Kamado Joe Meets The Weber Summit Charcoal Grill (A Cook Using Jealous Devil Charcoal) 

I just order mine Weber summit water is coming out of my mouth watching your video’s keep up the good Work verry inspiring 👍👍👍👍

Brilliant! I’ve just ordered the Weber kamado and this setup looks perfect 👌🏼

That’s a great idea. Thanks for that. I went from a kamado joe 1 to the Weber kamado like yours. I have always missed the versatility of the joe. But also like the ease of the Weber kamado. Wish Weber would step up and add these items.

Thank you, that is an excellent idea! I have been grilling on my Summit Kamado for a year now and have been using the diffuser plate that comes with it for this type of reverse sear grilling/smoking. When you want to move to searing you first have to move the grate away, that's where the stainless table comes handy. Not an issue. The diffuser plate is another story, better use some kind of pliers, i use insulated welding gloves made out of thick leather and with them you need to work quickly not to burn yourself. Everything so far is doable but if you can avoid it, why not. After this you'll end up with charcoal a bit far from the grate for my taste. It works but it could get better and you don't get grill marks from the grill grate. I have tried to lift the charcoal grate to the upper step by poking my grill tongs through the coals in the middle and grabbing but it's a risky move. Your method gets rid of all the hassle. Everything is there, you have the indirect zone and you also have a thick cast iron grate close to the coal for proper sear marks. I bet it's fairly hot already before you start to raise the temperature in the end. Well done.

I’ve bitten the bullet Paul and bought the KJ sear grate and a Big Joe upper grate. Weber sent me a deflector with no holes in, with the Summit, then the correct one, so instead of buying the half moons, I’m cutting the spare deflector plate Weber sent me in half to save seventy quid.

Well done 👍. Not the steaks ( cooked perfect)🥩, the cook. Looks amazing. Great job 👏

Ohh man you cooked those to perfection. Thanks for the shout out polly. Your vids are always educational. 👌

Never thought of the cast iron low down. Great idea. The soapstone apparently works well.

Thanks for the video. I bought all the gadgets you showed. I also bout the Divide and Conquer rack. I modified it to work. It allows you to use both heat deflector halves in an in between height compared the the included deflector. Thanks again. I would have never thought of it.

This video answered a few questions I had and hadn’t even thought of yet. Great job

Great video Paul I’ve been thinking of getting the Weber Kamado as well and this morning was wondering if there were accessories that would work. Definitely a shout out to the folks at The Vaughan location that’s my go to shop.

That setup is cool and that steak looked great! Results don’t lie!

Thanks for this video. I love experimenting with different configurations and this helps me with trying to mimic the SNS "turbo slow" method by using my slow n' sear with the Kamado Joe Big Joe Half Grate. Also have been experimenting with the Vortex Mini as well. If you try these out, make a video and see how you like it.

Great idea and video!

*insert mouth watering here* good job buddy

Dig that setup up! Ribeye looked slamming! Thanks for sharing Paul! Have a great one, you all stay safe!👍👊🍻🍺

Awesome tips! and finished product! To confirm, the cast iron grate is classic joe (18") and the deflector is for big joe (24")?

This really should be standard on the Weber. It's so obvious to be able to sear off your steaks like that.

Great set up!!🔥🔥

That's an awesome set up Paul! And the food looks Delicious!

Great video! Question, was the lump charcoal positioned only under the cast iron grate, just to that one side, or did you spread the charcoal evenly, even under the ceramic deflector?

I love your setup, well copy that👍

Super cool! Would like to have seen how much charcoal you were using.

Very cool video. Nicely done man.....👍

Does the one classic Joe cast iron moves at all? Even when trying to clean it? It looks like the deflector for the big Joe sits higher than the cast. Just wanna make sure it doesn’t slide out of place falling in the center! Want to do this to my summit. Used to have the KBJ and love this style of set up!

Just curious what are the advantages of this over just putting one charcoal holder at the higher level for the slow/sear? The cast iron grate?

Good job Paul! Made me want a steak tonight but I already have burgers defrosted. Babybacks on the pellet grill tomorrow with homemade potato salad and baked beans, Independence Day for us Yanks.

Have you thought about the Slo Roller with the Summit? Would be interested to see if that would work...

Great informative video! Wonder if you tried / know if dojoe- Kamado Joe Pizza oven attachment works too? Thx.

Fantastic Paul! That thumbs down vote is from a vegetarian

Great video!! 🥩👍

Perfect, I appreciate your adventure. We’re your coals evenly distributed or we’re they biased towards the open grill side? This inquiring mind is curious if the Big Joe Do-Jo is amenable to the same adaptation procedure that was so absolutely effective to fit the Big Joe-tisserie to my Summit. Next time you pop into Dickson Barbeque how ‘bout a li’l more trial “guzinta” to evaluate that modifications effectiveness. Either way, thanks for bringing us along. Norm

Interesting setup! Does the upper Big Joe stainless steel half moon grate stay in place or does it fall into the bowl if moved?

I just got the kamado e6, do you know if the joetisserie work on this one? Thanks

Good looking steak. You make me regret moving to an apartment. Not allowed to have charcoal grills. Well, when the sink drain rusted out wasn’t my problem to fix. Some advantages as well as disadvantages. That charcoal seems like really good stuff. Is it fairly easy to control your temps?

I was just wondering if you have ever thought of doing some other types of meat, maybe a whole pig, or a rack of lamb, or maybe some venison or the ever popular turducken

Creative! Nice! How does this compare to the usual two zone setup with the charcoal banked on one side (using the upper fuel grate position)?

I just ordered the parts minus the deflector. Does the heat deflector help?

So I wonder if the joetisserie for the big joe would fit well on this? 🤔 Think they’d unbox that and set it on top to see? Lol

Another very helpful video. Thanks. I am waiting for delivery of my Weber Kamado E6. I think you dual cooking zone setup is great. I have one concern with regard to the new Weber heat deflector for the E6 (with holes, not hinged). How do you add more fuel to an existing cook? I know charcoal lasts a long time, but the wood chunks probably burn much more quickly and provide the smoke flavor. How do I get to the fuel area after the cook has started? Or am I missing something? Thanks.

Will most of the kamado joe big joe accessories fit on the weber summit/kamado being they are in the 24" class of kamados?

Try the soap stone for searing amazing!

Да, тема работоспособная. Вполне удобная для практики. Когда не меняя решёток, можно пользоваться как прямым, так и не прямым жаром, в том числе можно и коптить.И это всё, не меняя конфигурации в решётках. Отлично!!! Лайк однозначно.

why is your hinge sounds like that is it rusty or just needs oil or something?

Does the Joetisserie and Doejoe work on the Weber Kamado?

I already own a wsm. Would you recommend i purchase a kettle to go with it or simply sell it abd buy a summit?

Which one of your grills gets the best smokey flavors?

Do you leave your steaks on or off the grill while the grill temperature rises for searing? How long does it take?

You burned the shit out of those steaks.

Can’t see fire.

Never Ever Ever cut meat, cooked or uncooked on a wood board. As a healthcare practitioner in my professional life, I can tell you and your subscribers that this will absolutely end with a visit to the ER for treatment for gastrointestinal bacterial infection. Otherwise, I enjoyed your video!

You should be embarrassed. Stealing from one company to support a inferior product is downright disgusting. Don’t get me wrong, I love whoever grills however, it is not a Kamado Joe. And the differences are not disputable. You should feel ashamed. I am disgusted and I will never watch another one of your videos!!!!!!
