[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this grill to replace a gas grill. I am retired so speed of cooking is no longer a factor. The Kamato Joe Classic is very versatile because of the precise temperature control and the ability to change the style of cooking from indirect to direct cooking. The flavorful and juicy foods the I can make with this grill is far above a gas grill.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Big Joe is all about quality exceeding the competitors in the field. The spring that allows you to open he top with ease, the finish, the available accessories, durability, and every little detail is above and beyond the other offerings on the market. Definitely would buy again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best Kamado on the market. I've had this baby for 6 years and it performs perfectly everytime! You won't be disappointed with your purchase!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never a bad meal, never a let down. The warranty is amazing. Food is always moist and full of flavor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using my kamado joe for 6 years now, I can guarantee you that I have forgot how many barbecues I’ve made, also I’ve never ended up not satisfied with results. It’s a win-win machine! Absolutely worth it. It also gets better with time and usage, not to mention you will learn all the tricks along the way, specially how to speed up the heating and how to properly control it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned a lot of grills, and I can still say after six years, this is the best grill I’ve ever owned.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Classic Joe series II, and as a beginner to Kamado-style cooking, I have to say, it was a really interesting experience! The first thing I noticed was the sturdy build quality—it feels like it's made to last. Setting it up was a bit tricky for me, but once I got the hang of it, things started to make sense.
I really liked how the temperature control worked. At first, I was worried I might burn everything because it seemed complicated, but the vents are actually pretty intuitive once you understand them. I was able to maintain a consistent temperature, which made cooking a lot easier.
The cooking space was decent, although with the Joe Jr., I had to be a bit more creative with fitting everything in. The food turned out amazing—juicy and full of flavor. I tried grilling some steaks, and they came out perfectly seared with that nice smoky taste I was hoping for.
Cleaning up wasn't as hard as I expected either. The ash drawer made it simple to remove the ashes, and the ceramic inside wiped down pretty easily.
Overall, I’m really happy with my first Kamado experience. It was a bit of a learning curve, but now I’m excited to try more recipes. If you're new to this kind of cooking, I think you'll really enjoy the Classic Joe SERIES II too!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned this for a couple of months now. They are a lot easier to start and maintain temp then one would expect and the items turn out wonderful.
