Kamado Joe 18" Red Classic Joe II Stand-Alone Ceramic Kamado Charcoal Grill

We’ve all been there: in the middle of something you love doing, only to be frustrated by the quality of a tool. Maybe it doesn’t break. But it doesn’t work like it could. That was our realization about grilling. We loved it. We did it all the time. But weekend after weekend, we’d find ourselves disappointed by our grills and tools. We knew there was a better way—which is what inspired us to design and develop a better grill. Kamado Joe® isn’t just a line of products. It’s what happens when two guys who love to grill get serious about creating the world’s best ceramic cooker. Better quality. Smarter features. More innovative accessories. That’s the story of Kamado Joe®.

Passion

The heart of our business isn’t a business. It’s a community of people who love the same thing everyone in our company loves: cooking outside with and for our friends and family. That passion is a fire that fuels us everyday in everything we do.

Quality

Crafted to perform better and last longer. That’s the simple, uncompromising quality standard that drives everything we do at Kamado Joe®—from design to production. Our goal is simple: that each product bearing our name becomes a trusted part of exceptional grilling experiences.

Innovation

From our earliest days, our focus was on solving problems others hadn’t or couldn’t so that people could get more out of grilling. We don’t settle. It’s a commitment that’s clear in everything from the features of our flagship grills to the size of our massive lump charcoal.
