I always wanted a smoker that sits on a trailer, but didn't want to pay 2 or 3 thousand for a smoker. I found this little Brinkmann and cooked 2 pork shoulders when I brought it home. Also smoked a 12lb. turkey and a whole ham on Thanksgiving. This little guy holds 12 racks of ribs, (with rib racks) and plenty of chicken. Buying another one for local competition.
We purchased this smoker to smoke the Turkey for Thanksgiving, the Turkey came out with a beautiful color and it was so moist. My mother had a smoker also and that what made us get ours. We have used it at least 3 more times since purchasing it at Thanksgiving. It is perfect. This smoker is very east to use.
Many smokers are the round design where you have to lift off the lid and remove the top rack if you need to do anything with food on the lower rack. With this Brinkman model, you open from the side to access the racks and the charcoal pit. Much easier, especially if you are smoking several different items at the same time which require different cooking times. Great design, great product!
Use primarily to smoke fish, easy to make additional racks, fun to experiment with, great value for the money, very glad we bought it
This is a good first smoker. To see what smoking is all about and if you have the skills to do it right. For $60. it's a good deal but it is light duty you get what you pay for. Will I buy again? No but I'll buy a better one.
I purchased one smoker and it came with a door that would not hang correctly. After much pulling, adjusting and improvising...I was able to make it work. I purchased a SECOND smoker for my dad and the interior ledge where the rack sits was broken and the there were problems with the door. After making holes and modifications to this SECOND smoker...it was ok. It's a great deal for what you get, if you don't mind working with the parts to make the parts 'fit' (or going thru the trouble of returning the product). Ribs and chicken are fabulous once you get it going.
This is a great smoker for beginners. I've had this smoker for over 2 years, and I've smoked lots of Salmon, Striped Bass, and Halibut. It can be a bit tricky to keep it at the optimum temperature, but experiment with varying the amount of charcoal & use of vents and you'll get it down in no time. I highly recommend you do a 'dry run' with no meat/nuts/veggies your first time just so you can experiment with the temperature and smoke control. I would recommend wood chunks in this smoker, as opposed to wood chips. The wood chips produce more smoke, but they also dry faster and burn hotter. When I have used wood chips in this smoker, I've placed them in a vented aluminum foil 'pouch' to keep the chips from creating too much unwanted heat. I've gotten to the point that this smoker is just a bit too small for my uses. Only 2 cooking racks doesn't allow me to smoke more than a few pounds of fish at a time.
Don't expect great engineering, but it is certainly usable, and I do like mine. The metal is on the thin side, but I have managed to get mine to 250F when it was 12F outside (with the water pan removed though). You will probably need to be handy to get it working properly. I didn't like the way the door was latching, it just didn't instill confidence. I realized that I needed to bend the walls of the smoker in just slighly (If you need to do this, and you probably will, be sure to remove any racks first). After that it latched just fine, I've had no problems with it accidentally opening. Also, the door wasn't held on quite right (it was actually able to fall off), looks like maybe they cut the top bar that it "hinges" on a bit too short. I added a washer to the bottom bar/hinge and it was just enough to raise it up so it is held in just fine now. I haven't actually used the water bowl in mine yet as it is winter and I'm in New England. My first smoke (after proper seasoning) I was able to get it to 250F without the water bowl, and it was about 12F outside. And with these kind of temperatures it makes it a lot easier to do a cold smoke. One minor modification that I did was to put a pizza stone on the very bottom of the unit. I figure it might help to keep the heat in, and also help to protect the bottom from rusting. I'm going to try adding a pizza stone to where the water bowl should be, just to keep some of the direct heat off of the bottom rack. Maybe I will add a small bowl with water on top of that, just to add a little steam. I did some spareribs with lump charcoal and hickory chunks. Kept it on for about 5 hours. Delicious! Falling from the bone, and a great smoke flavor! Mmmm--mmmm good! Overall, I am VERY pleased with my smoker. I really like having the slide-out racks. The built-in thermometer is nice too. For the price, you can't go wrong. As long as you are handy you should be able to make it work. I'm looking forward to using mine for a long time. Well... hopefully anyway.
This is an ok smoker for the first timers. The inside setup is what I like about it. Much easy to add your water and coals\wood than the round smoker. If you have any experience with well built smoker you will be little down on this, but again this is for the first timer getting their feet wet with Bar-Qin. I do have one but find myself cooking on my other smokers than this one.
I recently bought the smoker about 2 hrs ago after looking at it on this site. I found that the door was not hinged and was supposed to be. I also found it to be a lot thinner that I expected. Also, don't expect to us it right out the box. You have to cure it first and that takes at least 3 hrs. We will see how it does, when i get to smoke something.
