Hardwood lump charcoal works well as a base fuel, with wood chunks or splits added for smoke flavor. Maintaining proper airflow helps ensure a clean-burning fire.

With roughly 1,200 square inches of cooking space, you can cook multiple racks of ribs, large briskets, or several proteins at once, making it ideal for gatherings and events.
How do the dual stacks and sliding baffle help?
The dual smoke stacks promote steady airflow and even smoke distribution, while the sliding baffle allows you to fine-tune heat zones inside the smoker.
Do the handles stay cool during cooking?
The stainless steel spring handles are designed to dissipate heat and remain more comfortable during use, though caution should always be used around hot metal.
Can I add my own temperature gauges?
Yes. The smoker includes three dedicated thermometer ports that support analog or digital probes.
Does this smoker require assembly?
No. The Smokehouse is fully welded and ready to cook. Routine maintenance includes cleaning ash, oiling grates, and protecting the exterior as needed.

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.
