Discount Old Smokey Charcoal Grill #18 (Medium)

Old Smokey Charcoal Grill #18
Customer Ratings: 5 stars
Buy Now
I've had my smokey for two years and have grilled everything from burgers to briskets and whole chickens. My neighbors' Webers collect dust in their garages-most of them have gone to gas-but I've stayed loyal to lump charcoal and think this is hands down one of the best charcoal grills you can get for the money. The grilling surface is ample--you could even do a few racks of ribs if you roll them and sent them on their ends. Like the Weber, PK, and Holland grills, Old Smokey has a small cult following. And, for good reason. The design provides the versatility to use either direct or indirect heat, so Old Smokey functions as both a grill and smoker. The 18 inch diameter grill is perfect for a small family, but if I could do it over I'd just go for the 22 inch model so I could cook for a larger crowd. You should spring for the leg extensions, otherwise the grill won't stand waist high and you'll do a lot of bending over or squatting to tend to your 'cue. Reserve the shorter legs that come with it for camping outings. As for aesthetics, I think the Old Smokey has a lot of character. It's a great conversation piece, and, unless you live in Texas, you'll be one of the only folks on your block to have one! It's a fantastic little grill for the money. The only drawback I've found is that the simple design makes it hard to add charcoal. Unlike the PK, the grill is one piece, so you have to remove the meat and grill to add more charcoal. A slight hassle, perhaps, but for a product priced at around $50, you really can't complain. If you are one of those folks who thinks, "they sure don't make things like they used to" then the Old Smokey is for you. Check out the company's web site. This is an American product made by folks whose product integrity has stood the test of time.

Got my Old Smokey this week, and after years of being a Weber man, I was just in the mood for something different. Something that you don't see at every house on the block. I was also attracted to the large clearance over the grill for things such as beer can chicken. I don't think the Weber 18" has enough clearance to do this, although the 22" Weber does, the 22" is just too big for what I need. I don't do too much smoking, mainly just grill steaks, burgers, BBQ chicken & the like, and for that, this grill is perfect. For the reviewer that said the top doesn't marry perfectly with the bottom. No it doesn't, but why would you want it to? It sits on it just fine, and you don't want an airtight seal on a BBQ anyways, or your coals would go out. Hence why you open the top & bottom vents... as far as smothering charcoal to save it for next time, the seal around the edge of the lid is good enough once you close the vents.

I highly recommend the long legs to go with this grillthe short legs that come with it only raise it to a little less than knee level.

I love this grill. It's the perfect size and it's easy to clean out the ash. I'm really glad I got the Old Smokey Long Legs with it because it raises it up to a manageable height. It's basic and simple. My boyfriend grills, not I, but he does a damn good job with this grill. So happy with this and it was so cheap too! Highly recommended!

Honest reviews on Old Smokey Charcoal Grill #18 (Medium)

Old Smokey does what it is supposed to do ! It smokes the food very well leaving a great flavor to what ever you decide to cook on this grill. It's not too large to transport where ever you want to do your grilling and, not too small to serve several people at home. The only draw back is that the placement of the top is not precise you have to make sure it is lined up or you will lose smoke and heat out the seam. But once it is lined up the grill does a fine job and, if you know what you are doing you will get compliments on the food you cook on this grill. Very easy to assemble.

We've had this grill for years, and love it. I've used those dinky overpriced Weber grills and spent the whole time fiddling with the dampers to get the oxygen just right...whatever. The Old Smokey cooks great and maintenance is easy. The design is squatty and sturdy, so it sits really steady (some other grills I'd hesitate use with kids and dogs running around). I recommend the Old Smokey to anyone who enjoys the flavor of charcoal grilling.

Complete junk. It is super cheap. The plastic is so thin that with a few snowfalls, it split apart and is now useless. Don't buy the cheap one, it will cost you in the end. Also, the other reviews only say they just got it. Mine did not last a few months. In short, don't buy.

Best Deals for Mr Bar B Q 07001XEF Platinum Prestige Medium Grill Cover

I got this grill cover from a local store known for selling cheap stuff, so I wasn't expecting greatness, just enough to cover it for the winter. When I installed it, it didn't cover the full height of the grill, leaving a good 12-18" exposed on the bottom. Worse, still, less than a month after installation, one side of the cover has worn through where the handle of the grill is! Spend the extra money on a good grill.

Honest reviews on Mr Bar B Q 07001XEF Platinum Prestige Medium Grill Cover

This is truly a case of "you get what you pay for". This cover is fine if you don't use your grill often and if it has rounded edges. Its a good size and will fit over most grills. It has a nice soft inside and doesn't seem to damage the finish of your nicer grill.

However, there are plenty of downsides. If you have sharp corners on your grill, this will rip in a few weeks. We lived in a a townhouse and had to store our grill outside for the winter. This cover did not make it through the harsh new england winter and had nearly tore in half by spring.

