I oredered this smoker and it was very easy to assemble , the smoker works great the water pan is too small which means you must keep a close eye on the smoker to ensure water does not run out and your meat gets dry . After the first use the temp. guage quit working , i figured i would still use. However after the second use the plug in prong melted and i can no longer use it . I am currently waiting on replacement and hopefully will not have the same problems. I would not buy this product it is not worth the money , Lowes has a better smoker that is half the price and has a much bigger water pan .

I recieved the smoker on the delivey date promised. It had a couple minor shipping dings. The hinges for the doors were put on with pop rivets that had been popped before they were drawn down tight. I drilled those out and put in some metal screws. The doors don't close tight a situation I plan to remedy before the next use. The inner wall had been put on with screws that were the same size as the holes they were to fit and so I replaced all of them with the next size up of metal screws.

All of that said my first run was a total success and could not have asked for a better job of smoking and the pepperoni and sausage I smoked turned out great and would have been even better if I hadn't tried for a couple more hours of smoke which dried them out a little. But that was operators error and this is the first sausage and pepperoni I have tried to make. The flavor sure beats the soy impregnated store sausage and not having all that fat, which we trimmed off, in the finished product a real plus.

The thermometer on the door proved to be quite accurate and something that I will use in addition to the meat thermometer in the next batch. I got my sausage making supplies from Eldon's Jerky and sausage supplies in Kooskia Idaho. I started with their sample package and a couple others not in the pack. I like all of the ones I have tried so far. Also their casings. The smoker is a real value and would have been excellent had a little more care in assembling been taken. How ever since we do a lot of things in our shop these were not as large a problem as they might be to someone with no knowledge or tools. Visit our web site to see what we do in our shop.

Best Deals for Vertical Electric Smoker

I purchased this smoker basically for the ease of use and because I also own a Brinkmann propane gas grill. The overall quality is good for the price I paid. Assembling the smoker was easy and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. There were no missing parts and the smoker went together quickly. Another reason I purchased this smoker is the availability of replacement parts from the Brinkmann website if any are needed in the future. The control for the heater element is simple, just like an electric skillet. You will need an temperature probe to monitor the temperature as the one on the door is not that accurate. I am pleased with the smoker and would recommend it.

Smoker works like a charm so long as place the wood firebox directly on the heating coil rather than in the rack. Doesnt get hot enough to generate much smoke otherwise. Wood chips last about 3 to 4 hours on highest setting before need replacing. Very nice having two doors so can open just the bottom and not loose temp. Get a probe type temp gauge there is threaded hole in back of smoker made just for it so you know when food is done without constantly opening doors to check on it.
