The grill is designed and cooks exceptionally well. The Joe Jr. is the perfect size for our family of 4.
MANUAL NEEDS TO BE UPDATED FOR JOE JR (reason for a one star deduction). Currently is does not even have a diagram showing the components included with the Joe Jr. Had to watch videos on You Tube to learn you to use this grill.

Very efficient use of lump charcoal, cooks everything perfectly. Great companion to full size Kamado Joe. Built a moveable stand to be able to move it easily.

Amazing what you can cook on such a small grill. Yes you can BBQ for a family of 4! 4 lb pork Butt, or beer can whole chicken, or 4 New York steaks. I also own a Big Joe 24” and 22” Weber kettle but use this Joe jr grill 80% of the time. The times I’m using the other grills are for ribs or 7-8Lb pork butts. This grill can do ribs if you buy a rib rack and fold them but I have other options when I need the space. My point is this is a surprising grill that can smoke, grill, and make amazing food. Ceramic grills really help keep moisture in the food keeping it juicy with tons of flavor. Great job Kamado Joe for making such a great and economical option!

The Joe Jr is a miniature version of the larger grills with the same quality and ceramics. Don’t underestimate it because of the size! You can cook anything on it as long as it will fit and I have. It too can hold 225 or 625. It’s a great grill for quick meals or to cook a pork shoulder. You can also carry it for portability. Recommend

Bought one of the JRs to put on a balcony since we have all of the bigger grills on the deck. Well, it’s the best grill you will ever have. Hands down. In fact, I immediately bought another one for the balcony to use for pizza and tailgate parties. . My next house I will absolutely get the biggest one they make. . The pizza iis freakin amazing. Had many many grills over the years and nothing compare to this one.

I’ve had my Kamado BIg Joe six years now and there’s nothing it can’t do. I use to buy a stainless steel grill every three years, the fire box always rust out. Finally, I made the investment should’ve done it years ago.

Joe Jr is a great companion to our Big Joe. We frequently only grill for two so when it is a Steak night it is nice to not have to fire up Big Joe. Jr. heats quickly and is easy to cook on. We haven't tried to smoke on it but I don't see why for something small that it wouldn't work well.

Very versatile grill. Exceeded expectations and very easy to control. I was able to smoke an 8 lb pork butt to perfection.