Depending on your use, this may be adequate, but invest in something more heavy duty if you live in a harsh climate.

This has got to be the worst gas grille cover I have ever bought. The cheap plastic cover started to rip almost before I put it on the grille. After being on 1 month it is ripped so bad I need to throw away.

Classic Accessories Hickory  BBQ Grill Cover, Medium

I was tired of replacing my BBQ cover for my expensive 30" Lynx BBQ Grill. Only the Lynx grill cover would fit this grill until I discovered this one. This Classic cover is not only more durable than the Lynx Grill cover (which was an ugly black shiny cover with thin fabric that would shred apart within 1 2 years), but it is also sooo much cheaper! The only difference with this Classic cover is that I have to leave the Lynx side shelves extended up so the Classic BBQ Grill cover fits properly. It's a small compromise in order to get such a better product. In a way, it's actually a benefit since I never need to fold down the side shelves of the grill.

I actually called the manufacturer of this company to make sure that this medium grill cover would fit over my 30" Lynx Grill and they said that their dimensions were not that accurate.

Classic Accessories: 1-800-854-2315 (Their customer service is excellent and they assured me that the medium cover would fit my grill. They were correct!)

Their website is:

Apparently the dimensions listed on Amazon for this product are not exactly accurate as the manufacturer explained to me. It says on Amazon that it "Fits medium bbqs up to 58-Inch L by 24-Inch W by 48-Inch H". There is extra room to accomodate a larger grill.

Well, my bbq is 59" wide (with the shelves extended) x 29" deep x 51" high. So you can see that my bbq is quite a bit larger than what the Classic website says it fits. If anything, my cover is a tiny bit snug on the width, but it's still fits fine. I'm really picky, and I think this product is great. You will see what an excellent product this is if you order it. It's made from highly durable fabric that doesn't fade (my grill sits in the sun most of the day and it hasn't faded at all.) The cover is easy to get on and off the grill as the fabric is somewhat stiff. It's also a nice color. The biggest challenge with this product is to make sure that it is the right set of dimensions for your grill.

Whatever product you order from this company, I think you will be pleased with it's quality.

Too bad that Classic doesn't make a ping pong table cover. The ones on the market that I've seen are so flimsy.

This is the best grill cover i ever bought ! Made very well. However, 4 star rating is because the size dies run a bit bigger. Large was just a bit bigger then i wanted even thought my grill size was with in large size. My gril is 63" long. So i got medium size that calls for 60" long grill. Its fits perfect, like a glove.

Best Deals for Classic Accessories Hickory BBQ Grill Cover

Recently received this cover, ordered in medium size and it is a perfect fit, very snug on all sides. The additions of the side handle, draw string, and buckle helps to keep the cover from blowing off.

The material is very heavy and thick and seems like it is much better then the original Weber grill cover.

It recently rained and the water beaded well on the cover.

Would definitely recommend over the Weber cover as this seems like it is much better quality and last longer then the vinyl material that Weber has used.

Honest reviews on Classic Accessories Hickory BBQ Grill Cover

I have owned this cover for three months. It is made of very sturdy material (canvass with a vinyl backing). For the money it is one of the best covers I have owned. The problem is with the metal nameplate on the front of the cover. It is riveted through the canvas and backed with very small washers. Due to wind, the plate has ripped out of the cover and now there are two holes in the canvas. They will most surely get bigger and destroy the integrity of the material. This little bit of vanity on the part of Classic Accessories makes an otherwise marvelous product a questionable buy. Hopefully the engineers/designers will fix this.

Honest reviews on Weber 7535 Flavorizer Bars

These "stainless" flavorizer bars are made of a stainless steel that attracts a magnet, so probably a 400-series not a higher-grade 300-series stainless. For around $40-delivered, you can buy the identical-size and model # product from Riversedge, made of a similar 400-series stainless and twice the metal thickness. Check it outthe reviews for that 3rd-party product are quite good.

Save your money unless you want the panache of the Weber brand. Even better, talk to a local steel companyyou'll be pleasantly surprised at the cost of having flavorizer bars custom-madeit isn't rocket science.

I have an 15+ year old Weber grill that came with porcelain steel grates and flavorizer bars. I've already replaced the grates and bars once (along with a few other pieces). Although I was happy with the quality of the previous parts, I decided to take a chance on the more expensive stainless parts. I'm glad I did. They seem to be a little heavier, holding the heat better, and so far are holding up extremely well.

Small chips that smoke quickly, where larger ones take longer to get going.

These tools don't actually lock in place. They lock open, but 'open' means they have a few milimeters of play between the locking mechanism and the backstop of the handle. That means that when locked open, the end of the tool wiggles separate from the handle. While they look neat, and do take up less space, they are pretty poor at fulfilling their actual purpose. Wiggling tools that don't go exactly where you need them to go is almost worse than no grill tools at all.

You might as well just use a fork and a pocket knife.
