Customer Reviews for KAMADO JOE - JOE JR. Charcoal Grill with stand - Blaze Red

I came across the Kamado Joe brand while researching Grill/Smokers. I have primarily used propane grills for my grilled foods for close to 40 years. I tried an electric smoker for a short time. I wasn’t impressed with that. I thought that I would end up with a pellet smoker/grill… it seemed like that was the way to go. My son-in-law has one and it seemed to produce some nice smoked meats. The main reason I went with Kamado Joe was that during my research I learned that pellets could become clumped in humid climates. Being that I live in FL, humidity is a huge factor. I also didn’t like the idea of having to plug in a pellet grill and that most cannot sear. I started watching YouTubes on Kamado grills and these grills really intrigued me. The last charcoal style grill I had used was a small Habachi grill, 40 something years ago. Let me tell you, cooking with lump charcoal is the ticket, especially with Kamado Joe. Easy to bring up to temperature and the temperatures hold! I bought my Kamado Joe directly from the website and it came to my house packed extremely well. It was easy to assemble (you’ll need another person for the lift up). I chose the Series I simply because of the price. I would have loved to have the newer style lid and hinge system but so far this grill/ smoker is working great! I’ve smoked 4 racks of ribs, seared and cooked ribeyes and smoked chicken. They all came out great! My next challenge will be a brisket. If you’re on the fence about these grills… go for it. There’s tons of videos with tips and recipes for this style of grilling/smoking. Does it take a little extra time to prepare your meals? Absolutely. But the quality of the cook will totally impress your loved ones and friends.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great grill. If you love ceramic grills this is an awesome grill for the week days. It doesn't take nearly as long to heat up but still gives the same awesome flavors. Would recommend.

My first meal was a whole chicken, which I did not monitor closely, so skin was burned, but I was amazed the chicken was not ruined! It was very tasty and not dried out. I find it fairly easy to control the temperature too. My only regret, is that I wish I had gotten the larger grill, mostly for accessories and a taller grill stand. None the less, I prefer this over a gas grill which I had used for years. I am very pleased

I love my Big Joe! My granddaughter especially loves the pizzas I make on it (better than any takeout or eat-in pizza I've found), but steaks, ribs, chicken all are fabulous. You won't be disappointed. And Kamado Joe's customer service is THE BEST.

Received the Kamadojoe for Father's Day. I very rarely use my pellet smoker anymore. Once I learned how to vent properly I can park this sucker on whatever temperature I want. Great product!

We bought this grill after our former grill broke after giving us many years of great meals. This Kamodo Joe is just as praise worthy. It fixes perfectly grilled food for us. We intend to use it all year long, even here in the frozen tundra of the Midwest. We’ve liked the grill ideas sent by the company. Great smoker/griller!!
