I'm getting ready to smoke my 1st brisket so i'm doing a trial run in the O.K. Joe with some whole chickens, a rack of ribs, & a pork butt. the fire is...

    diffuser design?

    I have an older original Oklahoma joe longhorn offset smoker. I was looking around the horizon smoker website & found that they make a diffuser for Oklahoma joe smokers. near the firebox the plate has holes that graduate in size the farther the they get from the firebox. I was at a local...

    sliding convection plates

    I was checking out the horizon website & they make convection plates for Oklahoma joe smokers. they also make a plate that slides. there is a rod that runs thru the smoker & extends out the smokestack end. what would be the advantage? I would think you'd want to keep the plate up against the...

    wet ashes & rust

    went to look at a used horizon smoker yesterday. I took my welding chipping hammer along & i'm glad I did. the firebox was full of really wet ashes. I removed what was left of the grate which was buried in the ashes, moved some ashes aside & gave the bottom a few raps with the pointed end of the...

    I did my research & checked prices. the longhorn size Yoder is $1195.00 at a local dealer. the Longhorn size horizon is $1349.00 at bass pro. both of these are companies started by ex-ok joe employees. The Ok Joe which is barely 1/8" is $429.00 list at Lowes & they'll knock off 10% making it...

    opinions on this smoker

     this is custom made ​& about the same size as the yoder Cheyenne & ok. joe highland. what i'm wondering is how the stack being mounted on the lid might work. it's not mine, i'm still kicking the tires. also-do these offsets use a lot of wood/charcoal??

    oklahoma joe smoker vs old country pecos

    has anyone seen a current old country smoker in person recently. old reviews state it's built out of 1/4" steel. the current specs show it as being 14 gauge ( 1/16" ) chamber & 11 gauge ( 1/8" ) doors. the nearest dealer is 1 1/2 hours down the road. if this is true the Oklahoma joe is looking...

    aren't you supposed to come with MORE money when you go to the scrap metal yard?!?!? I went to a local scrap yard today to look for some expanded metal to build a charcoal box & found a Brinkman Pitmaster Deluxe. mechanically it's in great shape, no cracks, warpage, heavy rust, or holes. there...

    cajun bandit heat diffuser?

    while bringing my weber performer home the heat diffuser blew out of the back of the truck. I thought it was under the grate. DOH!! being a flimsy piece of sheet metal it was no great loss.  it looks like the easiest replacement would be a 20" pizza pan which in the 22.5 grill would leave a 3/4"...

    oklahoma joe smoker?

    I've read that charbroil bought out Oklahoma joe & cheapened up their smokers. is that true?? I just saw a 700 something cubic inch model with the side grill at my local lowes. it looked pretty heavy duty compared to the charbroil model sitting next to it.
