I've had this grill for a few years and having a family of 4 makes dinner time fun! The size of the grill allows me to set it up in many different configurations. When using half moon soapstone for example, its large enough to have all 4 burgers on getting smashed! If feeding larger group, I'm able to do a few pork shoulders or ribs at the same time. The Divide & Conquer rack is great for cooking things at different levels and temps. You get 3 different levels to choose from.
Using KJ lump charcoal have kept temp for 15 hours and fuel left. Like the low ash left compared to kettle type grill and much easier to control temps. Does better than expected.
I received the Kamado Joe III as a gift after several years of asks. My first cook, which was a slow cook Prime Rib made converts of wife and family. When I slow cooked Salmon I converted my mother-in-law that never enjoyed salmon until this cook. I look like a pro; we and our guests love the meals prepared. I recommend the Kamado to everyone
This is my second kamando joe, the first one was destroyed in a hurricane. My Joe is great for smoking and low and slow cooks. I use the rotisserie and pizza additions. And of course searing steaks and bbq. I use to have a smoker and rotisserie I've thrown them out. My Joe does it all. I highly recommend it.
I bought this grill last year on Father’s Day and without a doubt, one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. It took some learning but I use it about every other day at this point to make so many things. Everything that goes on it is 10/10 for the family.
I was luckily gifted this behemoth by a family member who no longer had the space for it. We used it so much during the summer and even for Christmas after I got the Joetisserie attachment to make Cornish Hens. The versatility is unparalleled!
