KJ23RHC Classic II Smoker BBQ, Outdoor Charcoal Barbecue Grill In Red With Cast Iron Cart, Heat Deflectors And Ash Tool

Excellent BBQ, got it at a good price and can't fault the delivery company. I've seen some reviews saying arrow was poor but for me they turned up when they said, phoned an hour before and were friendly and professional.

This is the best bbq I've ever owned! Never cooking meat in a conventional oven again lol

I bought this kamado bbq to replace an old steel bbq. I’m very impressed with it, I use less charcoal and the results are impressive. Too bad that original add ons like rotisserie and pizza oven are so expensive. I recommend it!

Expensive, but worth every penny. This grill/oven/smoker takes barbecue to a whole new level. So far we have produced meltingly delicious pulled pork (an 18 hour low smoke we could never have attempted before); creamily tender brisket; the moistest, tenderest roast chicken ever; and drop dead gorgeous pizza. Even relatively mundane dishes like pork chops and steak are elevated by the Kamado’s fierce but controllable charcoal grill. We bought this because we wanted to do a better job of hosting summer parties in our garden. Now we can cook for 20+ at a time with much less stress, and people love the wonderful smoky flavours we produce. But we’ve discovered that this BBQ isn’t just for summer: I have no spent several Friday evenings outside with a hea torch and an umbrella: I think we may end up slow roasting the Xmas turkey too. If you decide to treat yourself, invest in some good supporting literature. I recommend “Pitt Cue & Co”, “The Hang Fire Cookbook”, and “Berber & Q”.

The grill is great. No fault with the product but the vendor's judgement to use Arrow XL is questionable. Our issue is what we endured to get this delivered more than 2 weeks late on 22 March. Arrow XL would schedule a date and no show. Arrow XL rescheduled 6 times and NEVER communicated directly about rescheduling until after the fact. Updates in their tracking app were vague and misleading. Customer Service was difficult to reach and when we finally did, they were useless. After the 5th no-show, I asked for escalation of the case. Denied. The final tracking entry was an outright lie, claiming we had requested a new date. No one from Arrow XL spoke to any of us. We never requested a new date. We were on site every time waiting, taking leave from work. We began to question if this delivery would ever be completed. It was only after we contacted an investigative reporter did the grill "miraculously" get delivered two days later via "special delivery." Grill great. Arrow XL was a nightmare.

Build quality is mostly great, couple of gripes but worth paying a premium for. I use this all the time, making breakfasts, smoking briskets, grilling steaks, it's so versatile and great to look at as a garden ornament. Lots of accessories, all great too. Only gripe is some times it's hard to remove the ash basket. Highly recommended.

Welcome to the worlds most amazing tasting food - at the expense of packaging which would turn the most even tempered man into a raging nutter. Yeah sure its gotta survive shipping (which it didn't anyway!) but does it really have to be an un-ending stream of plastic and polystyrene wedging a myriad of randomly taped and tied together parts into the inside with other parts randomly hidden between the crate. This thing (Classic II) is INSANELY HEAVY. Forget a second person to help, you will need a crane. The rest is great and I couldn't be happier even if it came with a in the lid. After the nightmare of setting it up Im not dealing with a damn return on top of it. Worth it

The kamado Joe is super! I was indecisive about what bbq to buy, but when Amazon had a sale on, I bit the bullet and never looked back. First of all the delivery was brilliant, straight to my back door. It comes in a palletised box with everything packaged fantastically. It’s a hefty lump, so you will need another person to help you manoeuvre it into place and build it, but the instructions are great and you’ll be smoking in no time. I’ve used it multiple times a week since owning it, and it has really helped me up my smoking and BBQ game. It’s a joy to use and quite the learning curve to learn the nuances of the kamado, but after a few sessions, and a bit of confidence you’ll be smoking for hours on end no trouble. Once you’ve got the hang of temperature control, you’ll be flying! Don’t hesitate, add this to your collection!

