The versatile Classic 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. Cook for the whole family on the 304 stainless steel cooking grate that measures in at 254 square inches. 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 patented 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 patented slide-out ash drawer makes cleanup easy. The air lift hinge reduces the dome weight by 96 percent, making it easy to lift the heavy ceramic lid with the high density polyethylene (HDPE) handle. The lid will also stay open at any desired position, allowing you to cook with the lid partially open if you choose to. The heat-resistant ceramic coating is sure to keep your grill looking as good as it performs. The KJ23 Classic Kamado grill comes with a free grill gripper for handling hot cooking grates and an ash tool for safely and easily removing ashes. The Classic Stand-Alone also includes a flexible cooking rack, an accessory rack, a heat deflector, and ceramic feet so you can stabilize it in your outdoor kitchen.

At last, an exceptionally well-engineered grill has arrived. I acquired it two days ago and have used it both yesterday and today. On the first day, I prepared baby back ribs, while a Sirloin Roast was on the menu today. As someone who’s turning 61 in just a few days, I can confidently say this is the finest grill I’ve ever operated. It preheats within a mere 5 minutes and starts to produce a substantial amount of smoke, reminiscent of a locomotive in full swing. The scent of the smoke alone is tantalizing even before you add any meat to the grill. I purchased the model equipped with a temperature probe, and I’ve found its features impressive. The strategic placement of the fan and the pellet smoke dispenser enables it to cook rapidly, requiring only one cup of pellets per use. The clean-up process is straightforward, making daily smoking tasks practically effortless. All you have to do is drop in the pellets, set the preheat temperature, and then determine your desired cooking temperature for the food. From there, it essentially runs on autopilot.
