Questions about Cuisinart COS-244 Vertical 36" Propane Smoker, Black
Q:
How long will a propane tank last with this one?
Answer:
Answer:
Answer: I get between 20-24 hours on a 20 lb tank smoking at 225 degrees.
Answer: I got three good long smokes out of a tank, and at the end of the third, I noticed the temp flagging (didn't cut out fortunately) so I swapped it. Otherwise I've always ended up swiping the tank for something else in between smokes. Smoking is such a low gas flow that it doesn't cut out abruptly, it shows underperformance for a while if you're monitoring ambient temps, as the tank pressure drops.
Answer: It's really impossible to answer that question. It depends on the temperature you're cooking/smoking at. But in general, smoking is done at a lower temperature than grilling, so a 20 pound propane tank will usually last way longer with a smoker than it will with a grill. In a nutshell, you should be able to get several cooks out of a single propane tank, depending on what you're cooking.
Answer: Sorry. Josh, I'm not much help. Haven't used a full tank yet. It seems to last we'll, because I've only used the little 20 lb. tank you can rent at Wal-Mart. Smoking apparently takes much less fuel than grilling.
Answer: Pour hot water over tank. The cold spot is where you're at. But should last 6-8 hrs total depending on temp
Answer: Then you'll be pleased. This smoker seems to be conservative of fuel use.
Answer: ... This is a charcoal smoker.
Q:
Can the racks be removed and meats hung? Does it have a hanging ring in top?
Answer: The racks can be moved and removed. I've not seen any hanging hooks or rings on which hooks might be hanged.
Answer: There are no hanging hooks. The top rack is about 5" from the top, so if you hang from there you'll lose that space. But the top is just a single sheet of metal. Should be simple to install you own, though the manufacturer (are they reading this?) do that for us.
Answer: Remove all the racks and hang your meat from the top rack then reinsert.
Q:
The extra tray for water where do you put it on the lower rack or where the other tray is first time doing this?
Answer: I put it on the lowest rack accessible from the upper door.
Answer: You should put it on the rack located where the lower door is.
Answer: I put it in the top we’re the meat goes on the last bottom
Q:
The lowest temp I got with knob set at low, with no water and empty in the smoking chamber is 235 degrees. Without water, what temps did you get?
Answer: Used mine once. With water in one tray, on low, in full sun, ran at 200°.
Answer: I have to run at highest setting to get 220 degrees.
Answer: At full blast, with water, I get to 230
Answer: I haven't used it without water. It usually stays around 225 with water.
Q:
I just read that you have to check the water pan every thirty minutes... Is that accurate?
Answer: That's correct. The water just boils off. I use the bottom pan for wood chips and the top pan for water. I fill it up everytime I open the door, about 2-3 times per cooking session.
Answer: If you want temps > 212°F, you can do without the water entirely. Otherwise, air temps will never rise above that.
Answer: I've had to do it about every 35 minutes. But the bottom door helps keep the heat in the main chamber.
Answer: I put water tray on top because I was going out every 15 min to fill water
Answer: Probably. We used ours once so far and the pan needed it be refilled fairly frequently.
Answer: Depending on what temp you are cooking at it is about every hour
Q:
How often do you have to add water and wood chips durning the smoking process?
Answer: It really depends on the outside temp. I have smoked when it is 40 degrees out and I will use a Quart of water an hour, keeping the temp around 205-210 degrees. There are several factors that will determine how much water you use, smoking temp, outside temp, and humidity.
Answer: Water should check and add every hour on lowest setting chips should last three plus hours. They do give you a small pan for extra water.
Answer: It depends on the meat and duneas. normal the time would be 2 to hours
Q:
My wood chips burn too fast, like every 30 min and it’s on the lowest temp. Anyone familiar with such issue ?
Answer: I soak mine for a couple of hours and they seem to last for about an hour. You can soak them in anything from apple juice, water and even cocoa cola
Q:
My smoker came with an extra small tray gray in color anyone know what it's for?
Answer: Extra water pan, tip I use disposable aluminum pan , dripping char the little one hard to clean
Answer: Extra water
Q:
Before initial use, is seasoning the smoker required? If so, what process is recommended ?
Answer: Seasoning is highly recommended before the first use. Using PAM cooking spray is very quick and effective. You'll want to spray down all the interior walls and cooking racks and then let the smoker run on high for about 45 minutes. After that, you'll be all set.
Answer: No seasoning required
Q:
It seems to take a long time for the chips to smoke. What am I doing wrong?
Answer: They won't start smoking immediately. Soak them in water for a few hours. Add a handful at a time. Depending on how much smoke you want. Watch your water level and continue adding chips. Good grilling.
Answer: Turn the burner up to get the chips smoking. No water in the pan. Once smoke is coming out of rear vent fill the pan with water (carefully/slowly) and turn the flame down. Should take dry chips about 5 minutes, soaked chips a little longer.
Answer: Try soaking the chips in water... this should give you good smoke!!
Q:
magnetic hook for hanging sausage would this work?
Answer: Though a magnet would stick to the top since it is a steel cabinet, I don’t believe you would get the holding power needed to support the weight of the sausage. I think your best option is to purchase a sausage hanger that rests on one of the racks with the sausages hanging below it.
