Oklahoma Joe's Highland Offset Reverse Flow Smoker/Grill - 24203003

The reverse offset design evens the temperature range in the smoking area a surprising amount better than a standard flow smoker. It's great that it can be converted to a normal flow design also. Love the metal shelves and the flat section of the fire box to preheat the wood so it is a clean smoke faster once it's burning. I miss the nostalgic handles instead of the plastic ones that spin freely but that's being picky.

Very nice SMOKER. I thought it was also a grill. I had to modify it but, I still really love it.

Smoker is tight very little heat and smoke loss been using smokers 43 years .very good smoker with reverse flow

I just finished putting it together. It was simple and straightforward. Nothing damaged or missing. Instructions were good. I did put a gasket between the halves of the firebox because without it there was not a perfect fit all the way around. What stands out to me the most so far is the height. The cooking surface is only 30" off the ground. The chargriller it is replacing is 35". Check all the measurements to make sure it suits you. I have googled this everyday I can think of but have found no mention or justification for the low height.

Just what I expected and got. It is smaller which works well for the amount of food I cook at one time and fits in to my smaller footprint. Reverse flow is what I had decided on after a lot of research.

While seasoning the smoker, the paint around the fire box immediately began to peel and flake away.

Girl is amazing and very solid. Product is good material is also good. Installation was easy and very durable and thank you for giving me that grill. I love it. 

So as per all the othe reviews, the paint comes right off the smoke box on the first smoke. It was expected so I was not surprised. I did, when I put it together seal the box to the main body with high temp silicone. I was worried that it wouldn't be sealed enough. I also sealed the box (since it comes into 2 peices) with the same silicone. The sealant worked beautifully. I like that when yes you get the reverse smoke that they also give you the option to change it back and forth to reverse and regular. I do think that you should purchase another temp probe for the other side. As to be sure your smoker is evenly heated. Mine is about a 10 to 15 degree difference. I also put high heat gaskets on the smoker and smoker box lids. They worked wonderfully only letting out minimal smoke. Although the smoker box gaskets melted off. I will have to research more on which ones I can that would be better suited. With the modifications, I am very happy with the unit. Can't wait to have the time to use it more often.

I plan to buy this smoker because I used a commercial reverse flow in a restaurant for BBQ.

Having bought the smoker/grill combo many years ago, I was excited to have a new smoker. Yet, quality is just not there anymore. The fire box is a joke, thin, bolt together, and a slide out tray with little vent hole. The wooden handle on the fire box gets very hot during the cook. The smoke chamber has large gaps I have to fill with foil to keep tons of smoke leaking.
