[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Classic Joe III this summer to replace my previous Classic Joe I that I had for 15 years. My Classic Joe I was in need of repairs after being blown over in a wind storm, and I used some gift cards from my company to purchase the new Classic III. I love the new charcoal basket, the lift mechanism, and the new deluxe stand. These upgrades have made my cooking event even better and the results have been outstanding.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used plenty of grills and smokers over the years, but the Classic Joe III is on a whole different level. If you’re just getting into BBQ, don’t be intimidated by the ceramic style—this thing makes it easier, not harder. The heat holds steady like an oven, so you’re not babysitting the fire every 10 minutes. I’ve smoked ribs low and slow for 6 hours, seared steaks at 700°, and even baked pizza on it. Everything comes out with that wood-fired flavor that’s impossible to fake. The divide-and-conquer system lets you cook multiple ways at once, one side hot and fast, the other low and slow. It’s like having two grills in one. Build quality is rock solid. The lid feels balanced, the seals are tight, and the rolling cart makes it easy to move around even though it’s heavy. It’s not cheap, but the value is there because it replaces a smoker, a grill, and even an oven. If you’re on the fence, this grill makes you look like a pro from day one. Highly recommend it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this for my husband for Father's Day. He absolutely loves it! It has been a fun project between him and I, and with him and our adult son, to learn to use it and try new things out of the smoker. It was pretty easy to set up (did use some YouTube help) and he was able to do a big boston butt the first day. We have since done several types of meats, burgers and the best briskets we have ever eaten. He hardly uses the gas grill anymore and is making plans for Thanksgiving. I very much recommend this product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my KJ3. It’s so versatile and fun to use. I have cooked steaks and ribs like a pro. It so good at holding temperature.
