Charcoal enthusiasts, take heart! With this Dyna-Glo vertical offset smoker, you can now smoke your favorite foods with your favorite wood chips AND your favorite fuel source, charcoal! Vertical smokers are ideal for capturing the maximum smoke flavor, so we've included 6 height-adjustable cooking grates, with a total of 1,176 square inches of cooking space, to accommodate different sizes and types of food. Since indirect heat is ideal for slow cooking (and infusing smoke flavor), the offset functionality of this smoker is designed to keep direct heat away from the food, which helps to prevent food on the bottom racks from cooking too fast. The combination charcoal and wood chip tray are made with heavy-gauge, porcelain-enameled steel for hours of maintenance-free cooking.
This smoker is exactly what I expected it to be. Everything is there to create some great Bbq. Tweaked it some by adding two more thermometers, door seals on both doors and caulk for the seams. Holds temp beautifully. Once I got the heat right it was game on. Being able to see the temp in the firebox is critical so you know when to add wood or charcoal. So far cooked chicken on it twice and just did a 9.5 lb pork shoulder that when done the meat just fell apart and had an amazing flavor. This unit is just the perfect size, not bulky and I definitely recommend the cover that fits it. Seasoned both boxes before I cooked anything and also added a hole 1/4 inch hole for a meat thermometer in the smoker box up in the top corner. Brisket and ribs are next.. James. Bear, DE.
