Improve Airflow, Control Heat & Simplify Cleanup

Upgrade your Kamado Joe with charcoal baskets and dividers designed to improve airflow, make ash cleanup easier, and give you better control over your fire. Whether you're cooking on a Big Joe, Classic Joe, or Joe Jr., these simple upgrades help your grill perform more consistently and efficiently.

Charcoal baskets hold lump charcoal in the firebowl, allowing air to circulate for a cleaner burn and quicker startup. Dividers section the charcoal to create two-zone cooking, giving you the ability to run direct and indirect heat at the same time.

Designed for Big Joe, Classic Joe & Joe Jr.

Each grill size uses a dedicated charcoal basket sized to fit—there’s no sizing guesswork. Just select your grill.