Answer: The case is steel so a magnet would be attracted to it. I wouldn't try attaching a magnet to the grates. In other words, I don't know.
Answer: Magnets lose holding power when heated up. Why risk it. Go with a permanent solution that is fixed at a high point in the “smoker”.
Q:
Could this unit be converted from propane to natural gas?
Answer: With a natural gas hose (sold at any plumbing supply) and drilling out the orifice with a 1/16" drill bit, you can convert any propane burner. Toss the supplied hose and regulator. The natural gas coming from your house is regulated for any appliance.
Answer: U have to change the gas regulator an gas jets about a 100.00
Answer: You would need to check w./Cuisinart to see if they offer the orifice you would need to change.
Q:
where is it made?
Answer: Where is it made? America or China? Looking to buy another smoker but only want to support American made.
Answer: My hubby just went out and checked and it is made in China.
Q:
what is the minimum temp on this smoker?
Answer: 180 degrees
Q:
What is size of the Package containing the smoker?
Answer: According to the carton the smoker came in the dimensions are: 19.3 in. X 18.1in. X 36.8in. The NW is 51 pounds, while the GW is 64 pounds.
Answer: I'm assuming you meant the shipping carton. The smoker fits in it perfectly. I did not measure it but am approximating 2 1/2' X 2 1/2' X 3'.. It's pretty heavy and I had a hard time pushing it up a wheel chair ramp. Hope that helps.
Answer: Basically as big as the smoker without the legs. I do not know off hand.
Answer: Do unit is already built so it is a large package. But it’s a great product
Q:
This is the old model in the pictures. do we get the newer ine or not???
Answer: I just bought (5/28/20) COS-244 and it looks exactly like one pictured to the left.
Answer: Seems no one knows, Dave. I smoked for 20 years, quit for 20 years and this habit keeps coming at me. First it was tires, now meats. Good thing cigarettes never reeled me in!
Answer: wtf?
Q:
what is the lowest temperature setting? can it be used for cold smoking?
Answer: I've used my once, and on low, with water in the pan, none in the auxiliary water tray, it ran about 200°. But that was in full sun and it got close to 150° before I ever turned it on. I can't conceive of how you'd use it for cold smoking because the fire box - and chip burner - is directly below the meat box.
Answer: For cold smoking, get an A-Maz-N smoker tray or tube, and use it instead of a charcoal fire. Much cooler, produces great results for smoking cheese, etc.
Answer: The lowest I have had mine is 125 with the water pan full. I haven't ever tried cold smoking.
Q:
is the burner stainless steal?
Answer: Yes. This burner is stainless steel.
Answer: This is the second one we have had, wore the first one out. This holds a lot of food, maintains a consistent level of heat. It is easy to clean and simple to operate after reading the directions.
Q:
Does the Propane version of this smoker do well with Pellets?
Answer: Yes
Q:
What is the max temp achievable?
Answer: We did have our smoker up to 400 degrees once, but we found that temperature was too hot. We like the smoker temperature around 225 degrees most of the time.
Answer: I am having trouble getting over 235
Answer: I've had mine up to 300 degrees.
Q:
What is the overall height including the legs?
Answer: 36.6+10.2=46.8 The 10.2 is the height of the legs mounted on the smoker.
Q:
Can you tell me what the packing size is? (Not only the product but the packing. Many thanks.
Answer: I have thrown the packaging away but it was like 16in. square and 3 1/2 to 4ft tall and the smoker fit real tight inside the box with packing around it. The loose pieces were packed inside the body of the smoker. Best I can do, hope this helps some!
Q:
What is the reason why the regulator can't be removed and connected to house propane?
Answer: We can only recommend our built in regulator, as it has the safety valve. Removing/ altering the regulator voids a warranty.
Answer: Propane and natural gas burners are manufactured with pressure criteria allowances according to the specific burn to oxygen ratio. As long as the correct pressure regulator is in-line to the burner, the unit will be able to function.
Q:
What size is the propane hose? I want to buy a longer one when I get it. Is it a 3/8 or something else?
Answer: Just standard hose/ propane hookup
Answer: We have our QG-008H which is 4 foot long adaptor.
Q:
What is the maximum temperature the smoker box can produce?
Answer: The max temperature on this smoker is 350-375 degrees.
Q:
can it be covnerted to natural gas
Answer: It already uses LP. If you mean connect to a home gas line I don't see why not. The burner and line are your typical LP gas setup.
Answer: Yes you will need a different fitting
Q:
Burner size?
Answer: Maybe 3" X 12 or 14"
Q:
Does this smoker have a cast iron burner?
Answer: no
Q:
Shipment box size?
Answer: Not sure if the exact size, but it wasn’t able to be shipped via USPS due to weight. I’d estimate the box was a couple feet tall.
Answer: About 1.5x 3 ft
Answer: Tall if you look up it will give dimensions
Q:
How much weight will the burner at the bottom of smoker support? With all due respect-I would like to change the water/wood chip tray for larger size.
Answer: The smoker is extremely sturdy. It will support the weight of any tray that would fit into the opening. Best of luck.
Q:
Can you use wood chunks or just chips?
Answer: The reservoir for the wood chips/chunks is kind of small, maybe 6 inches in diameter. You could fit a couple of small chunks in it but you would be better off with chips.
Answer: Either chips or small chunks
Answer: Either chips or very small pieces of wood as the pan is not very big.
Answer: My main complaint. MINISCULE AMOUNT OF CHIPS CAN BE ADDED.
Q:
