Great for Smoking Meat
596793
The Maverick Wireless BBQ Thermometer Set is one of the best investments I've made. Using another probe, similar to this one but not wireless, I couldn't keep my meat and temperature where they should be. Since this has one thermometer that goes into the meat and another that hangs in my smoker, I get much more reliable readings. The great feature about the wireless is, I can mow my lawn and watch the temps as I mow. One thing would make this greater. It should have a larger hook or a magnet on the transmitter. The hook is too small for my smoker so I keep a table real close to the smoker to put it on. Other than that, I would recommend this to any serious BBQ smoker people.

This smoker worked great for our Thanksgiving turkey. It was my first smoker... had grilled before. It did get a little hotter than I expected - it was cold out. I checked the meat temp after 3 hrs and it was 180F, outside wasn't brown so I lowered the temp and cooked for another 2 hours. I had 2 turkeys in there - one cut up (on top so I could watch it) and the other whole.
I do wish it had a thermometer, a bit heavier metal, actual hangers to lay the grills. Works great, just a little 'cheap' for the price.

I have used mine a couple of times now and have to say that the smoky flavor and easy use are the main selling points on this product.  The cleaning is not too bad, just a little bit of elbow grease to get some of the smoke and grime off the water pan and grates.

For my birthday, my brother was kind enough to order a smoker off my Amazon wishlist. I finally got a nice day and good piece of meat to try it out. I have to say I was totally impressed. I was impressed that I didn't burn off my eyebrows (even though it was close). I was impressed that the simplistic heat guage's ideal, really meant ideal. I was shocked by the quality of meat to come forth. Overall it rocked. So, picked up a pork tenderloin that I did a dry rub of

  * Sea salt

  * lemon pepper

  * cayenne pepper

  * garlic powder

on to the roughly 1.25 lbs of pork. I filled the water pan with a bunch of water, 4 cloves of garlic and a dash of port. I used some mesquite chips (thoroughly soaked) as my smoking agent and let it cook for 2 hours. The piece of meat came of with the most amazing flavor that I could imagine.

Necessary summer equipment.

Nice Smoker easy to use and does a good job. I have already smoked a Chicken and 9 Lb. Pork butt. The Chicken came out moist and flavorful and we used the Pork butt for delicious pulled pork sandwiches. Next is Ribs i can hardly wait. The remote is good for keeping an eye on the temp and the built in meat probe.
The only down side is you need to be careful when cleaning especially the drip catching tray that the water bowl slides onto the edges are not rolled and are very sharp.

I have used this for injecting juice into a brisket before smoking and it works great. I holds a good amount of juice and the needle is plenty sharp to pierce the meat. The only draw back I found it the plunger is a little hard to pull back and draw the juice in to the body. The thumb ring is a nice feature when injecting.

I've had this for several months now - very easy to use, and makes great meats.  I recommend the cold smoke attachment for these smokers - it provides hours of  smoke without having to restock the feeding tube.
Also, the company has some good videos on the interwebs with good tips and recipes.

Love it,  I use it every weekend.  Perfectly smoked meats!

I love it. I have smoked beef, chicken, pork spare and baby back ribs. All came out great. You do need to place a pan on the bottom rack to block the direct heat from the food but that with any wood or charcoal smoker with the flame on the bottom. I had to do that with my gas smoker also.

Gloves are a great addition to my smoker.  Handles everything from hot coals to smoked brisket and clean up great for the next use.
When not in the smoke pit, these gloves work great in the kitchen too.

Perfect for use in my smoker. While the smoker was on our back patio, I had the receiver with me in the house and got constant updates of the temperature, both in the oven and in the meat that I was smoking. Cooked/smoked a pork roast to exactly 195 degrees and it pulled apart easily and tasted great as a BBQ pulled pork sandwich. I love that the guess work is now gone and that I don't have to keep opening the smoker to check the meat temperature.

Dude, I know that there is an art to smoking and adjusting the smoke and temp, BUT, this makes smoking so easy and allows for piece of mind while smoking to ensure your final product is smoked to just how you want it. As you approach your set meat temp, this slows down how much air is blown in to slowly approach your finish temp. It makes smokin' meat way less stressful. I love this!
I know it is expensive, but in my opinion, it is WELL worth the money!

This is fantastic! It adds a bit of smokiness to meats. We use it on steak, burgers, chicken. I really like the Alderwood Smoked Salt, too but this might edge it out by a bit.

Works as expected, makes smoking much easier and more efficient since i don't have to open the smoker to check meat temp.

I used this in a local amateur BBQ competition while Smoking Beef Tri-Tip and took Third Place.  A few chunks of this added to some hardwood lump coal provided a nice clean smoke flavor that was not overpowering.  I will use this again.

I love smoked meat! However, I don't have the time or the patience to smoke meat and tend to it all day by constantly having to throw more chips on the fire. Why didn't someone think of this sooner. Since I bought this item a few months ago as a graduation gift to myself, I have smoked like crazy. I have smoked different kinds of meat, my favorite being chicken breast. You don't even have to marinade it. The meat is so tender and so juicy. It self feeds, you just need to stack the wood bisquettes (which are made specially for use with this product) in the side shoot, turn it on and put the meet on the racks and VOILA, perfectly smoked meat. It is unbelievable! I even smoked london broil and it was so tender and juicy.

The smoker cleans easily (which supports my low maintenance needs). So, if you love smoked meat, but don't like the high maintenance that is required to tend the meet and clean up, I HIGHLY recommend this Smoker (or should I say "Lazy Q") You won't be dissatisfied. While you are at it buy the apple bisquettes for smoking chicken and hickory for smoking beef. Also, you might want to purchase the Bradley All Weather Cover to protect your investment. One last praise, it runs on electricity! You don't have to worry about running out of propane or charcoal because you won't need them. This is one of the best purchases I have ever made.

Pros - a must have for handling meat during smoking. These do a great job of keeping your hands safe from heat. I also wear to pull apart pork.
Cons - somewhat difficult to clean, can get very slippery after handling meat.

Amazen  works great for cold smoking. I use it to smoke cheese and bacon. . Wonderful taste. I place in my grill and smoke the food on the warming rack.
