Cuisinart 36-Inch Vertical Propane Smoker - COS-244

Recently got the Cuisinart Vertical Propane Smoker and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to prepare for the first use. We've owned several smokers in the past, but this was the perfect size! Our smoked meats came out tasting like we were at a BBQ restaurant!

Step one: Assembly. The smoker took a little more than an hour to put together out of the box. Parts are all well packaged and once together creates a good quality product. My only complaint is that the fasteners can be a little challenging to get out of the packaging. Power tools definitely make things go faster. Step 2: Smoking. Smoker is easy to use and has lots of room for food. Takes some getting used to, but I assume that is the same for all smokers. Doors take a bit of adjustment to get to seal well, but overall the smoker is fairly intuitive to use and propane requires less intervention than wood or charcoal. Overall a good basic smoker.

Needed a product that could hold a good sized turkey or a few trays of smoked salmon and deliver a cos instant smoke. The assembly was slightly more challenging than a children's toy but overall the directions were clear and helpful. The propane helped start the wood chips easily and I was able to control the amount of smoke delivered to my product. The adjustable shelves helped me really hone in the amount of flavor directed to the products. The heavy duty frame and door and temperature gauge were perfect and helpful in ensuring the best product. I would highly recommend this smoker to any serious food smoker.

I have always been a charcoal kind of guy. Went out on a limb and got this gas smoker. All I can say is wow! It was easy assembly following the instructions. Smoked some baby back ribs on it. They turned out tender and juicy! It was easy to control the temperature which I have always had trouble doing with a charcoal smoker. All in all it is a great smoker would recommend to anyone!

This smoker is very easy to setup and was super easy to use. Using a propane tank is much easier than trying to keep wood in there at just the right proportions/temperature. The push dial start/temperature adjust along with the large temperature gauge on the front makes this a cinch to use. If you search online/YouTube you can find lots of awesome tips and recipes. This thing can hold a lot of meat! (and vegetables too!) Very versatile! Love the food it makes and it looks great too.

I bought this unsure of what I would receive, but I was shocked as the product was incredible! It is a high quality smoker that will allow us to cook a variety of foods. The parts were all intact and it's great! I have not used it many times so far as I just got it, but it seems like it will work great!

I received my new smoker and fell in love immediately. I love the inside racks that it offers and the door is big enough to take out any product. I am so glad I chose this smoker! Summer meals never tasted so good.

This is my very first smoker and I am very pleased. The box came with pretty good instructions, it took me about one hour to put it together. Initially when I purchased I thought I could connect to my gas at my home but it is not recommended because gas burns at a different temperature than gas. I got the perfect propane tank and cooked a pork roast on y first try, it came out juicy and delicious. I live the two doors so heat is not released when adding wood chips. The materials used are nice and the quality and workmanship is good. Very pleased!

Nice size smoker for family use. The top says it can be used as a table, however it gets slightly hot, so use with caution. Adequate space inside. Door and latch work great. Nice size hose to connect propane. Not too heavy. Easy to move and to use. Assembly took about a half hour and was simple.

I have wanted a smoker for a while and Im glad I chose this one. The box was pretty heavy and when you take all the pieces out it looks quite overwhelming to put together. I had my boyfriend help me and other then one screw hole not matching up it wasn't that bad, it took maybe 40 minutes tops. I really like the design of it, its compact and wont take a lot of room up on my deck . There is a lot of room to cook multiple items and the shelves can be moved around to fit any size of whatever you are making. I never have used one of these and am very excited to cook with it this weekend. Though I was a bit disapointed with the little cookbook that comes with it, but luckily you can just use your computer for that!
