I've unlocked all 5 skills because I found your channel a few years ago. There is no better Kamado or BBQ channel on YouTube. I've directed my friends with Kamados to watch your videos in order to level up their skills.

I’m recently divorced and always had my husband grill. Yet he always burnt the food. So when he took our old grill, I did a lot of research and purchased my first grill and went with a Kamado Big Joe Classic lll. I love smoked and seared and it seemed to have everything I needed for a beginner. Your channel has helped me so much. Thank you.

[hanktrantham]

You may be known as “smoking dad” but after years of watching you and following your tips you would be better described as Kamado King! Your tips are dead on and always helpful. I started 12 years ago with a Vision Pro, then went to a Yoder YS 480 and this year to a BJ3, and every video you do, I learn something! Keep helping us along…..I just hate you’re not my neighbor.

[henrykrinkle]

They only need to listen to you, James, for the real scoop on Kamado cooking. Your vids have served me well since starting my journey. Many thanks and keep on cooking!🧑‍🍳

[OneBaldingWookiee]

Yes!!! Another video to watch several times. KJC3 owner here, one week in so far. First cook was pizza and wow wow wow. This weekend will be spatchcock chicken. Working the courage up to a brisket. Thank you for sharing your wisdom in these awesome vids.

[isabelg]

You are the absolute best! Been cooking on kamados for 20 years now, but am learning so much from you! Just upgraded to a Classic III and need to learn how to use the slo roller and joetisserie. Thank you for all your work!

[herb]

EXCELLENT material & info here even for an old dog such as myself.Never hurts to go back and brush up on the basics.a sincere THANK YOU

[Gemitaur]

Congratulations! I took all your tips and lessons then risked it. I cooked 3 briskets equaling 23 lbs plus all the full meal trimmings for 60 seniors. Everything was eaten right down to the last slice of brisket. It was like watching seagulls on bread. Everyone raved about it. Thank you for the lessons.

I've unlocked all 5 skills because of your teachings. Because of two great deals, I bought a new Classic III, 50% off, with most of the goodies (Joetisseri, etc) and a new Joe Jr, 65% off, back in November. I was very blessed and have had so much fun and great food since then. My wife and I judge bbq on the Memphis in May circuit and so have quite a bit of smoking and grilling experience with various cookers. I'll have to say that I should have bought a Kamado Joe years ago but now have them thanks to you. By the way, we had Joetisseri chicken wings last night and a Joetisseri Rib Roast last week. So Thank you James. 😋👍😇

[chrisgibbs]

Just got my first Kamado Joe. I've been studying all of these videos for about 2 weeks now. I can't wait to get started cooking! Thanks James!

[williamwilson]

Great tips, James. I bought a Kamado Joe last year, and you haven't steered me wrong yet. Thank you.

[smokingtarheel]

Great tips for beginners and experts alike! Double indirect rocks!

[AshSmith-sd]

Just purchased my big Joe 3 waiting on delivery can’t wait coming from a master touch Weber

[erikpalmqvist]

James! Watching your videos for a long time inspired me to get a big Joe series one and with your help my first cook was the 101 ribs and they were fantastic!!
Thank you for guidance and inspiration - and as was written previously - maybe you should change then name of the channel to "Kamado King"!
Greetings from Sweden!

[admranger]

I have some dark rum that will be my flambé alcohol on my next ribeye. Using the soap stone as a searing stone was never in my thoughts until now. Can't wait to try it!

[pavelsavov]

James-currently the best, soon to be a legend! Thanks for everything!

[GlennJanssen]

Really fun video, James! Sent this to my best friend who recently started cooking on a kamado :).

[poorman]

😊
Love this video absorbing all the knowledge like a sponge. Talk to you soon James excellent video keep going.

[andythedrew]

Hey James love the videos. I've been watching videos thinking of getting a kamado joe..coming from a weber kettle but need more real estate for cooking and looking at trying bigger/ long cook like a brisket. Opened my eyes to some new things like burying wood chunks instead putting on top

[AnAsianGuy]

The irony is when I first got my Kamado, I went straight into making a brisket following one of your vids on it and it came out really good!