How do you remove used wood chips while smoking to add new wood chips without getting burned or spilling old wood chips in the water tray?
Answer: Changing the smoke chips is not necessary on this unit. The space provided allows for plenty of time do smoke and if more is needed then new wood chips can be added directly to the old ones.
Answer: My husband and I love this. We use tongs if we have to. Usually before we start we clean it thoroughly. If we have to make any adjustments we use tongs to pull it out and then grasp a hot pad to balance it and then it takes just a few minutes and it’s back in
Answer: Use gloves or potholder
Q:
Is it OK to store this smoker on a patio that is not covered? About the same as a normal gas grill?
Answer: I store mine in the garage for the winter. Probably would be ok with a cover outside but I think it would rust if exposed all winter. LOVE this smoker...I have used it weekly for the last 6 months with no issues.
Answer: Cover for this grill is only $22.I would not because of burner and electronic igniter.
Answer: Not sure for how long but they do make a cover.
Answer: Yes but I would recommend a cover for it between uses.
Answer: I WOULD SAY YES, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE INSIDE OUT OF WEATHER TO CONTROL THE FINISH. I KEEP MINE IN MY GARAGE AND PULL IT OUT SIDE TO SMOKE ON IT.
Q:
Does anyone know what gauge / thickness of the steel used for the main body of the smoker?
Answer: All I can tell you is we have had many smokers and they all have the same hull except for the square ones. Which lose heat.
Q:
How much weight will the burner at the bottom of smoker support?
Answer: Nothing should go directly on the water pan outside of the water/ wood chip tray
Answer: I would estimate, about 40 lbs, it’s seems strong.
Q:
how much does this smoker weigh?
Answer: Actually it weighs 51 pounds.
Answer: About 40 pounds maybe, not too heavy to move around yet won't blow away in the wind.
Q:
I want to know how the oven is package for the delivery? Due I want to export first 1 outside the country. Dimensions and assemble?
Answer: I do not know the dimensions of the box. It is very well packaged and protected. The box was not that big and this is not a heavy item.
Answer: It is packaged in a large box. I do not have the dimensions. The smoker is disassembled, so you will need to assemble it yourself. It took me about an hour to assemble it.
Answer: Package was ok in big cardboard box well wrap but I don’t know if it is good enough to different country assembly was easy it took some time but not hard
Answer: In big box with smaller boxes containing parts and Styrofoam.
Q:
Is this smoker insulated?
Answer: Not that I know. It is very Heavy Gauged compared to my previous smoker. My previous smoker was larger and weighed less. I had a Smoke Hollow for almost 10 Years prior to this one. I prefer this one.
Answer: No, but it has a rather large burner. Don't think it would be a problem except maybe in very cold weather plus wind.
Answer: No
Answer: No, but it works very well.
Q:
Can you use 30 lb. propane tank
Answer: No, this uses 20 lb propane tanks.
Answer: Yes. It has a standard connection. The tank sits away from the unit. Anything bigger you would probably want to use a longer connector hose.
Answer: Yea you sure can with the proper adapter, be careful after my 5th use this smoker cooked itself into my food
Q:
What's the Drip tray size? And do i need it?
Answer: It's either 12x12 or 13x13. Either way you don't have to use it. Depending on what I'm smoking, sometimes I use it for more water to bring the temp. down or just use it as it is intended when I'm smoking something real fatty. The extra water also helps with moisture for the meat. I live at 9,000 FT. so you will need to experiment.
Answer: It’s a nice size drip tray... and you absolutely need it
Answer: It doesn't have a drip tray. It has a combo water and chip tray that is the same size as the racks. So, the juices from the meat drip into the wood chips. It does come with an extra water tray that you could use as a drip pan.
Answer: Drip tray is needed to put seasoning and liquid for flavoring your meats that you smoke. Make sure to keep moisture while smoking meat. If dries put your meat may smell burnt.
Answer: There is no drip tray for this unit.
Q:
Can the hose & regulator be removed & this be hooked up to house propane ?
Answer: No it cannot.
Answer: It’s electric so no
Q:
Can I use this for roasting a single brisket? Or is it too big to use for such small quantities?
Answer: Yes you can use it for a brisket
Answer: Yes. Good for portioned meat or fish.
Answer: Sure. The smoker doesn't need to be full to work.
Answer: You can use it for anything.
Q:
Can I use pellets or just wood chips?
Answer: We recommend wood chips for best smoke.
Answer: Yes you can, but if you wet them, they will turn to sawdust. Ether way you can still use them.
Q:
Can you use a wired thermometer with this?
Answer: This smoker has a built in thermometer to read the internal temperature of the smoker which is what we recommend using.
Answer: Yes
Q:
Can I cover the integrated wood and water tray with foil and still get smoke and less mess?
Answer: Yes, but it will be less smoke.
Answer: i dont see why not. i cover mine up. usually replace it after every use
Q:
Whats the gage of the steel?
Answer: 70% steel, 30% stainless steel
Answer: 12
Q:
Can you leave this out in the rain ?
Answer: We recommend a cover if it is left out in the rain. The cover model for this smoker is CGC-10244
Answer: You can, but I would recommend a weatherproof cover for it, it lasts longer, and metal in general should be kept as dry as possible.
Q:
Is the propane model insulated?
Answer: No
Q:
Can this be transported on it's side, as in an RV, or will that damage the unit?
Answer: Yes but interior racks and their retainers will have to be removed : 2 minutes time

