Controlling The Temperature - Kamado Joe Grill Owner's Manual

CONtROLLiNg thE tEMPERAtURE

Controlling the temp-
erature inside
Kamado Joe is as simple
as controlling the air flow
through the Kamado
Joe using your top and
bottom air vents. The
air flow through your
Kamado Joe cooker is
illustrated in the diagram
on the right.
The more open the vents,
the more air that will be
allowed to flow through
the cooker and the hotter
the temperature will be.
The opposite is also true.
The more closed you
keep the vents the lesser
the air flow and the lower
the temperature.
You can use the following vent adjustment guide for approximate top
and bottom vent settings for various temperatures and foods. The more
experience you have using your Kamado Joe cooker, the easier it will be
for you to adjust the vents to get the desired cooking temperature inside
the dome. The thermometer located in the dome of your Kamado Joe
will give you a precise temperature reading of the temperature inside the
dome. When cooking, make sure you check the temperature every 30
minutes and make the necessary vent adjustments in order to maintain
the desired temperature.
ADVISORY: Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry,
seafood, shellfish or eggs may increase your risk of foodborne
illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions.
