I would definitely buy this smoker again

I know commercial use is not recommended but I used mine in my restaurant. I smoked 4 pork butts every night for a year and a half. Prime ribs, countless chickens, ribs. I can't say enough good about this more than solid little smoker. It's retired now on the back porch but still does a great job when I need it

I love this smoker!

It took me a few times to get the hang of it especially when smoking large trout fillets but the more I use this thing the more I like it and the better the results. I would definitely recommend this smoker. I only found one small flaw. the caster wheels that it comes with are chinsey. I easily upgraded mine with a little bit larger casters from the hardware store making it smoother to roll it from my garage to the driveway. I have had this smoker for two years now and I am very glad I bought it.

I used it the first time to smoke a brisket. It came out very good, even though I need more expensive with brisket.

Already a hit after 2 days

Received my 1400 on Friday. Spent an hour putting together the cart, then fired it up to season it. First batch was a load of Apple smoked lobster tails and brats. I used too many chips, and they were okay, but oversmoked. On Sunday, I prepped two trip-tip roasts from Costsco with an 8-hour marinade in Stubbs beef marinade, then rubbed a standard Montreal rub on the outside. I smoked them with 3 oz of cherry wood, at a low 215, until the meat temp was 132. Then pulled them out, let them rest for a few, then seared them in a cast iron skillet with plenty of butter and fresh rosemary. It was the best meat I've ever cooked. I want to take a picture, but it went so fast, that by the time i grabbed my phone, there was only empty plates. The 1400, or at least mine, runs a little hotter than the dial on tops says. My thermo was telling me that the air temp was 215 degrees, and the dial was 200. No big, because at that temp, it's all low and slow - and heat is pretty consistent from top shelf to the bottom shelf. Love this 1400. We're going to be making people smile for years to come.

Will be buying the next size!!

I have had my little smoker since they first came out in 1999 and it is still going strong. Since I am now retired and moving I will be buying the next size up. I have smoked tremoundous amounts of fresh Albacore and other fish and it always turned out well in my smoker. I no long have my Sportfisher but still smoke turkey, pork shoulders, brisket, chicken and whatever else I can think of in my Smokin Tex. It also does a great job with stuffed jalapenos and adding smoke to onions. Just be careful when smoking veggies and use very little wood or no wood if your smoker is well seasoned like mine.

Outstanding

My old gas smoker would blow out when turned down low if there was any amount of wind. I just smoke 2 racks of ribs. The weather was 40 MPH wind and constant heavy rain and my new smoker never missed a beat ( it is on the back porch). It did a great job of maintaining the temperature during that intense storm. The ribs were great.

Great Product

This is a great, quality made product including the cart but beware that the oven temperature varies 40 to 50 degrees. I bought a digital oven thermometer (Square DOT) to monitor the oven temp. I've done several batches of ribs, a pork roast that all came out delicious. On the other hand, I did both chicken wings and and whole, spatchcocked chicken that were disasters. The skin on both were tough and rubbery. The 5 pounds of wings went directly into the garbage. I was able to salvage the breast meat from the whole chicken which was pretty good but the rest of it was not due to her tough, rubbery skin.

The Skinny:

  • User-friendly operation
  • No assembly required
  • Controlled heat and no-draft cooking conditions for perfectly moist food every time

Things We Love:

Easy to Use: Set It and Forget It

If you value simplicity in a smoker, then you have to try the Smokin Tex Pro Series 1400 Electric Smoker. We found it to be among the easiest smokers to use — all you need is a 120-volt power supply, some fuel, and a couple choice cuts of meat just waiting to be smoked! Once your smoking chips are in the wood box and your food is on the racks, all that is required of you is to set the temperature to the desired level and then let this Smokin Tex Pro Series model do its thing. Virtually no maintenance or observation is needed during the cooking process, giving you more time to enjoy the company of friends and family.

The slow-cooking temperature range of this smoker falls between 100 and 250℉, which is perfect for producing fall-of-the-bone results that’ll have everyone’s mouths watering. Thanks to its construction, the Smokin Tex 1400 electric smoker is able to maintain exact temperatures over long periods of time for evenly controlled heat. The result is old-fashioned, low-and-slow cooking in whatever outdoor space can safely accommodate this mobile unit. And with a three-year warranty, you can use the Series 1400 with peace of mind for all the many cookouts to come.

Excellent Construction

The same design that makes this smoker excellent at retaining heat also lends to its durability. Most notable is the double-walled stainless steel cabinet, which provides enhanced insulation for even better heat and smoke retention to create moist food — all while keeping the exterior cool to the touch while in use. There’s also stainless steel used throughout the smoker’s body, including the removable drip pan.

Because the three adjustable racks — which are removable and dishwasher-safe — can be placed in five different shelf positions for a maximum capacity of 38 pounds, the Smokin Tex 1400 is great for those who love to experiment with their cooking technique. Did we already say that this smoker comes fully assembled with four caster wheels and a cookbook? Not to mention all the optional accessories available for this unit, like a well-fitting cover, cold smoke plate, and even a specially designed seafood grill. All of this makes for an effortless, fun smoking experience!