Product reviews of Cuisinart COS-244 Vertical 36" Propane Smoker, Black
Bob Howell : Produced Low Heat, difficult to assemble
I was frustrated even before I had finished unpackaging the smoker; so much cardboard and plastic, so many parts. The engineers need to rethink the pre-assembly processes.
I cooked two Boston butts for 6 hours in 90-plus degree outside heat and the smoker would not climb above 125 degree F. Had to finish them in my kitchen oven.

tanyau : Have not used it yet
Easy to assemble
Julie : Keep the water pan full.
I love the separate door for reloaded smoker chips. I have done an Italian Roast Beef, 4 batches of Salmon and Elk Jerky. Keeping the water full is key to maintaining the moisture. I love this smoker.
Gardiner : Love the smell and Smokey taste!
Overall great but I admit it was hard to keep a constant temperature even with no wind the day we used it! Although the wings and sausages were to die for! I recommend to anyone! We are new to this and learning as we go but love it so far! The racks were very easy to clean I must admit to my surprise. 2 of the racks I did not do anything and the third I sprayed with Pam. All easy to clean! Give it a 10 on 10 for taste!
Bernie Schneider : Awesome Smoker
tried it for the first time with a huge batch of ribs and they turned out awesome...the steamer is perfect for fall off the bone ribs, used the 2-2-1 method being 2 hours of smoke, 2 hours of steam and 1 hour in tinfoil at 200 degrees...killer ribs
Brian D Welch : Great Smoker for the price
This is a well made smoker & is a joy to use. We smoked leg of lamb, salmon, roast beef, ribs etc. and everything was great !!
Rhonda : Love it!
Highly recommended.
Kelly : Smoke em if you got em
This is a HUGE hit with the boys. Hubby and son are smoking everything they can think of. Our smoker is well seasoned and used often.
Lisa J : Easy to use and assemble.
I got this smoker for my husband for Father’s Day. He was so surprised! He has used it several times and made delicious food every time. I would definitely purchase it again. Good value for the price also.
Susan : I love love love this smoker!!!
So easy to use even for this grandma!
Amazon Customer : It’s just sad
This thing won’t even heat up. I have it on high and can barely keep it above 200°. This thing is designed to do one thing and it can’t do it. I had to get another regulator for it right off the start. How it has such high reviews I have no idea. Also if you’re using it out side and you have even a tiny breeze forget about it! The flame will constantly go out. Been smoking meat for 15 years and got this for easy quick smoking and haven’t got to eat a single thing out of it. Always finish it in the oven.
hannah dudek : Temperature is so hard to control
It is so difficult to maintain a consistent temperature and to get it up to a higher temp. Every time the wind blows the temp drops dramatically.
Ray Conkle : Five Stars

