SNeal,
Yeah, not sure where I got the bad info re: the Texas lulling smoker being produced in Mexico. Honestly I was doing so much research at the time that I prob got my signals crossed. I ended up with a Lang36 that I love. I put an ad on for Uship and Ben Lang matched the offer so I was...
Yup, not at all my experience unfortunately. I don't speak at all against his character or his product which I'm sure are both excellent. Just for some reason my experience was just so disappointing.
Anyone heard of these guys?

Pretty good pricing for a custom build? Any other good value fabricators anyone want to promote? I'm in the market for a stick burner in the $1500 range but would prefer to go with something other than the mass produced ones. Shipping has been the...
Hey Gentlemen,
So as winter nears end, I am once again immersed in searching for an offset smoker. Last year I had one commisioned from Bell Fab but we had some communication issues and the deal fell through. I live in Charlottesville Va., so shipping is deal breaker on a lot of good smokers...
Hey Stump,
Thnx for sharing your story, glad to know I'm not alone. Keep me posted on what you end up with. I've written off this year and setting my sights on next season! The Shirley does look awesome but the wait is now over a year!! Also the Lone star Grillz 24 x 36 looks amazing, a little...
Joe, just for the record. I ordered the Bell smoker in March, was told a 4 week lead time, so yes, I expected in by the 4th. IMHO if you can't can't deliver as promised you communicate that to the customer. That's just how I conduct business. I know you're going to defend your friend til the end...
All due respect Joe, it's much easier to say when you actually have a smoker. This is the second year in a row I've ordered a smoker to have by memorial day and the fourth of july, and the second straight year I've been screwed. Last year it was a custom builder in Virginia who led me on for...
Well that last post was in April. I was told the build out would be 4 weeks. Here it is almost July and I still don't have the smoker and he has informed that he was holding off because He didn't think I wanted it anymore. Just a ridiculous unprofessional experience with this builder. I'm sure...
He uses yellow freight. They deliver to the nearest terminal which is 40 mi away and about $250.00. Then I'll have to have someone pick it up with a trailer which may cost another $50 to $100. This is still way cheaper than Lang or any of the others.
Groucho, He put me on the list which is...
Hey All!
Thanks again for all the advice, I pulled the trigger on a Bell Fab 24" by 36" offset smoker today. For that quality for under $1000 delivered I don't think I can go wrong. BTW, I spoke with Bell today and they switched shipping companies after the debacle with the fellow poster who...
"I think you've hit the saturation point, and next phase will be paralysis by analysis."
You hit the nail on the head Groucho, I tend to do way too much research on every purchase I make, from headphones to this smoker! . I do enjoy the hell out of that process. We just payed for an upcoming...
