Thanks for the great video. Nice introduction to the "Jr". I've just aquired one and am looking forward to using it. I'm a pellet and gas grill guy but really want something I can get the charcoal smoke flavor. My concern with the Jr. is can I get a slow smoke, 220c, long enough to finish up say a 8 lb. port butt.

I love how authenticly this video was produced. Thx for the great team work.

Nice Job Airman.

Good info 😊 you look like Tom Brady 😂 use degreaser spray the dome make it red ❤

I know this is an older video, but you have sold me on the Joe Jr. thanks.

Appreciate this detailed video for KJ Jr. novices like myself and what you’ve learned. Haven’t found another video that explains starting on the KJ Jr. so thoroughly. 👍

Center your grill grate.

Thanks man. Good, real world info.

I didn’t catch what temp you were running. Ill run 230 to 260 and there perfect in 3 hours. I do like the the drip tray pie pan for the veggies with the meat basted goodness. Now im going to see what else your up to. I dont have a Joe jr yet but I have a couple other Joes.

pumice stone

How tall is the table? Is it necessary for the top to be in marble or is it also good in wood?

Thank you for the vids sir. Tbh, as a beginner into kamados, I almost regretted ordering my incoming KJ Jr (and actually using it aside from chicken) since Joe Junior vids are pretty sparse. Looking more forward to using it and even getting a Flameboss myself.

Is the Kamado frost proof or do you cover it or store it indoors for winter? Thanks

I was a kcbs competitor and judge, once the kids graduated college we decided to move, I gave away all my smoking equipment to friends and have been analyzing the purchase of one last smoker to take me and my wife home. Your videos convinced me that smoker was a KJ Jr, arrived yesterday, re-watched all your videos in anticipation of my first cook. I love your presentation style: no nonsense, thoughtful and intelligent. Not sure if you are disappointed about the relatively small number of subscribers but your insights have helped 1000s of people, I hope you'll continue to publish updates about the smoker in general and your experience cooking other meats. Best and God bless.

Nice video. I just recently did a similar setup with the classic iii for smoker and the jr for daily or high temps

YOU NEED A NEW CAMERA MAN SORRY ❗️👈🏽🤗

Nice Brian Shaw reference!

That blower... Thats what ive been missing... But hell for the price of that ill just buy a damn side by side smoker

Just found your junior vid mate. Are these grills made in the US? Just over here in the UK, they are like £120 more expensive than the USA. Liking the hat too, try and find one with nough ear cover is hard work for some reason lol.

It is pumice stone.

Wow! How much charcoal!? You covered all the air holes on the fire box….. regardless it worked so fair play 👍

Everything you tried ended up being a failure. Just get a Traeger Grill.

I just got the Jr. I am actually in the same situation. I have a big metal egg but it too big for small family. Jr kamado is perfect for fast small portoins grilling. Thanks for all the tips.

Video says more about your wife willing to stand in the snow for you than it does about brisket smoking.

Don’t u have to soak the wood a few minutes/hours ?

Very honest opinions, I just got one of these grills and I appreciate your info so much!

Thank you, bought the jr and this was helpful.

Thanks for the video.

good vid dood!!

Hey Tyler...get your lovely 'other half' to say Hi... She's always laughing and recording the video and deserves some credit ! 🤣 On a more serious note does the Flame Boss really work well? I have partyQ from a wsm and wondered how it would work ? Thanks

Have you tried lighting with a heat gun? $20 and it works great.

Thanks for your video! I,ve had the Joe Jr for 14 months now and I like a lot. I also use the Kick Ash basket and I find that the bottom of grill get´s very hot. To avoid this, I leave about a 1/4 inch of ash on the bottom. Ash is a very good insulator from my experience of pellet and wood chip boilers. Another trick that I use is to put the cast iron grate between the deflector plate and a drip pan. This reduces somewhat the temperature of the drip pan. You can also use a small , 6 inch, aluminium pie form on top of the cast iron grate and put your Beer Can Chicken in it. This works very well. In Fireboard 2 Drive, you can limit the fan's capacity to, for example, 25% so as not to exceed the desired target temperature. Do you not have that possibility in your regulator? BR from Sweden

The Kamado Joe Jr videos are helping a lot. Thanks

Nice video, appreciate it!

Good to see you post another video again. Watching your videos convinced me to get the Joe jr almost 2 years ago.

This great. I got a Joe Jr. for Christmas and I haven’t fired it up yet. We live in central PA and it is 9 degrees out with 2 feet of snow. But seeing you with a wool coat and wool hat has inspired me. I also subscribed so I can see all of your early videos to guide my efforts and learn from them. I too purchased the KickAsh tray and I’m waiting for the Soap Stone to arrive. Thanks for sharing your evolution as a pit master.

Great video! I've had the Joe Jr for about a year now and used one of your original video to get me started. Interesting to see you've stopped using the charcoal chimney. I find it a bit fiddly and quite smokey and was thinking of trying something else too. Also I don't use the charcoal basket so might give that a try 👍

I really appreciate this video. I was listening to your tips while I was carefully unboxing our new KJ Jr. 😄👍🏾

New sub here! Cool shirt, homie! I’m a Sith as well…my sith name is Darth Strife! Smoke on, my fellow Sith Lord! Lol!

What temp?

Approximately how many minutes did you slow cook with heat deflector?

Love the videos. Keep up the good work. 👍

Dude… make some more videos

Good job. I have added a junior to my classic and this helped sanity check some of my approach. Not sure I see the need for the chimney personally but I appreciate your experience. Not enough videos on this topic. Thanks.

Good videos! What temp did you use to cook the chicken?

Nice vid. informative. Like you, I have a KJ Classic and Jr., still getting used to the Jr. For temp regulation, I have an iKamand and absolutely love it. I've read many negative reviews of the iKamand, but no...it works just fine, and no need to make any mods to the vent. I'm trying to hold off on buying one for the Jr. (kinda defeats the less expensive pricing) and learn to manage the cook with the vents. Regardless another couple of recommended accessories: cowhide gloves to handle coal, hot utensils etc; and a bluetooth compartment and meat temperature monitor. So far, I'm a fan of the KJ products...not hating, but a more affordable option vs. the BGE. Nonetheless, each are excellent at what they do.

The whole secret is to start a proper fire. Start your fire in the grill, drop the chimney. I have one and started using it, but there is no need for it. It's just something American you don't need. Make sure your coals are touching well for slow transfer as you cook on for a long time. There is a sequence you should use. Start the fire in the grill with no stone or grill in it and the lid open, when you establish fire right across the bottom, put in your stone and grill, shut the lid, leave the top damper wide open until you see 125degrees C, close wide open to the holes wide open, wait till you see 150C. Close the bottom damper to 12mm open, close the top damper to a 1/4 🌒 moon, put your food in now. You will see the temp fall back to 125C. You will now have a stable fire that will last for hrs with very little adjustment. If the sun comes across your grill, be careful. If you are cooking in the sun, dial back the start temps 10C. That's it.

I love your video!!! Kind of sad that you stopped making them :( can you come back please?

Thank you. I got a picnic to begging you dog show. Pop in the Jeep. Can I ask you how you get your gazebo not blow away. I got one of these for over the grill. Live in Ireland it's wet and windy a lot of the time. Nice grill station