Kat : Great

R Crawford : Big smoker, small price, better than others.
Assembly is very straight forward and requires pretty minimal know how. Great smoker, bigger than my previous electrical unit and of better build quality. I've had two electric Masterbuilt units before and this one is superior. About 4 smokeouts in with this one. I've begun to use pellets instead of chips to great effect. Get a wireless thermometer and you can't lose.
Ted Smith : Exceeded my expectations
Well packaged, assembly was very simple, unit is sturdier than most I have seen.
I have smoked chicken wings, whole chicken, pork back and side ribs, and sausage. all were delicious

william nabak : Struggle with temperature control
The temperature control was difficult
J. Davis : Works Great and my husband likes it too much
I like that it’s easy to use and takes less work and smells better than a wood smoker, but I’m a little sick of smoked meat. My husband likes it a little too much, so we have smoked meat more than I’d like.
Ed Barr : Good/Bad
Could be so much better with an improved water tray. Currently too thin and requires constant oversight. As noted on other reviews.
Currently experimenting on DIY fix.
Sturdy and easy to construct. Door is a nice tight fit.

C. Hill : Don't bother putting water in the bottom pan.
Use the extra pan (provided) on the first rack for water. That leaves 3 racks for smoking. For the price, I don't think you can beat this.
Jen Guzzi : All and all I like it
Solid performer, I’ve had it for 4 years, the temp gauge is junk, got a wireless gauge, fix that problem the extra water pan is not useful but the original pan is good once you figure it out, for the money worth it.. I actually bought another one for my lake house

Kymberly Wilson : Delicious!!
Amazing for the beginner smoker!!
Amazon Customer : Electric igniter doesn't work
Works great! Have to build a shelter around the base to keep the wind from blowing out the flame. Only reason for 3 starts is that the electric igniter doesn't work and I have to use a match otherwise it's great

Went together fairly easy, does take more than 20 minutes with hand tools. Good solid build, some minor smoke leakage around the door seal, but can live with that. The one major issue is the combination wood chip and water plate; does not work. They do give you another seperate water drip pan, strongly suggest you use that and just put wood chips in the lower plate. Good value for the money.
Bek : Inside will not hold up to repeated use.
GARBAGE! BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! Used the smoker 6 times, 6th smoke and the paint starts bubbling. I cleaned it after every use, with a rag and soap and water. Our first smoker, and our last Cuisinart appliance we will EVER buy. Don't waste your money on this one! I tried to upload photos but it would not load them.
Bob Howell : Produced Low Heat, difficult to assemble
I was frustrated even before I had finished unpackaging the smoker; so much cardboard and plastic, so many parts. The engineers need to rethink the pre-assembly processes.
I cooked two Boston butts for 6 hours in 90-plus degree outside heat and the smoker would not climb above 125 degree F. Had to finish them in my kitchen oven.

