly every time. The build quality is also top-notch, with durable materials that hold up well over time.
What I love most is how easy it is to use. The airflow adjustments are intuitive, and once it's set, it maintains a steady temperature without constant babysitting. Cleanup is a breeze, making the entire BBQ process hassle-free.
Since getting the Classic 3, I've been BBQing every weekend, and it has truly become the highlight of my week. If you're looking for a grill that delivers restaurant-quality results with minimal effort, this is it. Absolute game-changer!

Never enjoyed grilling before my Kamado Joe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used this all last season and even during the winter! Nothing beats the heat this baby produces. Low and slow to searing hot and everything in between!

So excited, have wanted a Kamado Joe for years
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I have wanted a Kamado Joe for years, and bought this as a retirement gift to ourselves. We have used it many times over the past 2 months. Cooked a wonderful filet meal for New Year's Eve, rotisseries chicken wings, loved the pizza!! The more we use it, the better we get, and our guests are very impressed with the wonderful meals that we are sharing with them, provided only on our Kamado Joe!!

New level of cooking!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using my classic 3 for about 4 months now and every type of dish that I have prepared has been elevated in flavor.. I thought that using a Kamado style grill would be difficult and would need to be constantly baby sat, but I was so wrong! Temperature control is so easy and the results have been amazing! I gave away my smoker, my pizza oven, and my Weber gas grill!!!

My go to cooker for all my backyard bbq needs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own many different smokers and grills. After 6 months of smoking and grilling on my KJ Classic 3 I have one regret, that I didn’t buy it sooner! After learning the start up process I love the ease of cooking wings, ribs, steaks, and pork butt. I have only done two briskets and they both came out great compared to my pellet smoker. I have added several accessories to add to the versatile of this amazing cooker. Don’t wait, just order it already.

Great grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great grill, just as good as the normal size, but allows me to do more ribs at once. The issue with the 18" one is that it's just ever so slightly short for feeding my whole family when they come over. This has made it possible and it's just great!

Excellent Smoker/grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this Big Joe III about two years ago and I'm still incredibly happy with it. I bought this size and I'm so glad I did! It has plenty of room for all kinds of different meats. Once I figured out the best way to get it fired up, (which wasn't that hard), I can "lock" the temperature right where I want it. Everything I've cooked on this Kamado Joe has turned out fantastic. Whether it gets grilled or smoked, it turns out great. Excellent quality and I'm positive it will be around for years to come.

Kamoda Joe helped me grow as a cook
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a regular and Big Joe models. I own a pellet grill and two other grills that cannot match the quality and taste of grilling in a Kamoda Joe. I smoke 18 pound brisket in mine with superb results. I love my Big Joe

WEEL MADE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this around 4-5 years ago and it has been a great grill, made of quality parts. I live alone and I purchased the biggest model. If you buy a small one then at some point you'll want a bigger one. I also bought the two best attachments the DoJoe and the Joetisserie.

The only pit you will ever need!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this pit for a family of 3. Best decision ever. It is big enough to entertain bigger sizes, but flexible enough to cook for a small group. From smoking (make sure you put plenty of fuel) to searing this pit does it all. So flexible with all accessories. Don't worry about size, it is not too big!

I love the KJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my Kamado Joe III in mid-December. I have done several cooks including brisket, pork shoulder, steaks and burgers. I appreciate the flexible grilling/smoking and searing options I have with the KJ. I have had a Traeger Timberline for several years but I am now a KJ convert!

Big Joe III
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgraded from a Chargriller Akron Kamado and love the Big Joe III! The quality, versatility and ability to cook indirect and direct at the same time is unmatched in any other Kamado style grill, highly recommend for anyone who loves grilling! Just get a friend or 2 to help you put it together, because it is HEAVY!

Game Changer for Outdoor Cooking!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Living in Alaska, I've had the pleasure of using the Kamado Joe Classic III, and I can't say enough good things about it! This grill has truly elevated my outdoor cooking game. I've cooked a variety of dishes, including mouth-watering brisket, delicious pizzas, tender pork shoulder, impressive tomahawk steaks, and whole chickens that turn out juicy every time.
One of the standout features of the Kamado Joe Classic III is the exceptional flavor that comes from using lump charcoal. Unlike electric smokers, the lump charcoal imparts a rich, smoky taste to the food that simply can't be replicated. With the various accessories available, like the plate setter for indirect cooking and the baking stone for perfect pizzas, I can experiment and create elevated flavors and tenderness in nearly any dish. The versatility of this grill has me excited to experiment with even more recipes in the future!
If you're looking for a high-quality, multi-functional grill, the Kamado Joe Classic III is an investment worth making. I can't wait to continue my grilling adventures with it!

Kamado Joe takes BBQ enjoyment up a notch or two
Purchased our Classic Joe series 3 at start of Nov 24. Always owned gas bbq’s and have a gas stove in kitchen. Convenience of gas is unbeatable but when it comes to flavor, the Kamado Joe wins hands down. So far have cooked chicken, tomahawks, brisket, leg of lamb and veg all turned out better than expected for first attempts. Added a pizza stone today and had a crack at homemade pizza. Everyone wanted more but ran out of dough. Enjoying the learning experience and there’s plenty of beginner tutorials online. If you know how to start a fire you can use a Kamado Joe. Once you get the hang of controlling the temperature and wait for it to fully heat up before starting to cook it’s worth the effort. Can’t beat the taste of food cooked over hot charcoal.

Excellent Versatile Grill
This is the best grill I've ever cooked on. Everything turns out great, from briskets, to steaks, to pizza. My only regret is that I should have gotten the Big Joe.

Jack of all trades, master of every single one
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my Big Joe 3 in July of 2023 after selling my Traeger Timberline 1300 and haven’t looked back since.
One of the big considerations for me was versatility. The Joe has delivered on so many different levels here. From smoking a brisket at 250° F, searing chicken thighs for chicken souvlaki, to reverse searing a steak (start out low and slow, pull the steak and finish on high heat) this grill has delivered beyond all of my expectations.
The other major consideration for me was temperature regulation. Absolutely phenomenal in this case. Once you get your temperature honed in, the grill does a fantastic job of holding steady.
The third callout is flavor. The ability to leverage charcoal and wood chunks was a huge driver for me to make this move, and I’ve not been disappointed.
Finally, the Slo Roller. This has been pretty great for longer cooks, combined with the deflector plates for a “double indirect” heat.
All in all, I can’t recommend this grill enough. Any opportunity I get I find myself trying to sell friends and family on converting, and the ones that have, share my sentiment.

Excellent purchase
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a competitor’s version and decided I needed more versatility. I have had the big Joe for a few years and it has proven to be an excellent purchase. I recommend Kamado Joe to everyone that ask what I use. I am actually looking into getting a smaller Kamardo setup for other style cooks. I have also had a warranty claim and it was extremely satisfying dealing with Kamado Joe and making it very easy for a claim
