Every time I cook on the Joe, turns out amazing,

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cooking on the Kamado is so awsome. Get the coals up to 350. Put on king crab legs. Bast with butter. Flip every so often. The meat has such a nice Smokey taste. I did a 3 way taste test. Boil, oven or Kamado. Hands down Joe won. Made me take the rest an smoke on the Joe before they would eat.

Happy after a year!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a kid, my dad picked up a Kamado and he used it for almost 30 years only letting it go because the metal stand rotted away, and he was getting ready to move to Florida. I bought this after using a Weber gas grill for 25 years and an electric smoker for 10 years. While the gas was convenient, I wanted the smoke flavor back and the smoker was not convenient to use. The Kamado Joe replaced both and has performed great will no extra effort. We have cooked Fish, Beef, Poultry, and Pork on the Kamado Joe with excellent result and flavor. I will also point out that we use to use a countertop rotisserie for chick at least once a month and since we go the Kamado Joe, we have only pulled it out twice. I will also add that the Kamado Joe is way more functional and easier to maintain that the old one my father had. I am extremely happy with this unit.

The GRILL
5 out of 5 stars review

Love this Grill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started to experiment with a gas grill as a step up from a regular charcoal grill. I thought that this was a little expensive for a grill, but after grilling chicken, various meats, and a Thanksgiving turkey, I realized that it was worth it. I would never go back to using only gas or other grills entirely. Love the way the meat falls off the bones when cooking chicken or turkey, and how the meat is tender and juicy. If a grill could get a Michelin star, this would have at least 3.

amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this grill for three months now, and I can confidently say it is the finest grill I have ever owned. It transforms every cut of meat into a masterpiece, cooking them to perfection with tantalizing flavors and incredible juiciness that dance on the palate. Each bite is a delightful experience that leaves you craving more.

A beautiful looking grill with many uses.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose Kamado Joe because of the reviews being better than competitor brands. It is a beautiful grill and very versatile. I have the full grill and the Rotisserie Kit and our favorite accessory, the pizza oven kit. We get many compliments on this grill and people love the ability to cook pizzas!! It does so much. Smoking brisket, cooking prime rib, and so much more. Great investment for our outdoor kitchen.

After 4 years still loving it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Primarily use this for smoking but man is it a workhorse. So efficient. With a full coal basket I can smoke at 250F for 12 hours, open it up and it will still burn at 350F+ for several more while using the slo roller attachment (don't use that above 450F). That being said I'd like to see the KJ team innovate some better top vents that don't get so gunked up. And if you're the aggressive high heat grill master, you might find the grates a little flimsy. Though I think those may be improved in newer models. I recommend this to anyone looking to buy a grill for life!

Quality All Around!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spent a lot of time researching the different Kamado grills and I finally settled on the Kamado Joe Classic III. I have not been disappointed thus far. I have used it several times over the past month and I am very happy with the results. I love the various cooking methods that you can use on the grill as well as the numerous accessories available to fine tune and customize your cook. The only downside thus far is the fact that my other grills are collecting dust.

My most versatile grill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Big Joe III. I use it for everything from low and slow cooks, grilling, cooking pizzas, and rotisserie over a live fire. It performs great and always gives an awesome flavor. I have a ton of grills but if I could only keep one, it would be this.

Does EVERYTHING well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have & have had several other "grills" & cooking devices. Pellets, blackstone, offset, propane...they all have their "thing" they do better than everything else. But this ceramic does everything I've asked it to do as well as or better than the specialty things. Size/capacity is the only downside I've ran into. Sometimes I like to cook for groups & it doesn't have the capacity. But tase is ALWAYS off the charts.

I'm in love with my Kamado

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first started looking at kamado style grills, I was hesitant because of one brand that is really expensive. It was about that time I discovered the Kamado Joe series and did my homework on them. To say the least, I was quite impressed with everything you can do with these wonderful cookers. Since then, I have grilled, smoked meats and made pizza on mine and it keeps on doing a great job.
