Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy slow-cooked barbecue and authentic smokehouse flavor with this charcoal water smoker. Perfect for large gatherings, it comes equipped with two chrome cooking grates that can hold up to 50 pounds of food. Cook a ham on one level and a turkey on the other. Both the top and bottom grill levels cook at about the same temperature, so when cooking different types or cuts of meat at the same time, place the meat that cooks the fastest on the top grill for convenient removal. The unit's domed lid supplies a heat indicator for checking the temperature at a glance, while its front-hinged door allows for adding more charcoal or water during the smoking process. Other highlights include a 6-quart porcelain water pan, an 8-quart charcoal pan, high-grade wooden handles that stay cool to the touch, and an easy-to-clean lightweight design. An instruction manual comes included. The charcoal water smoker measures approximately 17 by 17 by 32 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.


Product Description

Slow-cooked food from a real water smoker tastes divine. The steam penetrates deeply into ham, turkey, fish, chicken, and briskets for a big smoky flavor, and the most, tender, moist meats imaginable. Char-Broil's Charcoal H20 Smoker has dual 15 1/2" chrome racks (with adjustable positions) that hold up to 50 lbs. of food so you can smoke a full sized ham and turkey at the same time. Water reservoir holds a long lasting 6 qt. Capacity. Comes with a top mounted temperature gauge.

2.0 out of 5 stars Design is flawed, but can be modified to work, July 20, 2000
By Chris Cox (Knoxville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
As it comes out of the box, you will have a hard time keeping the temperature up into the cooking range (200 F) on this smoker, unless you add hot coals every 30 to 45 minutes. The problem is that the fire does not get enough oxygen with the fire pan provided. To increase air flow, I drilled about 30 half-inch diameter holes in the bottom of my fire pan. Then, I bought a charcoal grate from Home Depot. I set on top of a 3 inch tall collar made of aluminum flashing that sits in the drilled out fire pan. Many of the barbecue sites on the web have other detailed instructions for modification of water smokers.

As the fire burns, ash will drop through the fire grate into the fire pan. Eventually enough ash will accumulate to block the air holes, so it is important to keep these open by poking a stick around to keep the air paths open. Be careful of hot coals dropping from your smoker and starting a fire. I use a shallow pan filled with moist sand to protect my deck. Also, I heat up the water to boiling on the stove before adding to my smoker. With these modifications, I can keep the fire in a reasonable temperature range by adding wood chunks and cold briquettes a few at a time.

I think a product should work without the buyer having to extensively modify the equipment. However, very good barbecue can be produced on this unit after the modifications have been made. If you want to give smoking a try without investing much money and can make the necessary modifications, this unit will work ok. If you want a water smoker and can invest $180, buy the Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker. I will probably buy a large smoker with an offset fire box in a few years, but this one will work for now.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good value, but seriously..., October 2, 2000
By F. Donald Ahee "donahee" (Tucson, Arizona United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This smoker is the bargin member of the smoker family. For the money it's a good starter unit. Don't buy it if you plan on getting serious about cooking with smoke. We found it effective, but labor intensive to maintain a temperature for longer smokes. It produced great smoked salmon filets in less than 2hrs but on the turkeys and ribs, it was a lot of work. If you're handy, you can modify it as suggested in another review. We ended up with a Brinkman All-in-One gas unit and wouldn't trade it for anything. It's a 160k btu burner for deep frying birds or boiling lobster. It grills, charcoal or gas. It smokes, charcoal or gas. It has vents to get air inside the charcoal pan. We mounted a professional grade themometer in the lid and with gas, can maintain smoker/bbq temps between 150 and 300+ indefinetly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smokalicious!, May 17, 2000
By A Customer
You will love the way food can taste when cooked on this adorable (yet quite sizable) red smoker. Remember to make your pitcher of margaritas early because it can take a while before the charcoal heats up enough to slow cook the food. Hence it is best for an all day/night event, not a quick meal. Don't be afraid to get creative with the food you smoke (fruit and veg are just as good as seafood and meats!) It's fairly easy to clean as well. Enjoy.
