The Kamado Joe Classic Joe I smokes low and slow from 107°C (225°F) and sears at up to 400°C (750°F), all over charcoal, on a 46cm ceramic grill that sits in its own cart with locking wheels.
It grills, smokes, roasts and bakes on a 46cm stainless steel grate, 1,717 sq cm in total. The two-tier Divide & Conquer system splits the cooking space into half-moon racks at different heights, so a roast and corn on the cob can cook on the upper tier while meat sears over the coals below. With the ceramic heat deflectors in, the same grill turns to slow, indirect cooking for smoking and roasting.
The thick ceramic body holds heat steadily through a long smoke or a high-heat sear. Airflow is set at the cast iron top vent, and the built-in thermometer reads in °C and °F, with the smoking, roasting and searing ranges marked, so the temperature can be adjusted with the dome shut. Ash drops into the patented slide-out ash drawer, which pulls out through a sliding door in the base.
The grill sits in a cart with locking wheels and folding powder-coated steel side shelves for prep space. It is supplied with stainless steel cooking grates, two half-moon ceramic heat deflectors and an ash tool.
