Kamado Joe Classic III Ceramic 18-Inch Kamado Grill
Kamado Joe introduces the third generation of their Classic series kamado grills with the Classic III. The Kamado Joe Classic III Ceramic Kamado Grill is 18-inches in diameter and is constructed of a thick-walled, heat-resistant ceramic shell that helps to lock in smoke and moisture while grilling. The included Divide & Conquer cooking system is composed of a 3-tiered rack setup that holds up to four additional half moon grates and allows for a larger cooking area up to 510 sq. inches. It also allows varying height levels for different temperature ranges giving you the ability to grill whatever you want however you want.
This generation of kamados now comes with a SloRoller hyperbolic insert, developed by researchers at Harvard, which provides even distribution of heat and smoke by promoting a rolling and recirculating flow inside the kamado. The hyperbolic insert is removable and can be placed on the heavy-duty galvanized steel cart under the kamado when not desired to be used. The Amp firebox is made of high-fire, heat-resistant ceramic plates that are capable of resisting damage and breakage from high heat and stress. Sitting atop of the firebox is the 304 stainless steel charcoal basket that allows for easy cleanup and conservation of unused charcoal by quickly sifting ash between the basket bars. Once the ash is sifted, the slide out 304 stainless steel ash drawer gives a means of effortless removal.

At the top of the Classic III is the powder coated cast aluminum Kontrol Tower top vent that provides precision temperature control by controlling the air flow through the kamado and stays on its current setting even while opening and closing the lid. The Air Lift Hinge makes opening and closing the lid a breeze by reducing roughly 96 percent of the weight of the lid. The Classic III also comes equipped with powder coated aluminum side shelves, an analog thermometer, a 304 stainless steel latch and firebox ring, a wire mesh fiberglass gasket, grate gripper, an ash cleaning tool, 3 tiered cooking rack, 2 half moon cooking grids, 2 half moon heat deflectors, a SloRoller insert, and a Cart.

To use this immediately, there is undoubtedly a learning curve. Although they heat differently, ceramic grills are hotter and retain heat longer. Watch some educational films and observe what others are doing as a favour to yourself. Order arrived on time and the customer service was great.

This is excellent for grilling steaks, burgers, and other meats. The size of this grill is ideal for our family, and it truly accomplishes a lot more than standard grills.

The build quality is excellent. I use this frequently for grilling steaks, smoking briskets, and preparing breakfasts. It’s also a beautiful garden adornment. Many accessories, all excellent. Strongly recommended.
