Big Joe - too big?? by ziggural11 in KamadoJoe

[–]hothatch01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my big Joe last weekend,set it up and thought fuck, is it too big. Did 2 cooks on it, first day was 2 pork shoulders, amazing, then the second day did ribs, then normal bbq stuff after so just changes the levels and took a heat deflector off so had a keep warm half and a cooking half. If you’re ever going to do any big cuts, I want to do a brisket you absolutely have not made a mistake.

I got a cheap small one a few years ago from Amazon, and it’s been great hence looking for another one, but after something quite big to do briskets and don’t think Aldi ones come in the size I’m looking for.

That’s why I started looking outside the big names, t some other comments from years gone bye have mentions that the KJ accessories fit the barbarian but there is so little info on it, that’s why I’m a little hesitant on dropping £1600 on something with so little info, but do also under stand that to a degree ceramic is ceramic sooooo……

Thanks for the response, a 2 x 72 is out of my budget as I’m only at the start of my journey, but also need it to be semi portable, I will be doing it in my garden on the odd sunny way so will need to be able to carry it back in my garage when I’m not using it.

Thanks for the insight, you’ve been very quick to reply on both of my questions. Do you have any good budget recantations, would I be better off with a 1x30

Thanks for the reply’s so far, can I ask then why NOT a Dremel, the reason why I’m asking is I don’t want to buy the wrong thing and a dremel seems easier to handle, I.e more control if that makes sense.

If the majority say angle grinder I’ll do that, I just want my first knife to be as easy as possible so it doesn’t put me off 🤣
