Broil King BK923610 Heavy Duty Vertical Charcoal Smoker with Electronic Ignition

Easy to follow instructions. We had great success the first time. Little internet research on controlling temperature and following the instruction manual.

For my first smoker, this was the best gift I received in May 2017. I've used it many times in all season and was never disappointed. Today here in Edmundston NB it is -24c with wind chill of -35c and I have a pork shoulder smoking with apple wood whisky mixture marinade and infusion. This smoker is real Canadian Icon.

Just got this unit a week ago. Assembled it in an hour and a half .I am impressed with double wall construction, and doors the seal shut. I just cooked some of the best ribs I have had in quite some time. I have been smoking meats on an offset vertical smoker that I got about 10 years ago and just plain wore it out. I always had good results but it took a lot of wood and charcoal. The Broil King used about 1/5 the fuel and what was more surprising was I probably got as good a batch of ribs as any I have smoked in the last 10 years,on my very first try. This is well worth the money.

This is the first smoker I have owned. It was easy to put together; instruction were well written and easily understood. The quality of the product is exceptional, especially considering how inexpensive it is compared to similar products. Parts are easy to clean. The wheels allow for easy movement. As a beginner smoker, I have enjoyed learning with my Broil King! So far I have smoked pork ribs, chickens, chicken pieces, sausage, and pork butts. All turned out fantastic, with my wife commenting that the ribs where "the best I ever had!"

Bought this about a month back and so far it's been turning out some fabulous low and slow food. Would recommend to anyone looking for vertical style smoker. I've had the best performance removing the smoke chip box and lowering the water pan to the middle rack level so I can easily slide it in and out to add water. The initial setup height made it difficult to slide out to add water once it was hot. Using chunk wood now which I just add to the charcoal for the beautiful smokey taste. Performance of my Broil King gasser convinced me to take a chance on this new smoker. Definitely worth it.

Just got my new Broil King Smoke, and absolutely love it. Very easy to remove and replace shelves as needed. The Turkey rack is fabulous. Racks were easy to clean, and just love the rate of smoke I am getting. So far have cooked lots of different foods, and not once have I been disappointed.

Took a chance on redeeming points from work's safety program and picked this smoker. Only thing I'd encourage after choosing this is a thermometer, one that uses a probe so you can keep the box closed. I'm smoking in -20C temps or colder less you need to look the better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had this for about 11/2 yrs and I enjoy trying new recipes. Everything that I've smoked in this has been a hit. It has become a great addition to the family and a great hobby.

I've only used this smoker a few times. The racks are very hard to pull out due to the side that hold them in fall out all the time. And every time I've used it water leaks everywhere even though it is on a perfectly flat concrete patio. Not sure it was worth the price. Bought it for my husband for our 15th wedding anniversary and we are not happy.

Adjustable grid rails keep falling off. I keep burning my hands to fix it especially when I chang the grates top to bottom, bottom to top. Upper cabinet door leaks smoke & heat by the hinges. Other small things like the accu-Temp Thermometer 50 degrees off. The roto draft Damper loose fitting. The keg well built what Happened to the smoke!
