NOT YOUR AVERAGE JOE: KAMADO JOE
THEIR STORY
CREATED BY KAMADO USERS, FOR KAMADO USERS
Founded just outside Atlanta in 2009 by Bobby Brennan and Kerry Coker, Kamado Joe has built their brand on having “modernized the grill’s classic style with unparalleled craftsmanship, smarter features, innovative accessories and a range of flexible cooking surfaces.” The ceramic acts as insulation, making it extremely efficient for grilling in cold weather. From your very first cook, you'll know that a kamado is so much more than a grill — kamado cooking is a lifestyle. All year-round.
WHAT IS IT?
AN ANCIENT TECHNIQUE UNCHANGED FOR CENTURIES
Clay and earthenware cooking pots have been used for thousands of years in China, Japan, and India, but the modern-day Kamado Joe grill has only been around for a few decades.
Over time, the clay was replaced with more durable porcelain glazes and ceramics, making them sturdy enough to last almost a lifetime. These grills function a lot like wood-fired ovens because the thick sides can absorb a ton of heat. They also tend to be more efficient with their use of charcoal and cook food more evenly than grills made with plated steel. You can use a Kamado Joe grill to cook steaks and burgers, or transform it into an outdoor oven or smoker. The possibilities are endless!
WHY KAMADO JOE?
NOT JUST A GRILL. IT'S A LIFESTYLE.
Air Vent
The top air vent controls the temperature of the whole grill. The Kamado Joe uses an aluminum upper vent to prevent rusting. It has a smaller valve for airflow and a bigger hole to help the air move.
Lid
The Kamado Joe has a mechanism in the hinge that allows it to slowly pop open when you pop the lid up. You wouldn’t have to be too careful about lowering the lid down.
Ash Removal
Cleaning that ash is really easy. When you take the ash out of the Kamado Joe, there’s an ash drawer that has to be taken out and put back in. Cleaning out the ash is always a pain in the ash. But things are a bit easier if you have a Joe! It’s a quick, easy way to clean out the grill.
Grates
The Kamado Joe features multiple racks, and also comes with a tool for moving around the hot racks.
Conclusion
Crafted to perform better and last longer. That’s the simple, uncompromising quality standard that drives Kamado Joe®—from design to production. Their goal is simple: that each product bearing their name becomes a trusted part of exceptional grilling experiences.
