Weber Smokey Joe

Very cute sized bbq – The size & portability of the BBQ is very user friendly. However, it seems like it takes a long time to heat up food with the coal as it is so far away from the grill. When you try to cook the food by putting the lid on, the fire just goes out. We tried to use it once but it took so long we ended up taking the food back to cook on the pan in the kitchen. We have yet to use it again. Show details

Love it – Love my recently purchased portable smokey joe bbq. Went into the store and fell in love with it , great quality, perfect size for a family gathering at home or at the park. Fits in the boot easy. Quality is worth paying, i got it on special at the time.  Show details

Love it! – Love my Smokey Joe. We moved from the country to a small city apartment and I missed BBQ's soooo much, the stove top just isn't the same. This is so easy to use for basic snags and burgers and my partner has smoked some amazing meats using this. We only have a very small balcony but Smokey Joe has allowed us to be able to BBQ regardless of living in a small apartment with no back yard.  Show details

Love This BBQ – This completely suits me as I have limited space and I love traditional barbecues. I can get the juiciest most perfectly cooked steaks on this. I just cant see how a gas one could ever come close. I enjoy the routine of getting the charcoal fired up and relaxing with a coldie until the temperature is just right. It is small and packs away neatly when i am done. Top little barbie.  Show details

This is perfect – This product is really too good. It is not a big barbecue, but it doesn't bother to use it lightly with my friends. Others don't know, but it's hard to clean the glass plate, so I buy the glass plate in Daiso and use it and throw it away.^^ I want to use a new one, but it's a secret that it's not broken.  Show details

Great, but expensive – Bought a jumbo joe as a gift and will now buy one for myself. Good construction, small enough to easily move/store/clean, but big enough to do roasts on. Handy that the lid can rest in the handle while cooking as a sort of wind shield. Weber are really the only choice for (decent) charcoal cookers in Australia which I guess is why they are hideously overpriced  Show details

Good for travelling – Having owned the larger 22” one for a long time I wanted to have a smaller one that I could use when grilling just for me and this is perfect. In fact assembly is a breeze took minutes to put together. I’m able to use less charcoal with a little less depth between the charcoal grate and the grillling surface I can get away with 12-16 briquettes… Read more

rather than 25-30 built into a hefty mound and it is small enough and light enough to allow it to be easily transported. The only flaw is the grilling rack doesn’t have any handle to lift it on and off but it is minor.

Pretty good compact size BBQ – Great for two people sized meals, easy enough to carry around. Great smokey flavour on meat, enough space for a decent sized BBQ for a couple. Easy enough to use for the average Joe, just make sure you have e a chimney starter. Cleaning is a pain however, needs a bit of scrubbing  Show details

So portable and easy to use – Had this bbq for a few years and it’s a great size for 2-4 people. It’s also easily transportable and portable as it can easily fit in the boot. We love using charcoal for the taste but other bbqs are hard to clean but the 2 layer trays make it very simple to just put it in the dishwasher.  Show details ·  1

Weber Jumbo Joe – Three months into ownership of the Weber Jumbo Joe and so far it has done every asked of it. Philosophy behind purchase of the Jumbo was we still wanted to be able to cater for 4 of us and maybe 6 in a pinch with roasting but also not have the BBQ sitting outdoors or taking up to much precious shed space. Big ticks on both counts, one review we… Read more ·  1

read stated that large chickens will foul on the lid "excuse the pun" but I have had no such problem and have even roasted 6 kilo beef rolls without problem. When used as an open charcoal BBQ you will take care of a footy team and their friends no worries if you keep it hot and fast.

So far have only used charcoal which is as Weber intended, will do everything the same as a full size kettle. In my opinion if you aren't over catering this little gem will accommodate you and yours with honors.

Compact & TASTY – Bought this a few years ago for the size as we wanted a mini portable charcoal grill. This is great as its small and can still do the job. Webers are amazing if you know how to use them. Make sure you read reviews of how to use and you'll learn so much and its heaps of fun. It's all about experimenting with the BBQ and knowing the limits and your… Read more ·  1

surroundings. Loved it so much we bought a full size Webber Kettle and use that regularly to smoke, BBQ steak, Oysters, Fish, Beef Brisket (Slow Cooked), Beer can Chicken. I've even seen people cook waffles on this. GET ONE.

Excellent – I got this bbq as a christmas present last year. It's one of the best presents i have ever gotten. It is perfect to take to picnics. You get amazing tasting sausages and meat using coal! This thing is such a gem. It's easy to set up, easy to cook with, easy to clean. I like that it is sturdy despite the small size. The size would make it suitable… Read more ·  1

for 2-4 people. We are only 2 so it's perfect for us. Highly recommended. Small and compact, cooks well, relatively easy to clean, easy to use and maintain Non to mention
