“Very bummed that none of the adaptors fit the Akorn Kamado. My BBQ fan arrived today, will hook it up to the Fireboard 2 Drive tomorrow and test it out. FOr the pirce, you should sell an adaptoor.”
“After having a fire go out in the middle of the night last fall and throwing a brisket -food safety reasons for our family gathering (Plan B grilled brats) - a choice for the future of Kamado Joe? The technology with a PID control of temp; variable speed fan w/adjustable fan inlet; power supply from controller; intuitive app; bluetooth or network based; predictive software; programmable cooking time/temp, fan adapter plates included. In KS, lots of ambient variations in temp, wind, dew point to resolve where control by the width of a an inlet/outlet slot for convection - just does not work. Having worked in the utility boiler business air/fuel ratios so important for managing heat transfer - had a few support questions on “how to”; very helpful/cool company to do business with. Outcome: “Dad, those ribs were amazing."”
“I have used other fan assist blowers on my offset smoker. Fire board is the most true temperature control and blower system that I’ved in decades! On the Fourth of July this year 2025 I receive my system the day before,I did a pre-cook just so I knew how it would work on the fourth. I Cook two baby back ribs tomahawk steak and smoked sausage, the only issue I had was with my first attempt making Texas Twinkies which was a disaster. Not because they were not cooked perfectly, but the jalapeños were extremely hot Even though I thought I took out All of the seeds and the veins ♂️ I am excited for Thanksgiving to smoke my turkey and also for Christmas when I will smoke my prime rib! After watching all of the YouTube regarding fire board system, I reached out to the company and spoke with Wendy in customer service who answered all of my questions.,which helped me decide if I wanted to purchase the fire board system! Oh it was a fire board drive it has six ports which I was wondering why I would need that many and then when I did smoke the meat on the Fourth of July I used all of them. It’s great that I ordered the bundles. Which not only gave me six probes but also for the Fourth of July I received probe containers to store them in! Thank you fire board for the system! I don’t always go through a serious barbecue weekly but I’m ready for the holidays! Baird”
“This is a perfectly engineered piece of equipment. It does everything I need it to do, without glitches, connectivity issues or guesswork. I just ran it for about 24 hours straight while getting ready for a large gathering, and it was an absolute dream.”
“I purchased this package to use on Kamado grill. I just purchased the grill and had not used it all without the FireBoard 2 Drive. I love the fact that you can set up multiple programs based on time, temperature, or both.
Once you start a program it is extremely easy and accurate. You just set it and forget it until it is done.
The included fan panel fit my Kamado Joe Classic 2 perfectly when installed sideways. Just a slight opening in the top cap is all that is needed. I also listened to others and set the fan speed to 30% and auto.
This thing is amazing!! So glad I purchased it”
“Great experience with the fireboard 2 drive bundle. Completed about four cooks so far. Great addition to my XL big green egg and am very pleased.
The app is super easy to use and very convenient. I added the S1G antenna to my unit and can review my cook from basically anywhere now, even while walking my dog around the block.
The fan takes a bit to get used to, but I am overall pleased with it. Very quiet, easy to connect, and easy to control in the app. I have found setting a max fan speed to be very helpful. It can shoot past desired temp if left wide open. But once you get it dialed in, it holds the temperature very nicely.
The included wired probes so far have been stellar. Nice long length on the cables and great temp readings throughout the cook. Also easy to clean which is a big deal. The storage pouches are a nice touch, though not required.”