Things To Consider:

The smoker’s interior needs to be seasoned before first use. For help with this important step, call one of our BBQ experts at 1-877-743-2269. You should operate this Smokin Tex unit only in dry, covered, and well-ventilated areas. Because of its electrical components, this smoker shouldn’t be allowed to get wet and needs to be protected from rain, snow, and sprinklers. We offer Smokin Tex smoker covers for added protection from the elements.

The unit should also be unplugged and stored inside when not in use. Make sure you adjust the controls to the “OFF” position, unplug, and let the smoker cool before removing or placing any parts. Never leave a hot smoker unattended with the door open, and always be aware of the presence of hot grease when moving the smoker while in use. When using an extension cord, keep in mind that an overly long or light-duty cord will cause the smoker’s heating element to be less efficient.

Questions & Answers

Question:
What is the functional difference between this (the 1400) and the 1100? Is it just the capacity?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Ryan. The Smokin Tex 1100 is simply smaller than the 1400. It has only 2 racks and holds up to 23 pounds of food compared to the 1400 with 3 racks and a 36 pound capacity.

Asked by Ryan | Answered by Ryan
Question:
What is the true height and width of the smoker? Also the height of the smoker without the caster (with just its legs on the ground)? I ask because we want to put a smoker in an outdoor covered kitchen as a "built in" and this is a good size?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Todd. The Smoker Dimensions (in inches): 17 1/2 W x 21 D x 29 H (including wheels) 26 3/4 H (without wheels). If planning to install it as a "built-in", please keep in mind that the top of the smoker will need to remain unobstructed for access to the controls and the exhaust in the center of the top. It is also a good idea to leave an inch or so on all sides for ventilation.

Question:
Hi. I was wondering what stainless steel material the Smokin Tex Model 1400 uses. Is it 304 stainless double wall inside and out?Was This Helpful?

Hi Mike. Smokin Tex uses 304-grade, double-walled stainless inside and out on these smokers.

Question:
Hi, hiw long last wood chips and how often is recomended to replace them, is the door has to be opened to replace wood chips? Thank you.Was This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Azeke. Smokin Tex suggests using wood chunks. Depending on the temperature set, the chunks should last for many, many hours without the need to refil.

Asked by Azeke | Answered by Azeke

You only use 4-6 small chips of wood and you replace them every time you use the smoker, you have to open the door to replace the wood in the smoker tray. -Aaron

Question:
Hello y'all. I was wondering about what the temperature swing is?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

HI Buck. The temperature range for the Smokin Tex is 100 to 250 F.

Asked by Buck | Answered by Buck

Hi Buck, We have been operating this unit commercially for 5 years with 1 small repair requiring a new thermostat which BBQGuys replaced for free even though we weren't covered under warranty as commercial use and it was our fault for not cleaning it properly, and we operate it outside in Truckee, CA near Lake Tahoe in extreme temperatures. We get a temperature swing of less than +- 25 degrees. We had one of our chefs when smoking pork bellies for our house made bacon wrap bricks in foil and place on the bottom rack and preheat which he claimed helped maintain temp at a tighter tolerance, I don't know, but all in all, this is a solid unit that can be used in a commercial kitchen for years with little to no maintenance. Good luck -Aaron

Question:
Does the 1400 electric smoker have a timer ?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

No timer.

Asked by Kathy | Answered by Kathy

Hi, Kathy. Smokin Tex Pro 1400 only has a temperature control. There is no timer.

Asked by Kathy | Answered by Kathy

No, this unit does not have a timer.

Asked by Kathy | Answered by Kathy

No it does not. Not sure how valuable that would be as you smoke proteins to a temperature, not a time limit. We use the meater plus and the meater block, both available at meater.com to get a wifi notification of when our products reach the desired temperature. There are cheaper non-commercial options available as well. Cheers, -Aaron

Question:
Can this smoker be left outside without a cover under the elements? Is the rheostat/knob waterproof?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Robben. This unit should not be left unattended in the rain. I would highly recommend a cover, and for it to be placed under cover if not used for extended periods of time.

Asked by Robben | Answered by Robben

We use this smoker commercially and store outside, in Lake Tahoe Ca. with extreme weather, snow, ice, high altitude and do not cover it. It lives under a small overhang but frequently is covered in a dumping of snow that blows sideways. It has been in service for 4 years with only 1 problem that was OUR FAULT. We let the grease build up so much from not cleaning it that there was a fire inside that melted the thermostat. I called BBQ GUYS to explain that I messed up and wanted to order a replacement part and they sent it to me for free! Even after telling them it was my fault and a commercial unit, these guys rock. 5 stars all the way!! best lil smoker I have ever purchased. To answer your second question...I don't think the knob is technically waterproof, but again, we have not had any problems with it getting wet on several occasions.

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

This item leaves our warehouse within 1-3 Business Days
