Versatile, precise cooking

• 2-Tier Divide & Conquer cooking system transforms a single grate into multiple usable zones, enabling different foods at different temps at the same time.
• Air Lift Hinge reduces the dome weight, letting you lift the lid with minimal effort for a comfortable grilling experience.
• AMP (Advanced Multi-Panel) FireBox enhances durability and efficiency with a six-piece construction that resists breakage under heat.

• Stainless steel grates promote even heat distribution and long-lasting performance, ready to pair with a wide range of accessories.
• Broad compatibility with Kamado Joe accessories expands your cooking possibilities without compromising core performance.

Real-life cooking scenarios

• Low-and-slow smoking: set the Kontrol Tower to 225F and let the aroma of smoke weave through ribs, brisket, or turkey.
• Direct sear: ramp up for a blistering hot surface that creates caramelized crusts and juicy interiors on steaks or burgers.
• Multi-course meals: use Divide & Conquer to grill vegetables on one level while juicy proteins smoke on another—great for batch cooking.
