The Myron Mixon MMS-36 H2O Water Smoker is built for pitmasters who want the consistency, moisture control, and heat retention that water smokers are known for. Designed by five-time world BBQ champion Myron Mixon and made in the USA, this insulated charcoal smoker uses a patented water pan system to stabilize heat and create a humid cooking environment that produces rich bark, juicy interiors, and reliable results across long cooks.
Whether you cook hot and fast or traditional low and slow, the MMS-36 maintains even temperatures throughout the chamber so meats cook evenly without constant rotating or repositioning. With insulated cabinet construction, an automated water fill system, and large rack capacity, this smoker is a favorite among serious backyard cooks, competition teams, and caterers who want consistent, championship-level BBQ.
Why You'll Love It- Made in the USA with heavy-duty construction
- Patented integral water pan maintains moisture and stabilizes cooking temperatures
- Automated water fill system helps maintain consistent humidity during long cooks
- Military-grade insulation improves fuel efficiency and heat retention
- Even heat distribution across racks reduces the need to rotate meats
- Designed for both hot-and-fast and traditional low-and-slow BBQ cooking
- Large vertical cooking chamber maximizes cooking capacity
The patented water pan system inside the Myron Mixon MMS-36 H2O Water Smoker regulates temperature while adding humidity inside the cooking chamber. Water absorbs heat spikes and circulates moisture throughout the smoker, helping meat stay tender while still developing the bark pitmasters look for.
The automated refill system maintains the proper water level throughout long cooks without repeatedly opening the smoker. Combined with the insulated cabinet design, this creates extremely stable temperatures and dependable cooking performance.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
