Brisket On The Goldens' Cast Iron Kamado



The Goldens’ Cast Iron Kamado Promises Kamado Efficiency Thanks to its 460lbs of USA Cast Iron… BUT Is that always a good thing? Brisket can tell you a LOT about how efficient a grill is & how clean it smokes, so as part of finding out what tweaks might help (if needed) with smoke performance I am cooking my first brisket on the Goldens’ Cast Iron Kamado.

Thanks to the team @ Gospel BBQ for providing a Golden’s Cast Iron Kamado for me to test. Say thanks after todays video by checking them out at –

  1. Do you know what pan height works with Kamado Joe Classic II and the slow roller. Smokeware has a 1 3/8” height pan and kick ass pan is 1 5/8” with feet according to the email I received back from Kick Ass. Of course I would prefer the pan with feet but is 1 5/8” too high?

  2. In my previous education in thermodynamics, I remember reading somewhere that heat will clean smoke to a point that it'll remove "impurities". So having the wood underneath the charcoal might be cleaning the smoke too good. Just some brain droppings on my part

  3. Thanks for doing this video as it comes out the box. I bet your fixes from past cooking improvements will help improve the flavor. Hands down, it is very hard to beat a wood fire smoke to cook with. Nice to know about the new kick ash pan too. See you next time. Thanks Sarah for doing the taste test.

  4. I always love your method and product comparisons. Thanks for another!
    Every now and then I like to leave a comment hoping you’ll do a Smokey Mountain one day. Would love to see you use a slo roller in the WSM as one of the comparisons too. I have a WSM but don’t know if I’m missing out compared to the KJ.

  5. I use my shop vac to clean the ash out of my KJr. Works great & no mess. This was EXCELLENT test. I don't do a lot of brisket's (about 2/yr) but this last Summer I did one on my KJr vs my WSM. I thought maybe because it was the first time I had the heat or charcoal not quite right; but I didn't think it tasted nearly as good as when I use my WSM. So, just maybe its the differences in the cookers (?).

  6. Hope to see more on the Weber kamado. I have now implemented by custom metal working a double indirect on my Weber Kamado. Theory states it will reduce the radiant energy by almost 50% and my charcoal usage has gone up which makes sense for the same cook…. Greetings from ottawa

  7. Amazing how little of the coals have burned to ashes. I'd take the cheaper grill that can produce better smoke flavor. It seems like the designers of many grills, including pellet grill manufacturers, prioritize efficiency over smoke flavor.
