Key Features
- Divide & Conquer Flexible Cooking System allows you to cook food at multiple levels at different temperatures
- Durable wire mesh fiberglass gasket offers a superior air-tight seal
- Cast aluminum Kontrol Tower top vent allows for consistent airflow & prevents rain from entering the grill
- Split fire box for creating separate temperature zones
The versatile Big Joe II from Kamado Joe is a grill, smoker and oven all in one, that can be ready to cook in 15 minutes. This kamado grill is constructed from 1 1/4-inch thick ceramic that holds heat, maintains temperature and is extremely porous to keep moisture in your meat, producing incredibly juicy, tender food with a true wood-fired flavor. With a 304 stainless steel cooking grate that measures in at 452 square inches, the Big Joe II has one of the largest kamado cooking surfaces in the industry. Cook on two different levels at once using the Divide and Conquer Flexible Cooking System or use the two split heat deflectors for indirect cooking and baking for truly versatile cooking. The split fire box allows you to create two separate heat zones or only use one side of the grill for smaller meals. The Kontrol Tower top vent maintains a consistent air setting for precise temperature management, and it will not slip out of position as the lid is opened. The top vent is constructed with cast aluminum for superior resistance to rust. The dome lid and base feature a double thick, wire mesh fiberglass gasket which offers a superior air-tight seal and long lasting performance. The stainless steel lid latch self activates when you close the lid, ensuring heat does not leak through the seal. The fire grate is made of powder-coated cast iron for durability and superior heating performance, while the slide-out ash drawer makes cleanup easy. The heat-resistant ceramic coating is sure to keep your grill looking as good as it performs. The BJ24 Big Joe II Kamado grill comes with a free grill gripper for handling hot cooking grates and an ash tool for safely and easily removing ashes. The Big Joe II Stand-Alone also includes a grate gripper, ash tool, flexible cooking rack, accessory rack, a heat deflector, and ceramic feet so you can stabilize it in your outdoor kitchen.

 | close to 5 year in, sweeter than ever!!!I've been putting my Classic Joe to the test in the Northeast for the past five years. I don't just use it seasonally - summer or winter, I fire it up. In the summers, I even take it off the stand and truck it to Vermont! Grill is indestructible, I've only needed to replace the gasket. I performs better today then when I got it, or maybe ive dialed it in better. It's become my go-to for everything - smoking, searing, even baking bread. This grill is a beast! I've cooked every meal imaginable on it, and the food consistently comes out amazing. It's the best we've ever had! It I could give it 6 starts I would!! | Was This Helpful? |
| Amazing and EasyI have had it over a year and learning more things as time goes by! Best Steak you will ever cook! | Was This Helpful? |
| The ultimate cooking machineI have had my Big Joe for over 5 years. It looks like the day I got it. Assembly was eays, you just need some strong people to help move it around, but once on wheels, moving is a breeze. I can smoke 3 racks of St Loius ribs at a time. I col d go on and on, but just do it. You will never regret. | Was This Helpful? |
| Worth the investmentWe purchased our Big Joe right before COVID. Since then we continue to use on a weekly basis regardless of the weather we continue to use. | Was This Helpful? |
| Incredible product!I have owned this Big Joe since 2019. It has turned out to be an amazing grill from rack of lamb, to smash burgers (using the cast iron half moon), to flank steak, to pork tenderloin, to pizza, etc. We absolutely love it and love the larger size. | Was This Helpful? |

