Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Okay, first of all, this is not a specialized smoker, something that seems to have surprised some other people. It can add smoke flavor, but if you want truly smoked foods, this isn't going to deliver what you are looking for.
It's best purpose in my opinion is to add functionality to your propane grill. It's basically a pan that serves to help control the heat better. Is it something that you will use every single time you get out your grill? Probably not, unless fish and vegetables are the primary items hitting your grill.
All in all, I'd say if you frequently do more than the typical brisket/burger/sausage kind of grilling, you may find this of use. It's not huge, so it's not something you'd choose to use when feeding a crowd. That also means it will fit on smaller propane grills or into your dishwasher. The grate-like inner pan will allow you to easily manage those veggies, seafood, etc.
This isn't something every outdoor cook is going to love or need. It's not made out of stainless steel to last a lifetime either. It is an additional tool to make your cook outs a bit more interesting than just scorching some hot dogs though.

I was surprised to read the reviews about it being too small. I can put a whole fryer chicken inside the basket of this cooker and it cooks it to perfection. So far, i have no complaints. I have cooked fish, shrimp, and pork loin with great results. Also fits perfectly in my dishwasher.Best Deals for Char-Broil Infusion Cooker
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I love grilling. And since I live near a place that makes the most awesome brats I've ever had (cajun, garlic, onion, etc), I spend a lot of time on my grill. That being said, I'm a simple eater. I like meats and potatoes and veggies, especially when I'm grilling. Simple things that are quick and easy to do.And while I love throwing onions, mushrooms, peppers, and such on shishkabobs, tending them (especially in winter) gets to be a bit of a pain to keep them from getting too dried out or blackened around the edges. So I thought this would be a handy thing to try.
For those looking into this, there's a video on youtube showing it in use, both with liquid and with the wood chips. And their website has an online recipe page for things like pork, shrimp, salmon, and chicken.
First thing I liked no more flareups. No more rushing out there when I hear the juice from something sizzling on the burners in case it was greasy enough to be flammable (lost count of how many "fireballs" I've had opening the top of my grill when doing some brats). The second, it really did help things cook evenly. I played with some beer in the bottom, I tried a marinade, even did the wood chips as well, though I only put in a few since I didn't want to overdo it by putting in too many... I'll have to experiment a bit to see what ends up tasting the best. But everything I've done so far has turned out better than I had hoped.
So it does work, but the size is limiting for many people. I live alone with my 9 year old son, so the size works for us, but for larger numbers, it can be limiting. Not very expensive though, and easy enough to buy two if you really need to give yourself some more room.
