Great Little Grill

I was contemplating purchasing a kamado grill for a while and after doing some research and figuring out what would suit my needs etc I had it narrowed down to 2 choices. The KJ Jr and another. As luck would have it I found a good deal on the KJ and the decision was made. I don't have anything to compare it to but I can tell it's a good quality. Everything fit together easily and precisely and none of the components are cheap or flimsy. I've only used it three times so far but the meals have been very tasty and the grill holds temps steady very well. It will take a little practice to get the temps and cooking times a little more precise but honing my skills is all the more reason to use it lol. I'm very happy with my decision to go with the KJ Jr and would recommend it to anyone looking for a small charcoal grill.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great versatile grill

I bought this grill for smoking food items, but it can do so much more. The lump charcoal provides a great grilling flavor for meats and seafood. What I like is the grill is so easy to start with the the starter pack from Kamado Joe. Light the starter pack and in 15 to 20 minutes the food is ready to grill. Close the lid and open the air vents and everything is pretty much automatic. Need a hotter grilling surface, and you just open the air vents to increase the heat. This is not like those pellet grills that have one little burning spot which also needs an electrical cord to operate.
When you reduce the air venting on the Kamado Joe you get the natural smoke flavor with a reduced heat. Throw in some apple or cherry wood on top of the lump fire wood and the food is enhanced with flavor. Great smoking for salmon!
The best part is that when the grilling is finished, you close the vents and the fire will go out on its own. The wood that is not burned can be used for your next grilling adventure. The cleanup is super quick and easy. Open the air vent and slide out the ash tray. Dispose of the ashes and slide the ash tray back in for the next grilling time. How could that be any easier?
I was convinced to purchase this grill over similar products by reading the Consumer Reports article. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

Perfect

I've had my KJ since like 2009 and it's still the best money I've ever spent. I've made some upgrades along the way, but didn't absolutely need to because of failing parts. It's so comforting to know this is the last grill I'll ever need to purchase. Works equally great as a grill, pizza oven, and smoker.

Do you want a great kamado?

I purchased my ClassicJoe in January of 2016 and haven’t regretted since. The only downside of the Kamado Joe is my wife continues telling everybody how great the meat is I cook on it. It seems like I’ve got too many new friends. All kidding asides the ClassicJoe is the real deal, it does everything it is touted to do and it does it all very well. Here in Maryland we get some wild seasonal weather changes. More than once I have shoveled snow in the winter around the Joe just to cook pork chops or chicken on it. We enjoy the flavor and dependable results of everything we cook on the ClassicJoe, from slow smoke pork shoulder, to brisket to steaks to pizza to burgers to veggies and on and on. If you need something to put on your Christmas list, a Kamado Joe is a good choice. Maybe Santa will bring me a BigJoe for Christmas.

My First Kamado

I came from the Traeger Pellet Grill family - thought it was three best since sliced bread... later added a Blackstone griddle... well then if course had to research more into these Kamado type grills...
After intensive research through internet, YouTube and more, started narrowing it to the KJ... although I liked the features of the newer models: air hinge, etc..., the lower cost of the Classic I allowed me to buy a ton of accessories....
Long story short, I've had a blast learning the ins and outs of Kamado cooking... very well insulated, easy to get the hang of whether low and slow, grilling a burger, spinning a chicken or making a pizza - my KJ is ang awesome and fun tool!
