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!
Had my Classic III several years ago and it changed my bbq experience for the better! The ability to set and hold smoking temperatures with ease has revolutionized my bbq menu! With the divide and conquer rack system, this bbq provides unmatched flexibility! Every cook is a new adventure!

I bought this is 2020 and have loved cooking in it ever since.

I purchased my Classic Joe III 2 months ago and have been very impressed. First the ability to precisely control cooking temperatures is astonishing. Whether it is low and slow or screaming hot the Joe can do the job. Many of the most useful accessories come standard. The lid can be raised or lowered with my little finger. On a low and slow smoke it maintains temperature for hours without further attention. This is my first experience with a Kamado type grill and I could not be more happy. The results simply speaks for themselves. Delicious and perfectly cooked BBQ. Thank You Kamado Joe! Stephen Smith

Big Joe delivers on a premium grilling and smoking experience, and can literally provide a lifetime of value to you, your family and friends.
So, I was on the edge - should I keep the gas grill, or make the leap. Well. I am now feet first. It took me two cooks to get the charcoal ration correct, but I could not have been more pleased. I have grilled, smoked, seared, rotisseried (is that a word?) The versatility, flavor and results are all the BOMB!! I am a complete and utter convert. I have had gas, pellet and regular charcoal grills in the past. I am a Certified BBQ Judge, former restauranter, and you average Joe. I could not have asked for a better unit for all the attributes. So not hesitate, jump on into the deep end!
I've had the big joe III for 8 months. I used it at least 3 times a week, I love it. I does everything grill, low and slow smoke and bake. I have the rotisserie attached and it's great. Once you stabilize the grill at the desired temp it's a dream. No temp fluctuations. My stick burner smoker hasn't seen any action since we made our joe part of the family
I have been using it for quite some time now, and I absolutely love my BJ3! Has tons of great accessories, extremely versatile, and holds temps incredibly well!
I have owned my Big Joe 3 for almost 2 years. Cooking on this Kamado is such a fun and rewarding experience. I have the cast iron half moon and it just adds to the versatility of this. I enjoy all the different features that Kamado joe has. After having the big Joe I also got a Joe Jr! Being able to do low and slow, indirect, high heat, smoke flavor, you get to choose how you use it.

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.
