I've had the Big Joe III since 2019 and it still looks great and performs like a champ. Plenty of room for three spatchcock chickens or 4 racks of ribs. It's also easy to light and efficient with charcoal. I love my grill.

After going through many different styles of grills and attempting to cook amazing BBQ, nothing has compared to my Big Joe III. I've owned cheaper offsets, numerous different pellet smoker grills, and none have them have blown me away as much as this grill. We've stopped going out to eat for BBQ since I can now make better BBQ, for cheaper, then going out. Not only that, with the rotisserie attachment and pizza attachment I don't need to go out for delicious wings or pizza anymore either. This has easily been one of the best purchases I've made in the last 5 years.
I started to experiment with a gas grill as a step up from a regular charcoal grill. I thought that this was a little expensive for a grill, but after grilling chicken, various meats, and a Thanksgiving turkey, I realized that it was worth it. I would never go back to using only gas or other grills entirely. Love the way the meat falls off the bones when cooking chicken or turkey, and how the meat is tender and juicy. If a grill could get a Michelin star, this would have at least 3.
Had mine for 5 years, dumped my Weber grill, great customer service and warranty from May to November I use ours about 3 to 4 times a week
Not only is the quality of the food amazing, but the prep time and cleanup process is super easy. I use a small amount of charcoal (way less than I used in my old smoker). The fire starts quickly and stays hot the entire time I am smoking. I've had meat smoking for 16 hours and never had to add more charcoal. Keeping the temperature at the recommended level is a lot easier that I thought. By simply adjusting the top and bottom vents it's very easy to hold your desired temperature overnight. These smokers are well worth the money. My Kamado Joe is the highlight of my cooking station. My only regret is not buying one sooner!

I am very pleased with this purchase. I was gifted it by my wife for my birthday and I have enjoyed it ever since. so much fun from starting it up to cooking on it. My only complaint comes to the placement of the ceramic parts to form the firebox. To get the ring to slide down and fit snuggly on the parts for a proper base, I need to utilize paper towels to push the ceramic parts in which sit there until I next I have to remove the ceramic pieces to clean the system.
After moving into our new house, we had a built in outdoor kitchen added. We built in our new Kamado Joe Classic III. It's a first time for me with the Kamado Joe, but wow what a difference over my former (Weber) gas grill. The flavor that it imparts just can't be beat. Something about cooking over charcoal that you just can't duplicate with propane. I'm also extremely impressed with how it retains the cooking temperature internally. It's so good, that my wife who likes her steaks well done is extremely happy with the fact they are well done and very juicy. A fine line I couldn't quite get on a gas grill. Burgers, chicken, steaks, veggies, everything so far has been Wonderful. Thank you KJ.

The Kamado Joe is everything it says it is! The red ceramic just looks so promising and all the features! I recently just bought the digital big joe and can't wait to try it!
The Kamado Joe BJ3 is the best grill/smoker I currently own. With a 24 inch grill, it has plenty of room to fit whatever you need and the additional height in this model separates itself from BGE. Air lift hinge, gasket, cart and side tables are all premium quality. Can dial in anything from 225 to 900 degrees with ease! Built to last a lifetime.

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.
