Broil King Smoke 28-Inch Vertical Charcoal Smoker - Black

I've had this smoker since 2015 and love it! It was easy to assemble and operate. It makes smoking easy, and does an excellent job with anything we've tried. And I've had a lot of fun trying different recipes. Great way to spend a summer day…low and slow!

Ok, so after using this smoker for a little over a year now, I feel I can give an helpful review. Like's Last week it was below zero out side and we were eating smoked ribs, perfectly cooked. Yea for double wall Make in the USA, NICE!!!! heats up fast enough, and can be turned down, low enough, YEA water tray lasts for the whole cook does not get the deck hot at all The fold out shelf is soo useful, I did not think it would be, but I was wrong possible improvements a temp control and or timer would be really nice My family has all had food from this smoker, and all agree it is as good as the commercial smoker I had before. I would and have recomended this smoker to all my friends and family No fuss no muss, just smoking year round. Wind, extreme cold, rain, snow, no issue, no problem. There is something special about bbq when it is snowing and cold. Keep up the good work Mr. and Ms. Broil King the bbq guys did fast shipping, it got dented, and the bbq guys were willing to work with me, but it is just cosmetic and I have not been sorry at all about the purchase or the dent,

With the help of this smoker, I have become a local legend with meats, cheeses. Seem to have a request weekly to fire up my Broil King.

The smoker works extremely well and the meat comes out exactly the way I want every time. The door seals extremely will to make sure the smoke only escapes the vents on the side. The wood and water trays are very large which allows you to add more wood easily and you rarely have to add water unless it is a very long smoke. The reason I gave a poor rating is three of the five grills have broke in less than a year of ownership. The deep roast tray had the welds break with only a six pound brisket in it. The thermometer on the door is very inaccurate and has started to fog to the point where it is almost unreadable.

I bought this one year ago, I purchases a Broil King as i have a BBQ which I love but the smoker has disappointed. Firstly the temperature gauge is garbage and doesn`t work. The slot system to adjust the racks is horrible, the slot rails easily fall out, it is a horrible design.

Won this about 2 years ago from an Inns & Gunn beer contest. Such a good easy to use smoker. The only issue is that the seals around both doors leak, but i am not too worried. It holds temp pretty good.

Bought this on Boxing Day and after assembly we got right to it. Easy to use. We live in a colder climate and unfortunately the temperature gauge doesn't register any heat at all. So our first attempt at smoking we kept it on high heat and still it said 150 degrees (but it wasn't, the meats were way overdone. Checked the calibration and it's fine. Just smoked again yesterday and still the gauge doesn't move at all. It'll all be guesswork unfortunately.

This is my first smoker and very happy with it! Great value for money (not the cheapest but far of being the most expensive)

Took a chance on redeeming points from work's safety program and picked this smoker. Only thing I'd encourage after choosing this is a thermometer, one that uses a probe so you can keep the box closed. I'm smoking in -20C temps or colder less you need to look the better.
