Offset Smokers

[eddyc01]

I notice many on here are smoking with pellet grills.
Are there any others that have a good old wood burning offset smoker?
Mine is a 20” Horizon Classic smoker.
My wood of choice is oak and cherry.

Let’s hear from some offset owners…

I started with an Old County BBQ pits Brazos and now have a 24”x48” Rockin W Smoker. Nothing beats real wood smoke I use hickory and Oak mainly. Red and white oak.

I don't have one but I want one. I want at least 1/4" steel. I looked at the Brazos but they're Half 3/16" steel now. The lids are 3/16" also. I thought the lids were 1/4" in the past.

I use a wsm but have considered getting an offset. I believe that the box store offsets are junk. There is a local company that manufactures nice ones but I have not been able to justify the money so far. The WSM works really well and I wish for a larger smoker only once every year or two.

Here's my old smoker I had to sell before I moved. It was purchased from Lowes and served me well for many years. I ran a lot of ribs through this thing. I loved this thing but just didn't have the room on the moving truck.

I want to get another one but first I need to make sure I can secure a source for wood.

I have an older OK Joe made with the heavy steel pipe. Love it, just takes more baby sitting than the egg or MES. I think we got it in San Antonio @ 1989.

I’m thinking about a pellet grill, although I don’t think you could ever replace the smoking flavor of an offset.

Don’t do it, unless you don’t care for a nice dark bark and would rather have a light mahogany bark…..

Here is my Lang 84 Deluxe Reverse Flow stick burner.
Large enough to do a Whole Hawg and a warmer to store your side dishes.
My wood of choice is Cherry and Oak, small splits without the bark.

Have a home built offset made with an 80gal air tank and an old wood stove.
