Questions about Oklahoma Joe's 19202100 Bronco Pro Drum Smoker, Orange

Does it come with a cover? Or do you buy separate?

Answer: The cover is sold separately. The cover for this Bronco Pro Drum Smoker is model # 1756851W04.

Answer: You have to buy it separately. You should buy a second cooking grate too.

Answer: You have to buy separate. It does not come with a cover.

Answer: It does come with a cover

Answer: Have to purchase separate, great pit though

How many gallons is this bronco pro drum? i am looking for a 55 gallon drum and can't decide between this or the hunsaker vortex drum.

Answer: i would buy this and buy the hunsaker vortex ... save you like three hundred bucks. I have bought the hunsaker vortex for my other drums and wsms....

What are the shipping dimensions?

Will a 22.5 cooking crate fit in the pro?

Answer: The cooking grate in this Bronco Pro Drum Smoker has a 21.5" diameter. A cooking grate larger than this would be too big.

Answer: Yes.

Os there any one dumb enough to pay this much money for a charcoal smoker ?

Answer: Better tha a freakin trager, they are junk

you know company that can ship this tome to philippines

Is there a computer blower compatible with this smoker?

Answer: This smoker is so precise and stable you won’t need one... i have used this smoker already for brisket, chicken, and ribs. I literally left my brisket at 300 degrees for three hours and came back and the temp was like 298.

Answer: I hooked up a thermoworks smoke x2 to it with billows. I had to cut the bolt that holds the intake and toss the gasket on the billows. Works great! It does need a cooler fire than straight charcoal. I mix in wood chunks. It’s a unique flavor. I don’t get the bark other cooking methods get, but you can fix that easy enough on a Weber. My guests tend not to care and the food just disappears.

What is the lowest temperature at which you get good smoke?

Answer: 225°

Is there a gas burner insert for this model? For those lazy days when you dont feel like building a coal/wood fire.

Answer: This Bronco Pro Drum smoker can be used as a grill. Give us a call at 1-800-318-7744 and we'll be happy to provide more information.

How durable is the orange paint? Does it still look good after use?

Answer: Don’t order from Amazon. They use a 2nd party shipping company who is horrible. Never received the smoker. The company has the worse reviews. I had to get my money back and order it directly thru Oklahoma Joe’s.

Answer: Perfect, I have had it for about a year now, I use it quite often and no issues with fading or anything

What's the diameter of the intake tube?

Answer: Thank you for reaching out. The air intake on this smoker has a diameter of 1.97".

Answer: Diameter of the intake tube is 1 7/8"

Whats the point of having this as "Prime" if it ships in 1 to 3 months?

Since the Bronco and Bronco Pro pit smokers suggest hanging meats like ribs, what is the max inside distance for ribs for each smoker?

Answer: I dont Know because I never measured. I have Had to bend slabs in half to keep equal distance from fire.

Answer: I leave about 2" between ribs when doing a full barrel

Would like to purchase another gril grate. What is the model # of the grate that would accomodate the Bronco Pro?

Answer: The cooking grate for this Bronco Pro Drum Smoker is model # 20991010. Give us a call at 1-800-318-7744 and we'll be happy to help with ordering.

What is the Return policy

Can I add a second cooking grate in between the top grate and the heat deflector?

Answer: Yes

What is the difference between the oklahoma joe bronco and the oklahoma joe bronco pro?

Answer: The main difference is the size. The Bronco Pro measures 28.75" x 48" x 40" and the Bronco measures 25.4" x 43.3" x 30.3". The Bronco Pro has a 21.5" cooking surface and is able to hold enough fuel for over 15 hours of smoking time. The Bronco has an 18" cooking surface and is able to hold enough fuel for over 10 hours of smoking time. Both of these are fantastic smokers. Give us a call at 1-866-239-6777 and we will be able to provide more information.

Answer: The biggest difference are the fire baskets. The pro can hold 17 pounds of charcoal vs non-pro holds only 8. Pro has 21.5 grill vs non-pro at 18. The pro is certainly bigger but oddly has the same amount of vertical space for hanging meat (21.5 inches). Im also finding that the pro produces a more accurate heat. The pro also comes with a logo plate that can be mounted on the back.

Is the 22" Weber grate fit in this grill/smoker?

Answer:

Answer: It says it has a 21.5 inch cooking surface on the Oklahoma Joe’s website so I think it could fit a Weber 22 inch grate.

Answer: Wile I do not have the 22” Weber grate I’ve been told it does fit. Any 22” grate should.

Answer: Yes I believe it will

Answer: Yes it does

Why is it double the price on Amazon??

Answer: I bought mine direct from okie joes

Since i want to hang my ribs when smoking, what the max length of the racks i can hang in the bronco and the bronco pro?

Answer: About 20"

What’s your return policy ?

Answer: Yes

Product reviews of Oklahoma Joe's 19202100 Bronco Pro Drum Smoker, Orange

David Cosilion : Amazing smoker

I use the Weber as a smoker and there is a big difference between a real smoker and a Weber grill the flavor is better on a real smoker and I am very happy with this Oklahoma Joe the only thing is around the Assembly of the two barrels you would need to put some sort of high temperature sealant in order to keep grease from dripping through the sides. The smoker will last you about a good 10 12 hours depending how much charcoal you put in the basket but my brisket and my pork shoulder have came out perfect and delicious. Also the temperature on this smoker is very accurate very consistent making it easy to cook for long hours.

Amazon Customer : Used it twice now loving it

Put it together snd I am loving it
The gf is happy cause I’m back to smoking meat

Heather Luchi : Bronco pro

I was so excited to find this drum smoker and get it for my birthday. And even better the bronco orange, but once I opened the package I noticed around the bottom weld edges the paint is chipping/peeling off. another thing was right out of the box it is covered in black grease as seen in the photos. I had clean hands before and during assembly so I know it wasn’t from something on my hands. Very disappointed for being an Oklahoma joes product. Once built the smoker is awesome and would be a five star but given the lack of quality control, earned a 3 star given the price point.

David Cosilion : Amazing smoker

billy cooley : Great smoker

Better than advertised

Corin : Good as gold

Best thing since sliced bread.
I absolutely love it. Once you learn how to manage the heat it’s basically a set it and forget it operation.
Well made and super user friendly.
I would only suggest using a heat resistant sealant when putting together where the screws go as some have mentioned grease build up can cause leaks. We have not had any issues what so ever and highly recommended this smoker.

Amazon Customer : Awesome smoker

Chicken turned out perfect. Probably had something to do with the chef! He was impressed with the smoker. :)

David Cosilion : Amazing smoker

ChunkyButt : Pro not as good as original

The Pro isn’t as efficient as the regular Bronco. The extra size is nice, but I havent been able to dial in the consistent heat temp yet
