Best Grill I own
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Kamado Joe BJ3 is the best grill/smoker I currently own. With a 24 inch grill, it has plenty of room to fit whatever you need and the additional height in this model separates itself from BGE. Air lift hinge, gasket, cart and side tables are all premium quality. Can dial in anything from 225 to 900 degrees with ease! Built to last a lifetime.

Fantastic Grill!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wanting to purchase a Kamado Joe grill for a long time. After buying, I was extremely happy.

Love It!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using the Classic III for almost five years now. Use it for everything from brisket or ribs for a longer smote to smash burgers on the cast iron half-moon accessories. I also cook the bacon on the cast iron...fantastic results. (bonus -it keeps the bacon smell out of the house) Love the high-temp searing on the grill for a quick steak.. The ease of temp control is fantastic when compared to the side smoters I had previously.

Love the rotisserie and the flame boss
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this grill in 2018 on the advice of a friend who owns 3 green eggs.😆 He says it’s a great grill plus it comes with extra accessories. I was impressed with the lid hinge and how easy it was to lift. My friends grill is heavy to lift the lid. He too was impressed. I cook just about everything on this grill. I love the rotisserie which I use often. I like doing chargrilled oysters when the weather gets cooler. I have always used Weber grills too many to count and will never look back. My wife of 45 years and I absolutely love these Kamado grills.

classic joe III
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased series 3 grill about 4 months ago and am very happy with purchase. Item was excellently packaged and due to it being very susceptible to breakage, I was very concerned. Could not of been packaged any better. Grill works great, just taking time to find out best way to control heat. Just smoked some salmon for 8 hours and it turn out perfectly. Very happy with my purchase.

A great new part of our life
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start from the outside and work my way in. The exterior is so stylish: our friends and neighbors are enamored of it from first sight. That scarlet red, that shape, that sense of serious cooking. And as you move in, a great versatility of configurations -- one grill, two; deflectors, separator, drip pan holder. There is no dogmatic aspect to this and you can configure it according to needs and desires. It builds up great heat. We've had it only a few weeks but have used it for great dishes ranging from crusty pizza to perfect steak. I so look forward to getting into it more.

Versatile workhorse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Big Joe III is a versatile grill for diverse cooking styles. Its large size makes it easy to do two zone cooking or not need to always use multiple levels or move hot grates around. I like that it can cook everything from searing steaks to slow-smoking. It's a premium price but it's an all-in-one champ that gives great results. All I need in my backyard is a Big Joe III and a flat top to do just anything!

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.

Worth the money
I was a huge Traeger fan and skeptical on adding the Joe to my cooking station. I am beyond impressed and glad I spent the money. The best part is the rotisserie option!!!

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.

The Ultimate Smoker & Grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my Classic Joe III for 8 months and I love it! I’ve been a loyal Big Green Egg owner until now. The Kamado Joe has so much included. The Kick Ash basket is easy to use. The divide and conquer system allows for multi-level cooking. The one finger open hinge is easy to operate, and latch seals the Kamado Joe closed. Finally, the included SLO Roller enhances the smoking experience.

Like having a 4 star restaurant in your back yard
I decided to bite the bullet about 2 years ago and get my classic 3. I did a ton of research prior to buying one. I watched several YouTube channels including kamado's official channel and I even did research on some of the major competitors like the green egg. In my opinion, the kamado joe is just a superior grilling experience. There is a learning curve, as with all grills, but with the kamado joe you are truly only limited by your own patience and skills. I've smoked and prepared a ton of food items. Some of my foods include ribs, brisket, fajitas, steaks, burgers, snapper, salmon, pancakes, chicken wings, thighs, whole chickens and turkeys. Where I feel kamado beats there competition is in the accessories. There truly is an accessory for anything you can think of. And it holds its temperature perfectly for hours upon hours once you learn how to build the right fire. And yes it was expensive but you get what you pay for and I've actually saved money in the long run because I've been cooking my own meals a lot more since I purchased my kamado joe instead of eating out. It's also nice knowing exactly how much sodium or other ingredients are in my food since I'm preparing it myself. It's also much easier to clean than previous grills that I've owned. If you are thinking about buying one think of it more like a long term investment that can literally last a lifetime.

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.

Best Grill - Period
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Classic III about 2 months ago and love it. The online help for recipe's (Kamado Joe website or Youtube Kamado Joe influencers) is great and makes it very easy for a beginner. Every meal has been perfect - I cooked everything = whitefish, smashburgers, seared ribeye's, pizza, rotisserie chicken, beer can chicken.

Love my KJ3
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my Kamado Joe K3 smoker three years ago, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! This smoker has truly transformed my outdoor cooking experience. The build quality is outstanding, with sturdy materials that feel incredibly durable. The unique ceramic design not only retains heat efficiently but the slow gives food a fantastic flavor. I've tried various meats, from ribs to brisket, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. The temperature control is spot-on, allowing me to achieve that perfect low-and-slow cook without any hassle. I also love the versatility of the K3; I can smoke, grill, or make pizza with it. Clean-up easy as well. The charcoal usage is efficient, and I appreciate how long it holds the heat. Overall, I highly recommend the Kamado Joe K3 to anyone looking to elevate their grilling and smoking game. It’s fun to use, and the flavor it imparts to food is truly exceptional. This smoker has definitely earned a permanent spot on my deck!

Versatile cooking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the classic joe seris 3 for my birthday last year. Moved up from a pellet smoker and a weber and never looked back. This grill does it all. From burgers and steaks, ribs, brisket, rotisserie chicken, picanha, scallops on the soapstone, it can’t be beat. The split cooking system also allows for lots of versatile cooking.

The most versatile grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everyone knows the quality of Kanata Joe I’ve had classic three for about five years now and this is my most used grill. I can use it for long and slow cooks, I can use it for extremely high sea and anything in between, also the charcoal flavor is amazing, and cannot be replaced with anything my truly most favorite go to workhorse!

Very happy to have it and I get to acquire all these cooking accessories which drives my wife crazy!

Fire it Up with the Big Joe Series III Grill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this awesome grill a few years ago. It is very easy to smoke any variety of meats, salmon or macaroni cheese.
