  • I made a quick how to video on how to use a offset smoker. I do not show you how to cook meat but rather I just go over the basics to the offset smoker and how to control your heat.

This video really helped give me the confidence to give it a try though. I have my first batch of bacon I just finished curing and I'm going to smoke it today with some mesquite chips! Thank you for making this a quick and concise video!

    Thank you I am glad you explained how to use one in a short amount of time. I had been looking at those at Homedepot and wondered about how to use one. So basically one compartment is where you put your charcoal/wood for the fire and the heat and smoke generated fills the larger compartment where you put all the meat

    Bro, I LOVE YOU!!! I bought a Texas smoker this weekend and just watched 2 hrs of freeking USELESS videos showing me what people smoke, without showing me HOW to smoke!
    Thanx for showing me, and others, how I should actually use it, you are the best!
    No where online do they actually show you how to use the woodchips etc on the charcoal!
    Keep up the good work!

    Dutch, thanks for keeping it simple. I have been using a Charbroiler gas BBQ and a Weber kettle for years and years. I enjoy outdoor cooking , now I want to do it 'the right way' since I am retired and have the time.Saw a Char Broiller Smoker Champ at Home Depot today, and the price is right. The Weber will be shit canned soon.I've talked to so many people about BBQ and Smoking and everyone is an expert with too many complicated rules to BBQ and Smoking.Your video hits the point and is 'to the point'. Thanks.

    Great, great video!👍🏼
    Also, if your temperature stalls, you can also move your fuel source (logs) around ,or even flip them for an even burn. It's all about practice and learning how your off-set smoker works.

    Good video. To the point. I don't know how ling I've had mine. It's a lot thinker metal than the ones they sell now. I cook/ smoke all kinds of stuff on it. Right now there's an 8lb ham on it. Temp is easy to maintain. A note, make sure to keep your thermometer probe clean otherwise it can give you a false readin. Love mine.It's in constant use. Did pork loin chops on it last night.

    @MLFranklin Před 2 lety +1

    Wow, major flashback. I had this same exact model over 20 years ago except that I got it on sale ($100 out the door) at Orchard Supply Hardware and it was missing the firebox. I had no idea it even needed a firebox. I had no idea how to smoke meats. So I treated it like a Weber. It worked fine as a regular grill. I even did some indirect by putting a fire at one end and tossing plum logs on top of the charcoal. Eventually it rusted out and collapsed. Later I discovered smoked meats and wound up buying a vertical propane cheap at Home Depot. And then that rusted out. I'm in the market now, and having studied different kinds of smokers, I'm realizing that was I had would have been ideal. Funny how that works out. I'd like to build one.
