Pit Boss is famous for pellet grills, but its K24 ceramic deserves attention: 61 cm diameter, a brand Spaniards know, at a price clearly below the Big Joe III.
The XL kamado for buyers who want large size without paying absolute premium.
Pros
- 61 cm — cooks for 8-10 without breaking a sweat
- Brand recognised in Spanish BBQ via its pellet grills
- Honest ceramic build at a competitive price
- Analog thermometer and cart included
Cons
- No Divide & Conquer-style multi-tier system
- Less dense ceramic than Kamado Joe or BGE
- Limited K24-specific accessory ecosystem
For you if…
If you cook for 8-10 regularly and prefer a known brand — Pit Boss has decent dealer support in Spain.
Not for you if…
If you expect Kamado Joe-level innovation (SlōRoller, Divide & Conquer) — the K24 is a plain classic kamado.

FAQ
Is the K24 worth it vs the Big Joe III?
Same 61 cm diameter, but the Big Joe plays in a different league: denser ceramic, SlōRoller, three-tier Divide & Conquer and a lifetime warranty. The K24 is an honest XL kamado with no tricks: grate, deflector, analog thermometer and cart. If your budget falls short of the Big Joe but you want 61 cm, the K24 delivers. If you can stretch, the Big Joe shows up in every cook.
Does Pit Boss have service in Spain?
Yes, through the BBQ dealer network (Carrefour, Leroy Merlin and specialists like Boss BBQ Spain) that already sells their pellet grills. Coverage falls short of Weber but beats smaller brands like Vision or Kamado Bono. Common spares (thermometer, gasket, wheel) ship in 1-2 weeks; ceramic parts, count on a month from the European warehouse.
Is K24 ceramic as dense as a Big Joe's?
No. The K24 weighs 110 kg in 61 cm; the Big Joe III weighs 170 kg at the same diameter. That 60 kg gap is extra ceramic — thermal mass you feel on long smokes (the Big Joe shrugs off wind gusts and ambient swings better). On fast cooks (grilling, pizza) both perform similarly. K24 ceramic is honest but not premium.
Will it smoke brisket at 110 °C for 14 hours?
Yes, with babysitting. The K24's lower-density ceramic copes less with ambient swings — if it gets windy or the night drops 10 °C, expect to tweak the vents 2-3 times overnight. An external BBQ Guru controller (not included) lets you sleep through. Without one, this is a kamado for smokers who already know how to "read" a fire.
What is the warranty and what does it cover?
Five years on ceramic and 1 year on non-ceramic parts (thermometer, wheels, side table). Not lifetime like KJ or BGE, but fair for the segment. Covers manufacturing defects, not misuse damage (thermal shock, drops). Important: register the purchase on the Pit Boss site within 30 days — without registration the warranty drops to Amazon's default 2 years.
