Smokers questions

What's the difference between a vertical and an offset smoker?+

A vertical smoker stacks its racks above the heat source in an upright cabinet, so it holds a lot of food in a small footprint. An offset smoker has a side firebox, and heat and smoke travel across a long horizontal chamber. Offsets take more fire management but give you a wide grate and a traditional wood-fired cook.

Which type of smoker is easiest for beginners?+

Vertical pellet, electric and gas smokers hold a set temperature for you, and the Tahoma auto-feed smokers do the same with charcoal. Offset and drum smokers reward practice with fire and airflow control.

Pellet, electric, gas or charcoal: which vertical smoker should I choose?+

Pellet smokers burn hardwood pellets for wood-fired flavor with digital temperature control. Electric smokers plug in and are the simplest to run. Gas smokers run on propane. Charcoal verticals give the most traditional smoke but need more hands-on airflow control.

What is a reverse-flow offset smoker?+

Heat and smoke pass under steel baffle plates to the far end of the chamber, then turn back across the food to the stack, which evens out the temperature from end to end. Our Oklahoma Joe's Longhorn and Highland Reverse Flow smokers both use removable baffles, and the Longhorn can also be set up as a traditional offset.

How much cooking space do I need?+

Check the cooking area on each product page. Our vertical smokers run from about 720 sq in on the Pit Boss 3-Series pellet model to 1,679 sq in on the Sportsman 5-Series and Competition Series, and the Laredo 1100 offset has 1,100 sq in.
