I relocated from Northern VA to SC last year after retiring a second time. I gave the movers my Classic 1. Left me with my Big Joe 3 and Joe Jr. After a month I purchased a Weber to do augment my Kamados. Grilled some good food but not the same. I love the stronger Weber flavor but my ribs just isn’t as juicy as on my Kamados plus I missed my Classic because it was my workhorse.

My Classic 2 arrived Tuesday, fired it up yesterday and we enjoyed the ribs I grilled yesterday, using Apple wood. Took the Weber to my brother. Love the Classic because it’s the right size. I’m back with my 3 Kamado Joes and it’s gonna stay that way.

    As someone looking to jump in, I’ve been eyeing the BJ3 but you like the classic 2 more. I’ve got fomo about size, particularly for a full size brisket. If you had to have only one I’m assuming you’d go classic?