This grill is a game changer! I have been a gas grill dude for a long time because of its convenience and affordability. The problem with a frequent griller is that these consumer metal grills die after a few years even with good cleaning practices and I really missed the smoke/charcoal flavor that you don’t get from a gas grill. Tired of buying replacement parts every year, for the next grill search, I wanted to look into a ceramic style grill because of all the great feedback heard for several years. These aren’t budget grills and are pricey but getting a grill every 5 years adds up and gets frustrating. This time I decided to stop the cycle and spend some money on a high quality unit; the Kamado Joe Classic was my choice. My first thought is wow, I can’t believe how great this grill cooks and it seems the more I cook on it, the more it cures. I’ve cooked brisket, burgers, chicken, sirloin tip roast, baked cornbread, and tons of vegetables. This thing just continues to amaze me and my family is super happy not no have to lie about the char from my past grills. I’m not saying that this grill automatically turned me into a award winning grill master, but the divide and conquer set up gives more options to perfect your cook as opposed to traditional grills where shoving the delicate stuff on the top rack and closing the lid is about your only option. The grill arrives in a crate and is extremely well packed. This is a heavy grill and is simple to set up, however, you need two to three people to lift this beast on to the base. Once on the base, the inside fire box parts and the rest of it goes in really easy. The construction is thick ceramic and has a beautiful red glaze. It’s essentially a giant pottery cooker. Owning charcoal grills back in the day, I assumed that clean up was going to be a fairly dirty affair, however I found that with using the recommended chunk charcoal, there is a lot less to clean up than with briquettes. The Kamado can use chunk charcoal and wood. While briquettes will work as well, I personally will not use them in this grill to avoid that fuel smell imbedding in the grill. There are several chunk coal brands on Amazon that will work great including the Kamado brand charcoal. Lighting this grill is easy as long as you have good charcoal and a good starter. I use the haystack looking starters and food chunk charcoal. The included divide and conquer system is an innovative way to maximize a cook, meaning that it allows for indirect and direct grilling simultaneously. There are other accessories available as well which extends the options of use. The top and bottom vent work together to provide consistent heat through your cook. Once you learn how to work the vents to control heat, you can walk away with confidence that nothing crazy is going to happen. This pottery marvel keeps the heat better than any grill I’ve used. I found the Kamado to keep a 300 degree temp with the vents closed after a cook for about 3 hours. I was blown away. Knowing this, a batch of cornbread followed my last cook. The thermometer works well, but was hard to see, so it was replaced with a more visible model. The ash drawer is a nice addition and helps with cleanup. The side shelves are solid metal and match the metal legs. I like that they fold down and are metal-wood always rots away. The wheels work well. Be sure to assemble the locks to the front the grill instead of the back in case you set up in a corner like I do. There are tons of videos available to help you on your way if needed. I am extremely happy with the quality and versatility of this grill and am confident that this grill will outlast me. I highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a heavy duty ceramic style cooker!

Lo estamos estrenando, de momento lo hemos usado una vez y genial. Robusto y la comida muy buena . Permite hacer varias funciones en una y evitas hacer obra para tener una barbacoa.

Der Kamado Joe Classic II ist nicht einfach nur ein Grill – er ist eine Grill-Religion. Wer einmal mit einem Kamado-Grill gearbeitet hat, wird normale Kugelgrills nur noch müde belächeln. Aber ist der Classic II wirklich das Nonplusultra oder doch nur ein teures Outdoor-Deko-Objekt? Design & Verarbeitung – Ein roter Hingucker Der Kamado Joe Classic II kommt in knalligem Rot daher und macht auf der Terrasse ordentlich Eindruck. Die Keramik ist massiv, die Verarbeitung absolut hochwertig, und dank des Edelstahl-Grillrosts ist auch Rost kein Thema. Die Lüftungsschieber aus Aluminium sind präzise einstellbar, und das Scharnier mit Gegengewicht sorgt dafür, dass der schwere Deckel sich kinderleicht öffnen lässt. Funktion & Temperaturkontrolle – Grillen wie ein Pitmaster Ob low & slow bei 110°C oder scharfes Angrillen bei 400°C – mit dem Kamado Joe lässt sich die Temperatur auf den Punkt genau regeln. Das Air Lift Scharnier erleichtert das Handling enorm, und mit dem Divide & Conquer Grillsystem kann man auf mehreren Ebenen grillen oder verschiedene Temperaturzonen schaffen. Übersetzt heißt das: Man kann gleichzeitig ein Steak scharf angrillen und das Gemüse schonend garen. Grill-Nerds lieben sowas. Langlebigkeit – Ein Grill fürs Leben Keramik ist nicht nur hitzebeständig, sondern auch extrem langlebig. Während herkömmliche Grills nach ein paar Jahren durchrosten, kann ein Kamado Joe locker mehrere Jahrzehnte halten – vorausgesetzt, man geht pfleglich mit ihm um. Der Preis – Qualität hat ihren Tarif Hier kommt der Haken: Der Kamado Joe Classic II ist nicht gerade ein Schnäppchen. Wer ihn kauft, investiert in ein High-End-Gerät, das sich für passionierte Griller definitiv lohnt. Wer nur einmal im Jahr Würstchen grillt, könnte sich allerdings fragen, ob ein einfacher Kugelgrill nicht ausreicht. Fazit – Ein Grill für echte Enthusiasten Der Kamado Joe Classic II ist eine Investition in exzellentes Grillen. Perfekte Temperaturkontrolle, erstklassige Verarbeitung und extrem vielseitige Einsatzmöglichkeiten machen ihn zu einem der besten Kamado-Grills auf dem Markt. Der Preis ist hoch, aber für echte BBQ-Fans definitiv gerechtfertigt. Für mich passt das aber und vergebe gerne hier 5 Sterne.
