Smart Control Meets Full Kamado Performance

The Kamado Joe Big Joe Konnected 24" Digital Ceramic Grill is a 24-inch ceramic grill built for serious backyard cooking—now enhanced with digital temperature control and automatic fire management. It combines the full capacity of the Big Joe with modern convenience, making it easier than ever to manage long cooks, hold steady temperatures, and dial in results.

Whether you're smoking brisket overnight or grilling for a crowd, the Konnected Joe gives you the flexibility of traditional kamado cooking with the precision of an electronically controlled system.

This is the easiest way to get into kamado cooking—without manually lighting the fire or managing vents.

No lighter, no guesswork—just set your temperature and cook.

Available in one complete configuration:

  • Cart Model: Includes a heavy-duty rolling stand with locking casters, a lower storage shelf, aluminum side shelves, and the integrated Konnected Joe digital control system.
  • Built-In Installation: Not recommended. The Konnected Joe requires increased airflow to properly cool internal electronics. Enclosing the grill on multiple sides can restrict ventilation and impact performance. The included cart provides optimal airflow and clearance.

Third Party Temperature Controllers vs. Konnected

How the Konnected Joe compares to traditional grill-mounted temperature controllers:

  • Both operate through a mobile app
  • Both control grill temperature locally and remotely
  • Both require electricity (wall outlet or 12V DC power source)
  • Konnected Joe includes built-in ignition
  • Konnected Joe can run in full manual mode
  • Third-party controllers can monitor grill and food temperatures*

* Most grill side controllers can run 'manually' to monitor just food temperature - just don't connect the pit (fan) probe.

Konnected Joe Specifications

  • 450 sq. in.
  • Digital + manual temperature control
  • 225°F to 750°F
  • 400+ lbs.

Plan Ahead Before You Buy

The Konnected Joe is a substantial grill. Its size and weight are a major advantage when cooking, but it also means planning ahead for delivery and placement.

Important: Avoid lifting the grill by the hinge. The band system is not designed to support the full weight during lifting.

Use a proper lifting tool like the CGS Chariot to safely move and position your grill.

Pro Tip: Check Facebook Marketplace—many customers use a moving tool once, then resell it.