| Unleashing Culinary Versatility with the KamadoI recently made the switch to the Kamado Joe Grill, and I can confidently say it has revolutionized my outdoor cooking experience. This grill is not just a barbecue; it's a culinary powerhouse that has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. One of the standout features of the Kamado Joe is its remarkable versatility. Whether you're in the mood for slow-smoked ribs, perfectly grilled veggies, or a salmon fillet, this grill has you covered. The ability to smoke and grill with precision is a game-changer, and it opens up a world of possibilities for experimenting with different flavors and cooking techniques. What truly sets the Kamado Joe apart is its dynamic range of heat control. The grill allows for precise temperature adjustments, making it incredibly easy to achieve the perfect heat levels for various cooking styles. Whether you're searing a steak at high temperatures or slow-cooking a tender rack of ribs at a lower heat, the Kamado Joe performs flawlessly. I've been particularly impressed with the multiple levels of cooking ability this grill offers. The tiered cooking grates allow me to cook different items simultaneously, saving time and ensuring that everything is ready to serve at once. This is a game-changer when hosting gatherings or preparing multi-course meals. As someone who used to rely on gas grills, I can confidently say that I will never go back. The Kamado Joe's use of charcoal imparts a rich, smoky flavor to the food if desired that simply cannot be replicated with gas. The authentic barbecue taste elevates every dish, and I find myself excited to try new recipes and experiment with various smoking woods. Another notable aspect is the sheer variety of items you can smoke or grill on the Kamado Joe. From succulent ribs to delicate salmon and even gourmet veggies, there are virtually no limits to what you can create. The grill's versatility has truly inspired me to expand my culinary horizons and explore a wide range of dishes. In conclusion, the Kamado Joe Grill has become an indispensable part of my outdoor cooking repertoire. Its ability to smoke, grill, and provide precise heat control has elevated my culinary adventures to new heights. If you're looking for a grill that offers unparalleled versatility, flavor, and cooking options, the Kamado Joe is a must-have. | Was This Helpful? |

| Fantastic cookerAfter 3 years of use I'm still in love with this cooker. From slow and low to high heat this thing does it all to perfection. I would recommend this cooker to anyone! It will up your cooking versatility and meal options. | Was This Helpful? |
| What took me so long to get a Big Joe III used to smoke with an inferior smoker, (that shall remain nameless). I cook for groups and grill space was always lacking. I upgraded to the Big Joe II and what a difference. My cook temps are consistent, and the surface area is amazing. I have only great things to say about the Big Joe II. | Was This Helpful? |

- Amp firebox
- Air-lift hinge
- Great warranty
Things We Love:
Kamado Joe is all about the spirit of innovation and passion for cooking outdoors, and it shows in their products. Kamado Joe strives for value and a reasonable price point but doesn't cut corners on quality. Their grills are visually striking, from the red color, the eye catching logo on the top vent, down to the stainless steel bottom vent. Kamado Joe grills feature a black steel band, and the freestanding models include a sturdy steel cradle and plastic side shelves that will stand up to the elements for years to come.
Kamado Joe grills are known for their "Divide and Conquer" cooking system which features split stainless steel cooking grids on a rack that allow for cooking different food at different levels, all at the same time! Another nice extra that Kamado Joe has is a set of included accessories with each grill, consisting of an ash tool, cooking grate gripper, and heat deflectors. Most brands don’t include these accessories and the ash tool and patented pull out ash drawer really make cleanup a lot easier. Ceramic heat deflectors are a must with any kamado grill and I like that they're included with every Kamado Joe grill, whereas they're an extra charge with most other brands. The new amp firebox, which comes in 6 pieces helps reduce breakage. One nice addition to the BigJoe is the firebox vertical divider which allows for increased versatility when piling your charcoal on one side of the grill only.
One of my favorite features is the air-lift hinge, which come on the Classic and BigJoe models. Kamado grills are notorious for having heavy lids, that can take some muscle to open and close. Heavy lids can also cause your ceramics to break by accidentally slamming the lid shut. Kamado Joe's air-lift hinge reduces the weight of the lid by 96%, making opening and closing your lid a breeze. The new cast aluminum kontrol tower top allows for consistent airflow, stays in position, & prevents rain from entering the grill. This takes the worry out of having to constantly adjust the airflow when you open and shut the lid.
Kamado Joe now has a durable wire mesh fiberglass gasket. This gasket offers a superior air-tight seal, and is 10x the life of normal industry gaskets. Kamado Joe has also added a new stainless steel latch that is self activating, giving it an ultra air-tight seal.
There are also many available optional accessories that increase the versatility of Kamado Joe’s grills. The chicken stand, grill expander, and pizza stone, are a few of the most popular. If you really want to get the most out of your Kamado Joe, you can’t go wrong with the Joetisserie. This rotisserie, allows you to roast a wide variety of meats while naturally basting them in their own juices.
Thing To Consider:
Kamado Joe’s bestselling size, the Classic, features a cooking grid that is only 18” in diameter, this may cause you to have to cook in batches vs all at the same time when cooking for larger groups of people. It might also present a challenge when trying to cook over-sized cuts of meat, such as a 14-15 pound brisket. These concerns are not really an issue with the BigJoe!
You'll Like This Grill If:
You want a high quality kamado style grill with more cooking versatility and easier clean up than any other round kamado on the market!
