The versatile Smoke Vault from Camp Chef locks in delicious smoked flavor in variety of foods from ribs to salmon and even baked pies or breads. This 18-inch propane gas smoker has an 18,000 BTU burner with a convenient, matchless snap-ignition and is capable of reaching temperatures as low as 160 degrees Fahrenheit all the way up to 350 degrees for baking breads and casseroles. The Smoke Vault has a heavy-gauge, steel wood chip tray which creates smoke and a removable water pan to keep your food moist. The smoker has three damper valves, one on the top and one on each side for controlling the temperature and smoke level in your food. The SMV18S also has an easy-to-read door thermometer which helps you monitor the smoking progress. There are two adjustable smoker racks for most foods and one jerky rack with a tight mesh screen to prevent small food like jerky and seafood from falling through the smoker. Great tasting food will always bring people together, and Camp Chef produces quality products that bring out the best in outdoor cooking.

 | AmazingI highly recommend this smoker. We are going on our 6th year with the 18". Salmon to Boston butt, beer can chicken to mac & cheese there hasn't been anything bad come out of this smoker (except when I fell asleep on a late night cook which was operator error). Extremely fuel efficient I have done 3 separate cooks at 6-10 hours each on one tank. The first 3 years of this smoker lived outside only covered by the Camp Chef cover. There is zero rust. I live in NC which had high humidity and It has seen a lot of rain and some snow. The cover is still holding up but is on its last leg as it's sun bleached and starting to get rips in it. Well worth the money for the cover. One recommendation I have is don't smoke Thanksgiving turkeys, hams, or bbq unless you plan on doing it at every family function from now on because it produces amazing food which I don't mind one bit. It is also pretty portable to load in the truck and take on vacations or to a friends house for a cookout. | Was This Helpful? |
| Overall smoker reviewEasy to put together, excellent quality smoker and holds temperature nicely. | Was This Helpful? |
| Longevity? Check!This is my TENTH year cooking on the same unit (18"). I want to upgrade to the 24", but I still feel I have many miles on this smoker. How many grills, smokers, etc. are still going after 10 years? And the ignition switch still works, which is just incredible! I live in Northern MN and have smoked from 90 above to 20 below--this thing just gets the job done, period. A+ product. | Was This Helpful? |
| Love our new smoke vault!We just got this Smoke Vault for Christmas and couldn't be happier! I meal prep for our week every weekend anyways, so this vault has made my cooking life AMAZING!! All the different types of meat are absolutely scrumptious!! HIGHLY recommend :) | Was This Helpful? |
| Great smoker/great valueI received this smoker as a Christmas gift probably 4-5 years ago and use it often. This smoker has been through a lot! Getting blown over several times in our back yard wind tunnel, left uncovered several times and rained on, cover blew off during a wicked winter storm and left for days buried half way up with snow and it still keeps on producing delicious meat! The only thing we've replaced was the cover in all these years. It still fires right up and seems to just sip on propane, a 20lb bottle seems to last us well over a year and we use it probably 5-10 times a season. Cant say any bad about this smoker. | Was This Helpful? |
| Great Product! SUPER VALUE!!ALL positive! Takes a couple of hours to get the hang of temperature control, but worth the study. Lots of room. Jerky {both turkey & beef} turned out super with hickory. Ribs to die for! Smoked Cod WOW! A tank of LP goes a very long way. | Was This Helpful? |
| The BEST!Finally broke down & went from electric to propane. This unit has the best temp. control I've ever seen! Great Jerky, Pulled Pork and Brisket! Very satisfied with low propane consumption. Thanks Camp Chef for a well thought out smoker. Bill | Was This Helpful? |
| Looks well buit!My 18" Smoke Vautl just arrived yesterday, very well packed, arrived quite Ok, very minor tears in the box. Simple to follow assembling instructions. Seasoned it last night, and doing my first attempt to smoke some pork shoulder ribs today. Will post after I get the feel of it. My first time using a propane smoker, so far I have always used a charcoal/wood. smoker! | Was This Helpful? |
| Great SmokerI received this as a corporate gift (great company!) and have used it several times with fantastic results - pork butts, brisket, oysters, pork belly. I never used a smoker until I got the Smoke Vault 18" and found it really easy to set up and use. | Was This Helpful? |
| Great SmokerI have owned this for almost 2 years now. I have never had a bad meal while using it. I have smoked just about every kind of meat on it and it comes out tasting better than my favorite barbecue restaurant. I converted mine to natural gas so the convenience of not getting propane tanks. You can literally set this smoker and forget about it. You will only need to add water to the water pan in about 3-4 hours. | Was This Helpful? |
