  • Need some opinions

    I need some opinions from all you veteran smokers. I am able to get this smoker brand new in a box on a really good deal. The wife bought it for her husband and he wants nothing to do with it. If anyone has ever used one or knows anything about it, your input would really help.

    Well..it's a basic gasser. 54K BTU's is QUITE hefty. Ought be able to grill inside that puppy. Might need a needle valve setup. Hmm Have I read any bad things in the KK units? Maybe not... but it's ringing a bell.

        if you could get a good deal on it i say go for it ,i havent personally cooked on one but i know ive heard of em cant remember good or bad though,but if the deals good enough its worth a shot.now having said that i might pass it up just on the fact that it is a gasser but thats just me.

            for 200 or less i would buy it......like all the room that is in there and i would agree with richtee that would probably need a needle valve to control the heat better

              OK Dip... Buy it, Then send it down to Ol' T-H for a proper seasoning and a few test smokes...

              I will be sure to return it back to you close as I can to original condition and give you my review..

                  Our farm store carries them, not a bad lookin unit, thought bout buyin one, but then started buildin a drum. Still might, would be nice in the shop fer winter use! Not a bad price compared ta the GOSM.

                    This is the unit you bought instead of the drum?

                    Shame on you.

                      Great deal in my neck of the woods.....the drum is just on hold for a bit.