Amazon Customer : It was worth the money easy to assemble
Had to keep adding water

USING IT ALL THE TIME!
LULU : Smokey the ????
First time using a smoker everything seems good can't compare to any other since have never owned one. Door latch became loose wasn't sure how tight to make the handles. Material seems pretty stable and durable. Should use a different method for temperature instead of the thermometer on the front is not accurate so far. Can't think of anything else but has made some good food for me so far for an inexperienced smoker following online recipes.
Jeffrey Potter : GREAT LOOKING / CAME BROKE...FAIR TO POOR PERFORMANCE
Was super excited to get this smoker. Looks GREAT. Upon assembly, found out the regulator attachment to the 20lb tank was broken. Leaked horribly. Went to True Value and purchased a new regulator and hose ($36 bucks). Attached the new regulator and fired right up without any further problems. Problem now is I can't get the unit to heat up past 220 degrees and she's maxed out on HIGH. The vent is fully closed and the flame is roaring. I think for the price you get a tin box and burner and that's it. The woodchip tray is kind of a joke. It's a square pan with a raised 6" lip in the center to place chips into. I'll be doing modifications for sure on this later. For serious smoking, go with a unit with insulated sides and doors since you can't get over 220 degrees. I see a huge problem in winter months getting this thing even close to cooking temperature. Guess this will be my summer only smoker.
Julie : Keep the water pan full.
I love the separate door for reloaded smoker chips. I have done an Italian Roast Beef, 4 batches of Salmon and Elk Jerky. Keeping the water full is key to maintaining the moisture. I love this smoker.
Kara : DO NOT BUY ANYTHING THAT IS DAMAGAD ON AMAZON
I know I bought a damaged item but the description said functionable this is not functionable I will have to spend hours in order for the hinges to line up I don't even know if it will hold the heat or smoke
you tell me that this is acceptable when it doesn't work

amazing : Great
Good smoker for beginners and seasoned smokers alike. Temp is consistent but obviously dependent in weather.
Justin : Will not get above 225 in 87 degree weather..
If I could give it zero stars I would.. Easy to put together, came with extra water pan, front door leaks a lot of smoke so probably part of heat problem. I have the unit in location out of the wind and I tried different propane tanks that work fine on my 10 year old gas smoker and grill. This smoker will not get hot, like all the heat goes into its legs and lower pan. On Low it wouldn't show above 150 degrees or any weather under 80 degrees outside. Going to call manufacturer as something has to be broken. Pretty disappointing. The water tray/drip/wood tray seem to keep all the heat from going up into the food section of the smoker. Seems like holes should be drilled in center where wood chips go and allow more heat to rise.
Ted Smith : Exceeded my expectations
Well packaged, assembly was very simple, unit is sturdier than most I have seen.
I have smoked chicken wings, whole chicken, pork back and side ribs, and sausage. all were delicious

Jason Weigel : Pretty nice smoker.
This smoker was very easy to assemble. I did it in my dining room in 45 minutes or so. Instructions are good enough for anyone with any mechanical ability to figure out. I will say that Cuisinart should not even bother including tools. They fit the fasteners very poorly, and honestly, if you don’t have the required philips screwdriver and a couple of basic wrenches, you probably shouldn’t be tackling this project. Anyway, I’ve smoked some pork tenderloin and ribs since I’ve had it, and both turned out perfect. I took some advice from other reviewers and used the extra pan for water on the bottom rack and filled the chip/water tray with chips. Worked excellent. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because I feel that temperature control is a bit touchy. I may add a different style vent. Overall, great value for the money.
jason : Heat issue with Cusinart Regulator off Propabe Tank. Easy fix over sized regualtor see photo
Only big issue was lack of Heat No Smoke with Original Regulator. I purchased the upgraded 50psi regulator huge difference small price upgrade, plus I also installed the fire tape the seal the doors in better for heat and smoke. I can get smoke in 8 mins if I want.
Bryan Carney : Awesome
This thing is an absolute beast. Won't break the bank and gets the job done. Great product.
Jeremy chad rogers : Great smoker!
