Kamado Joe Big Joe III 24-inch Standalone Charcoal Grill in Red, Grill Gripper, and Ash Tool - KJ15040821

I purchased my Classic Joe III with Joe tisserie and half moon soapstone several years ago and am supremely satisfied. This grill and the accessories deliver every time and help me to produce food that wows all of our guests. From smoking brisket, chuck roast, pork butts, meatloaf to using the rotisserie for roaster chicken or picanha, to grilling fish, burgers, vegetables, etc., there is nothing this product can't do. I have family and friends that have Green Eggs, and while that is a fine product, in my opinion it doesn't hold a candle to the Kamodo Joe and the amazing accessories. Very well done, Kamodo Joe; keep innovating, keep the products coming, and keep "grilling" your competitors!!

Now I'm cooking 5 years on my KJ. It's a very reliable kamado. Once set up, my grill runs like a Swiss watch. The coal consumption is unbeatable. I'm very satisfied with the value for money. The range of applications, from cold smoking, roasting, baking, long jobs, to searing, is also very interesting to me. If you ask me, I would buy my CX III again in a heartbeat.

My only regret is waiting so long to buy it. I was intimidated and wasn't sure how easy it would be to move from my old pellet grill to the Kamado but the learning curve was simpler than I expected and my family has raved about the flavor of food compared to pellets. Definitely worth the investment.

I never imagined a grill could change the way I cook, entertain, and connect with people — until I met the Kamado Big Joe Series III. This isn't just a backyard cooker. It's a culinary powerhouse that delivers unmatched flavor, control, and versatility. The moment I fired it up, I knew I was working with something special. From tender smoked brisket to high-heat seared tomahawks, it handles it all with absolute precision. What truly sets the Big Joe Series III apart is its thoughtful engineering: The SlōRoller® delivers perfect smoke distribution — it's like having a built-in smoke master. The Divide & Conquer® system lets me cook an entire meal — proteins, sides, and more — all at once, all at different temps. And the Air Lift™ Hinge? Genius. Smooth, effortless, and solid. But here's the truth: it's more than performance. It's about experience. Every time I cook on this grill, it draws a crowd. Friends linger longer. Conversations deepen. Meals turn into memories. It makes me feel proud — not just of the food, but of the ritual behind it. The Kamado Big Joe Series III didn't just exceed expectations. It redefined them. If you want to elevate your cooking, your hosting, and your lifestyle — this is the grill. Not a purchase. An investment. And one that pays off every single time you lift that lid.

Happy so far with my Big Joe III, though I must admit, I'm still getting used to it. Prior BBQ was a Weber kettle. The Kamado is definitely more efficient with fuel, but the lump charcoal takes a bit more to get ready. A good tip I got was to wait until the dome is hot to the touch so you get the radiant heat back down from the top. Meat came out tasty and a bit more moist than with the Weber. I suspect I'm going to be learning for quite a while.

We absolutely love ours. Spacious and the multi zone really helps with cooking multiple meat options. We also have the rotisserie as well and it has come in handy multiple times for big gathering.

This Grill is great with the Box divider it's wonderful I have the Big Joe so it will feed multitudes of different size families so you're not wasting charcoal or anything with the divider in the Box

Quick to heat and eager to please, look no further for your next grill. Kamado reaches the temperature your looking for in no time and it holds it steady within minutes... The lid opens wide and it with the new springs it holds up without any give. The new top has resisted some pretty tough storms leaving the inside of the grill dry as it can be, and the latch holds everything down with minimum effort. Light it, Grill it, Love it. Bom apetite!

There's enough cooking surface to feed a family of 7 or a party of 20. The quality of the grill is enough that requires little to no maintenance. The company is innovative with more accessories than you can imagine with all being functional. If you want to buy a grill and never have to replace then this is for you. The quality allows this to be a generational grill.

Quality of the food cooked on the Kamado Joe is exceptional. Very versatile. Highly recommended.
