Fuel
EssentialLump charcoal
Supermarket briquettes give smoke and ash; a kamado is built for large lumps that burn for hours. Marabu is the classic choice — hard wood, little ash, and what is left over gets reused next time.

Kamado Joe
Joe Jr.
The real brand, at the size of a side table
€449.00
Too few measurements yetWe have only recently started tracking this price. Once we have measured enough days, this will say whether now is a good moment.
The Joe Jr. is a full Kamado Joe that happens to be small. The same thick ceramic, the same airflow control with the cast iron bottom vent and the Kontrol Tower on top, and the same accessory programme — only at thirty-four centimetres.
That makes it the only compact here where you give nothing up on build. It is also why it costs two to three times what an own-brand compact does: you are paying for the ceramic and the hardware, not for the size.
Watch what you order. The same Joe Jr. is sold on its own, as a Complete Set with a stand, and as a Celebration Pack, with well over two hundred euros between cheapest and dearest. Below is which barcode belongs to which.
Who it suits: Anyone who wants the brand’s build quality without the room — or the budget — for a Classic.

The same kamado, different configuration
These versions are the same kamado in a different make-up — usually with or without a stand, sometimes with accessories added. Prices vary widely and the cheapest is not always the bare one, so it pays to look at all of them.

This is what we know for certain. Measurements the manufacturer or the shop does not state are left out rather than estimated — a grate size or a weight that is not there is one we do not have.

Accessories that fit this kamado
Picked on this kamado’s size, material and brand
Fuel
EssentialFirelighters
Wood-wool lighters rather than fluid or chemical cubes. Lighter fluid is something you taste for the first hour, and in a kamado that flavour sits in the ceramic where it does not come out again.

Measuring
RecommendedMeat thermometer
The gauge in the lid measures the air at the top of the dome, not the meat and not the grate. For anything taking more than an hour, core temperature is the only number that counts.

Protection
RecommendedCover 13–15 inch
Ceramic copes with frost, but the hardware and hinges do not cope with months of rain. At this size a cover is the cheapest maintenance there is.

Maintenance
RecommendedAsh tool
Ash in the base blocks the bottom vent, and a kamado that gets no air holds no temperature. A hook that reaches the back of the firebox is the difference between two minutes of work and half a teardown.

Maintenance
Can waitGasket felt
The felt between dome and base wears, and a kamado drawing air past the lid can no longer be held at a low setting. This is the part that comes due after a few years, and it is replaceable without tools.

Baking
Can waitPizza stone (Kamado Joe)
A kamado reaches the temperature that cooks a pizza in three minutes without effort; what is missing is a stone that bakes the base along with it. This one is cut to the Classic size.
