The Kamado Joe Big Joe I is a premium ceramic charcoal grill designed to offer an unparalleled outdoor cooking experience. Its generous size, combined with innovative features such as the Divide & Conquer cooking system and patented ash box, make it ideal for large gatherings or for those who enjoy outdoor cooking with friends and family. Its heat retention capacity and precise temperature control ensure exceptional results with every use.
Ample cooking space
With a cooking surface of 0.29 m² (61 cm diameter), the Big Joe I provides enough space to prepare a variety of dishes at the same time. This makes it the perfect choice for family events, get-togethers with friends or celebrations where you need to cook for many people. Whether you’re preparing a generous amount of ribs, grilling several cuts of meat or cooking different types of food at once, this grill has the space to do it effortlessly.
Unmatched versatility
The unique Divide & Conquer two-tier cooking system offers unprecedented versatility. Its half-moon design allows the grates to be used at different heights and temperatures, meaning you can cook a pizza on one level while slow-roasting meat on another. This system transforms the grill rack into a multi-compartment cooker, allowing you to experiment with different cooking styles and techniques without the need for multiple pieces of equipment. With this level of control, you can prepare complete meals, from appetizers to the main course, simultaneously and effortlessly.
Exceptional heat retention
The Big Joe I ‘s premium ceramic construction not only ensures even heat distribution, but also retains heat for extended periods of time, making it ideal for both slow grilling and fast cooking. This ceramic material is highly resistant to temperature variations, which means you can use the grill all year round without worrying about damage. In addition, the ceramic helps to keep moisture in the food, providing juicy meats and perfectly cooked vegetables every time.
Precise temperature control
One of the most important aspects of any grill is airflow management, and the Big Joe I ‘s cast iron top duct facilitates precise temperature control. Thanks to this duct, you can easily regulate the airflow, allowing you to maintain a constant temperature throughout the cooking process. This is ideal both for recipes that require constant low heat and for those that need a high temperature for short periods of time. The ability to adjust and maintain a stable temperature makes the difference between a well-cooked meal and an extraordinary one.
Quick and easy cleaning
The patented sliding ash box is one of the most appreciated features of the Big Joe I, as it makes post-cooking cleaning considerably easier. Unlike other grills where cleaning the ashes can be a tedious task, this system allows you to easily remove the box, empty it and replace it in a matter of minutes. Keeping your grill clean not only prolongs its lifespan, but also improves performance with every use, ensuring you can enjoy the same flawless cooking experience time after time.
Extra convenience
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) side shelves add a level of convenience that any griller will appreciate. They offer extra space for preparing food, organising utensils or keeping ingredients handy while cooking. Best of all, these shelves are collapsible, so they don’t take up unnecessary space when not in use. This clever design maximises functionality without compromising practicality, making the Big Joe I as useful as it is spacious.
Durable, heavy-duty stainless steel cooking grids
Stainless steel cooking grids are not only heat resistant, but also durable and easy to clean. Thanks to their high corrosion resistance, these grates can withstand years of use without showing signs of wear. In addition, stainless steel ensures even heat distribution across the entire cooking surface, which helps food to cook evenly. These grates are ideal for both high-performance grills and for those who simply want a hassle-free cooking experience.
Ideal for large events and outdoor entertaining
With a width of 147.3 cm, a height of 129.5 cm, and a weight of 160 kg, the Big Joe I is a robust grill designed for those with considerable outdoor space, such as gardens, patios or decks.
