Kamado Joe Classic II

The Classic II (Kamado Joe now calls it Classic Joe Series II; model KJ23RHC): an 18 inch (46 cm) ceramic charcoal grill on a steel cart with two side shelves. What sets it apart from the Classic I: the Kontrol Tower top vent, the Air Lift hinge, the stainless latch, the wire-mesh gasket, the slide-out ash drawer and the AMP firebox in seven pieces. Pick a job. All sections brings you back here.

Everything follows Kamado Joe's manual (the 2025 edition first, then 2022 and 2019 where they add detail) and Kamado Joe's own videos and pages. Kamado Joe Europe's dealer notes, retailers and owners are named where they are used. The hinge and the bands hold a strong spring: any job that loosens them needs the hinge disengagement kit and two people.
