I have had the Big Joe III for 3 years. It has served me well form low and slow cooks to high heat searing. The only negative thing I can say is the bad quality of the paint on the side shelves and control tower peeling off. I did have to get a new hinge and I do have some small cracks in the firebox walls. Everything else has worked well.

I grew up on charcoal but as an adult went propane. In past 30 years haven't enjoyed the experience or flavor. Kept eyeing the Kamado grills. After extensive research went with the Classic III. Haven't failed a dinner yet. Everything we cook is loaded with flavor and moist! And the ability for it to pizzas is an added bonus. I was nervous about the time it would take to regulate and cook but that is not an issue. It maintains temps better than any propane grill I have ever owned. I enjoy cooking on it. I am super excited to be able to extend my grilling season through the winter as a north eastern gal transplanted from Fl , this really added the icing on the cake!

We purchased our Big Joe in 2020 and have enjoyed many delicious meals cooked with it. Our favorite is over the top chili and also, pizza.

I have a kettle grill, A pellet grill too but my go-to grill is my red Kamado. You can do anything on it, low and slow or hot/sear. The top and bottom vents allow temperature control over the whole spectrum, Easy clean out with the ash drawer. It came with the divide and conquer cooking system that allows three tiers of half cooking levels. Also, the slow roller smoking system for low and smoky. There are many other different accessories for grilling fish, vegetables and meats. It has a5 year warranty and great service department too.

I upgraded from a PRIMO XL to the Big Joe Series III last month and have really enjoyed the extra surface area, better freatures, and superior temperature control. I used the Big Joe multiple times a week, and it is great for cooking for my family of eight.

I've had the Big Joe III for two week and smoked ribs, pork shoulder and some seared steaks. Controlling the temperature is ok, but the trickiest part is estimating the amount of lump cahrcoal to use, this requires more practice, i understimated on my steaks yesterday, as cooked vegies in a cast iron dish on the side with indirect heat amd the steaks on direct- should've done both in direct heat . Great tasting food and a life experience :-)

I bought my Big Joe over a year ago. This is my first Kamado. I investigated quite a bit, and chose the bright red Kamado Joe over the green thing due to the available accessories and price point. No buyers remorse here!

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
