I was tired of the inconsistency and poor quality of my gas smoker and did my research and The Kamado Joe came out on top. My wife picked up one for a Father's Day gift and we love it! I wish the manual had a bit better instructions for use setup, but with some practice we had it down. Accessories have made it even better. Do Joe is the best
I've had my Joe for a few months and really like it. Great features like the ash drawer and slo roller make smoking much more user friendly. I find it easier to light and to get to and keep temperatures. Going to smoke a brisket tomorrow since I've had such good luck with pork butt and ribs. A fine piece of cooking equipment.
The Classic 3 Grill has completely transformed my grilling experience. From the moment I started using it, I realized just how effortless and enjoyable BBQing could be. The grill's design makes it nearly impossible to mess up, even for those who aren't seasoned pitmasters. One of the standout features is its exceptional heat retention and precise temperature control, allowing for both low-and-slow smoking and high-heat searing. Whether I'm cooking ribs, brisket, or even pizzas, everything turns out perfectly every time. The build quality is also top-notch, with durable materials that hold up well over time. What I love most is how easy it is to use. The airflow adjustments are intuitive, and once it's set, it maintains a steady temperature without constant babysitting. Cleanup is a breeze, making the entire BBQ process hassle-free. Since getting the Classic 3, I've been BBQing every weekend, and it has truly become the highlight of my week. If you're looking for a grill that delivers restaurant-quality results with minimal effort, this is it. Absolute game-changer!
The size is a bit shocking when arrived. Works great, but takes a bit of use to understand how different it is compared to the classic Joe. The size makes it somewhat difficult to use only half of the surface. overall great purchase once adjusted to fuel use.
Bought my Big Joe III last year and there isn't a week go by that I'm not cooking on it. Easy to setup and to maintain temperature.
Used this all last season and even during the winter! Nothing beats the heat this baby produces. Low and slow to searing hot and everything in between!

I purchased my Kamado Joe 18" Classic I back on March 15, 2017. I loved it and enjoyed preparing every meal and the fantastic results! I convinced several of my friends and collogues to get a Kamado Joe vs the green egg and they did. I recently tried to replace my firebox because it is all cracked and needs replacement; not due to abuse mind you but after 8 years it was time and they had issues with cracking. Searched hi and low over the internet and they were all out of stock. Contacted Kamado Joe Customer Service and they were USELESS! they told me they were out of stock and had no idea when they would receive any stock. So, I cobble together the pieces to make it work but it is not a long term solution. other than that, and a new cover it looks great. But eventually when I no longer can properly cook with it, what good is it? The pictures provided do justice to the issues. It is clear Kamado Joe is not interested in supporting any long term products or customer service. They are only interested in selling you a new upgraded Joe. While I loved it, yes. I loved my Kamado 18 inch Classic 1, I can no longer use the grill as intended due to Kamado Joe's decision not to support and provide products to keep their legacy customers who encouraged other to purchase their products, Who made them the brand they are today. Prove me wrong and send me a new firebox kit; I'll pay for it, just have the parts for the previous generation of parts. Why would you not have parts for your customers? If you do not want to do this, I encourage anyone thinking of purchasing an expense long term smoker grill that has exceptional customer service that supports their products for the long-term to forget Kamado Joe and purchase a green egg. They have all their parts for their older versions, and you can even purchase them at any ACE Hardware. Very disappointed in Kamado Joe, a former BIGGEST fan and ambassador of your product! PROVE ME WRONG!
My husband and I have wanted a Kamado Joe for years, and bought this as a retirement gift to ourselves. We have used it many times over the past 2 months. Cooked a wonderful filet meal for New Year's Eve, rotisseries chicken wings, loved the pizza!! The more we use it, the better we get, and our guests are very impressed with the wonderful meals that we are sharing with them, provided only on our Kamado Joe!!
Been using my classic 3 for about 4 months now and every type of dish that I have prepared has been elevated in flavor.. I thought that using a Kamado style grill would be difficult and would need to be constantly baby sat, but I was so wrong! Temperature control is so easy and the results have been amazing! I gave away my smoker, my pizza oven, and my Weber gas grill!!!

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.
