Even as a ceramic veteran, this 101 class is the most through and complete "class" you can find on the net for a ceramic cooker. So glad I found your channel while I was doing my research before buying my BGE, yes, even though you showed me that KJ is the better product, I still wanted my XL BGE. With Ceramic Grill Store and learning that KJ accessories fit the egg, I was sold on the green monster, and have loved every minute. You also confirmed that Dalstrong was not just a pretty face, but a great value as well as being a great product. You have saved me a ton of money in not buying stuff and then "upgrading" later.

You have a knack for answering all the questions I have or should have. My first KJ BJ2 shows up Thursday. Already have a host of your recommended accessories and a general approach on how to get started thanks to your videos. Cannot wait for a summer of grilling and Neapolitan pizzas. Was originally looking at stand-alone pizza ovens but thought this looked like a more flexible, expandable, and fun alternative. DoJoe is at the ready!

I really like how you demonstrated your way of placing the deflectors, etc. in place. I would never have figured that out on my own. I have watched a lot of KZfaq videos and yours I believe are among the most professionally done videos that I have viewed. Thank you very much.

This was fantastic content!! Thanks so much. I've applied a lot of your suggestions and techniques over the last couple of years to my current Broil King Keg and it's very transferable, however, I'm about to get a new KJ Big Joe III so I figured a return to the 101 would be really good as I know there are some differences between the ceramics (and slo roller etc) and the all metal construction of the BK Keg. I am feeling VERY confident about using the new KJ when it arrives!! I've also been watching your cart/outdoor kitchen builds as I plan on building something for both the Keg and the Big Joe. You are an indispensable resource! Keep up the amazing work!

Which one do you prefer? Do you like one over the other for different cooking styles (smoking, grilling etc.). I was considering a Traeger but the cost was a really huge drawback, then I found a great deal (at least I thought so) for a brand new KJ that I could not up--its in my garage as of yesterday! I'm excited! I know there are 3 versions of KJ's plus different packages, but I purchased the E16620 (least expensive package and sure of the version #) for $160.00!! $160 was hard to pass and I think was an Awesome deal.

This is exactly the type of content I was looking for, so thank you for putting all the work into doing this. As a novice BBQ'er, I am in the market for a better grille and I'm trying to decide if the KJ fits the needs. With a 45 minute '101' video, I'm feeling a bit discouraged that I need a "PhD in grilling" before I can turn out edible food. I understand BBQing is an art perfected over time, but I also cannot commit an extensive amount of time and money learning this grill. Am I going to be fighting with this thing out of box?

its not as scary as you think, i covered 10 years of learnings and ~20 questions i get most often so its like a dictionary reference.... you don't need to have memorized every word in the english language to communicate, nor do you need to have memorized everything in these videos to start cooking great food. you've got this

Thank you , James ! I love the way you make it fun to use the Kamado grills and your tips . Looks like they will apply for most Kamado grills . I got a great deal on a Primo round grill with the rolling stand . I'm on a fixed income and couldn't afford a new Kamado Joe , Big Green Egg or even the Primo Kamado's . Today I seasoned the grill which helps clean it and it went from starting the coals to 250 degrees Fahrenheit to 500 degrees Fahrenheit in less than 5 minutes , I went to wash my hands and came back and it was over 700 degrees Fahrenheit and it went to over 800 degrees Fahrenheit ! I let it burn about an hour and a half and closed the top vent which was wide open and opened the Daisy wheel a little bit and I couldn't believe how hot it stayed . I closed the bottom vent and then closed the top to try and smother the coals . Tomorrow I will clean the burnt ashes out and I already seasoned the grate . Saturday I will see how good I paid attention to your video . Thanks again , Buddy ! Oh yeah , I saw you win the competition for making the best brisket . Congratulations ! Hats off to the cute little taster ! I subscribed to both of your KZfaq Channels . Always good fun and like you said ; You always learn something new . I'm trying to get my neighbors to do their own Grilling . All they want to do is eat mine . 😄👍 I'll have to teach them what little I know . Just to get started . I'm in a Trailer park and everyone is ; LAZY ! 😂 I can't stand bland food . Thanks for making the videos and taking so much time to make them . Would you have any Bloopers ? It shows everyone we all learn the are hard way . We're not perfect , just having fun learning . 😉

You are a great educator and also an intelligent tinkerer pushing the limits of Kamado grilling with an open minded scientific approach. This is truly refreshing in comparison to most other channels. Having watched many of your videos I feel confident that it won’t take me years to figure out how to achieve amazing results and I have decided to take the plunge with a big joe as the very first purchase for the new house. Double indirect: Here I come. I hope KJ are giving you some good deals for all the revenue you are generating for them.

Have cooked on a Weber kettle for 20 years and made the switch to a KJ Classic III about a 2 weeks ago. This was outstanding and while I already understood the basics I picked up on a number of tips and tricks. Thank you!

Great video James. You gave me the answer to why my 3-2-1 method for ribs fell apart. I was cooking at 325. . . about 50 degrees too high. Other great information, too! Keep 'em coming.

Great work James, much appreciated. Took the big investment route so got a KJ Classic III on its way with all the trimmings; so plenty of smokes, roasts, pizzas, and rotisserie’s to be done, and plenty to be learned

Wow! How helpful! I have a brand new KJIII that I just finished assembling. Having never used a Kamado style grill I have a lot to learn. This is a great foundational video. I appreciate the time that you took to create this and your KJ 101 video series. Subscribed!

I will be attempting my first smoked brisket on my Big Joe and your videos have addressed some of my most pressing concerns. I purchased an almost 15# Prime brisket and am very excited about getting going this week. Thanks for your videos - big help - Harry
