Charles Undisclosed Feb 17, 2021 Verified Purchaser	★★★★★ ★★★★★ Great Smoker but smoke on LOW temp I like this smoker a lot! Easy to set up and use. But based on my last smoker, I was inclined to crank the smoker up to around medium to high as the smoking temperature. Wrong. These elements get real hot and I finally learned to put the smoker on a little less than LOW and it worked great. If you don't use LOW, guaranteed your chunks will fire up.	Was This Helpful?
Dr Burnish Raleigh, NC Dec 12, 2020	★★★★★ ★★★★★ First Impression In 35 years this is the 3rd smoker I have purchased having the same design. The first one, made of steel - element failed after years of use. The second one, made of steel rusted out. For this one, I decided to try stainless steel material. Assembly of the new one is not rocket science but the directions are easy to read but assembly instructions are not clear for a person not mechanical. First use, element easily heated up and able to maintain 225 F environment. Temperature on the gage showed "IDEAL" near the "WARM" side. Wood burned evenly and complete. The slide ports allowing access to wood and pot is a good idea but smoke exits cracks which is not a bad thing but a surprise. A tool is needed to grasp the slide port tab and move it up and down because it's really hot. It would be nice if a piece of insulating material was added to the tab for convivence. Stainless Steel color turned brown wherever smoke touch it and some areas turned blue signifying high heat temperature. For the first run, worked great! Food cooked evenly and was tasty.

gallinavieja Harmony Maine Dec 12, 2016 Verified Purchaser	★★★★★ ★★★★★ Why did I wait so long? My old Brinkmann smoker was about 20 years old, leaky and wheezing. It was sorely in need of a new heating element -- too bad, no longer available. After shopping around on the internet, I decided on the Meco stainless steel smoker. Easy to assemble, by the way. I haven't done much with it so far since it's December in Maine, if you get my drift (ing snow and cold). But what I did -- a small piece of pork, a ham hock and some steelhead trout on separate occasions -- turned out great! I also like that it's all in one piece so easy to move around. Right now it's on winter respite in the barn, but I'm looking forward to it warming up enough, maybe in March that I can bring it out and do some serious smoking.	Was This Helpful?
Nancy Undisclosed Dec 6, 2019 Verified Purchaser	★★★★★ ★★★★★ A learning experience First of all, BBQ Guys get 5 stars. The first smoker we received was bent enough that the lid did not fit no matter how much we tried to shape it into place. Upon contacting BBQ Guys, they immediately sent us a new smoker with a lid that fit perfectly. Now the rest of the story. We followed the directions exactly to cook an 11 lb. organic fresh turkey (expensive!). The directions said to cook a 10 - 12 lb turkey 6 - 8 hours and repeated over and over "Do not peek" while your meat is cooking. We had to put wood chunks in several times, no problem. The water in the pan never evaporated completely, so that was untouched. Nice fragrant smoke was coming out of the cooker. At 6 hours I excitedly got my instant read thermometer ready and we opened the lid. Our beautiful turkey was a shriveled black mess.! The thermometer read 220 degrees! Turkey jerky! Luckily this was an experiment and it wasn't Thanksgiving day. We will try again in the future, but this time I will peek at maybe 4 hours, 5 hours, etc.	Was This Helpful?
