I have had a number of smokers and hands down this Bronco is the best. No issues holding temp at all, it does take time to dial in the temp after that walk away. I use a grate temp sensor to help with correct temp. Best smoker I have ever had!!! Owned it for 6yrs.

I have only tried the smoker once. It was a fairly cool day with a north wind blowing. I tried to position the smoker mainly out of the wind but there was still a small breeze. The temperature outside was in the low 60's. I was unable to get the heat inside the smoker to ablove 210. The materials used for this smoker are high quality. The shipper damaged the cooking rack and your company promptly sent me a new cooking rack. Your staff gets gold stars but the cooker may only work if it is a warm day. I wanted a good barrel smoker and given time things may improve.

After reading a gazillion reviews about difficulty lining up the barrels, I was tempted to pay the 120 to have it assembled but I did not waste the money, I knew they wouldn't use a nomex gasket on the 2 barrel segments or rtv gel on the bolts. Everything was pretty easy, you do need patience lining up the barrels. That's the key, and I am not known for extreme patience!. It may seem impossible to line up but make sure the notch on the bottom barrel lines up directly in the middle of the okie Joe's logo. I also wanted to mention my buying experience. I bought my Bronco pro from BBQ Guys. Thy were great, I paid 589 with my military discount applied to the already great 629 sale price. Very good experience. Highly recommend
Soy de Costa Rica, en un ahumador excelente, muy bien pensado, cómodo y práctico. Está hecho con excelentes materiales es muy fuerte y resistente.
Bought a few months ago and originally left 2 stars because it came damaged and I couldn't get in touch with anybody. I had to bend it back into shape myself and then seal everything just to avoid crazy temp swings. Since then it hasn't been back but then they left a comment on my review asking me to reach out to see what happened. I did and I was left on hold for over an hour a never got anybody again so I'm changing my review to 1 star just for the customer service. Get a Weber Smokey Mountain instead
This barrel smoker is pretty awesome! I've used it 3 times and have learned a great way to set up the fuel. I probably would have given this a 5 star, but the only thing holding me back was the grease catch at the bottom. I just wish it was bigger.

The product is excellent, the customer service is terrible. I am very happy with the smoker, I sealed every attachment point and seam with high temp silicone and it has performed perfectly. The only issue I have is the dial on the intake moves so it makes the numbers/markings useless, but I'm accustomed to eyeballing my vents anyway, so it's only mildly inconvenient. I'm still getting everything dialed in, but I'm confident that with practice I'll be able to set this thing up and let it run on it's own for hours. Don't bother contacting Oklahoma Joe's customer service though, they are extremely rude, completely useless, and, if I hadn't already owned the product they would have turned me off from spending any money with them at all.

Box came a little damaged. Didn't notice any major damage when putting it together but after fully complete noticed a slight bend in the bottom drum. Barely noticeable. Used it quite a few times and I've had some pretty bad temp swings and can't hold steady temps. Not sure if it is the bend or not
This smoker is amazing! The only thing I would change is the handle, it makes it hard to move around. The handle needs to be longer and higher for more leverage. It cooks like a dream.

Asked by Don | Answered by WesleyHi Meri. Oklahoma Joe's Bronco Drum does not have a door for adding charcoal. It does have an oversized charcoal basket and users have reported being able to hold temperatures around 275 for at least 12 hours.

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.
