  • Holds up to the hype, awesome smoker, however....
Color: Black
So this thing is a beast! She holds temp like a champ and can do a mixture of 8" splits with charcoal brickettes without issue. I was nervous about the heavier blue smoke boardering on white, however, this did not add any bitterness to the meat at all! This is because of it's highly efficient airflow design, kinda like if an offset had a tall stack and wide air intake. So about 7 lbs of Royal Oak charcoal brickettes and four splits lasted 14 hours which saves you a ton on fuel! Just be sure to light at the center of the coal tray. The best part is it does not leak any smoke! Now, it's important that you seal the two barrel halves and the air intake tube connecting at the bottom barrel with Lavalock Black RTV Silicone. Also coat the inner bolts where the two barrel halves connect and the three inner bolts of the air intake at the bottom barrel. This is because it will leak the avacado oil from the burn in and will leak rendered fat. Next, you want at least a 12" shallow pizza pan (plate style) because the drip cup will overflow with large fatty items like brisket. Also, the thermostats are NOT calibrated as they claim, so you will need to do this yourself. Just use pliers on the stem and apply enough pressure to hold the stem still while you turn the main display. Do these things and this will be a frustration free top notch smoker for years to come! The only two recommendations I would make to Oklahoma Joe's / Char-Griller is to get rid of the removable drip cup, keep the recess and use a side valve instead. Then replace the current thermostat with an adjustable one. This will make for absolute perfection! In any case this smoker is worth the investment, and if you do it right, by taking it lower and slower, you can achieve those offset smoker flavor profiles. ... show more

  • Best smoker I’ve used.
Color: Black
I’ve used electric pellet smokers before, but this one truly blows them away. It was easy to set up, and I had it constructed in about 30 minutes. I ran it through two seasoning firings, and I’ve cooked ribs and tri-tip on it, and they all turned out great. The temperature control on this smoker is fantastic. You can keep it in the smoking range for hours with the easy controls built into the unit. I highly recommend this smoker if you’re looking for a family-friendly option. ... show more

  • Oklahoma Joe Bronco (Review)
Color: Black
I’ve owned the Oklahoma Joe Bronco for years. I switched to the Oklahoma Joe offset smoker for a while, but after using both, I’ve switched back to the Bronco—and I couldn’t be happier. The Bronco is by far the best all-around smoker and grill. It holds a steady temperature exceptionally well, is easy to use, and consistently produces amazing BBQ and perfectly grilled meats. If you’re looking for a versatile smoker that can also grill, the Oklahoma Joe Bronco is hard to beat. I highly recommend it! ... show more

  • Oklahoma Joe Bronco Pro
Color: Orange
I will have to start with the shipping, I am SO glad I chose to have Amazon put this together for us, I bought it as a gift for my husbands 60th birthday. It is huge! It's very heavy, and it took 2 guys to bring it in. Kudos to the Amazon guys who came, they were awesome, they made sure I was satisfied, had me look all over the whole product to make sure everything was there. They even took photos. Now, the smoker. I can't lie, I think its the best I have eaten. So far my husband has used it at least 5 times in the month of September. We have had no issues at all. My husband is the one who uses it, here are his words. Very efficient, no smoke leaks, Cooks all day 12 hours from one pot of coals , and wood, never had to add anything, or even turn meat. It cooks to perfection. Easy to clean, and the COLOR Orange was awesome! Easy to regulate temp. He recommends that you must get meat probes, and temp probes. I bought those from Amazon separately, they are a huge help. Between the shipping service, the taste of the food, and the quality of the smoker I would highly recommend this smoker as a top quality 5 star. The meat was out of this world, he used different meats, and tried different rubs also. You won't be sorry with this one. The photos above were Pork Shoulder, Picnik roast, half brisket, and as you can see, he only cooked one thing each weekend but there's plenty of room to cook a lot of food on the large grate. In fact 4 large Pork roasts would fit comfortably . We have not tried ribs yet, that's next :-) BTW, I purchased the less expensive black one first, the smaller Oklahoma Joe , from Lowes and it had a lot of issues, the screws didn't line up, and we had to take it back , so I decided to buy the better one from Amazon. I am not sorry I did, the extra money was so worth it. ... show more

  • Great smoker with some minor flaws
Color: Orange
A great smoker, but there's a few little niggles. When assembling: the two halves should be joined with a screw and washer - there's not enough room between the sides for the washer to fit without scraping off the finish. The handle didn't really fit the curve of the lid and I had to bend it a bit. The coal basket and ash pan cannot fit centred because of the bolts. The axle is packed, hidden, under the top; spent a few minutes cursing before I found it. The wheel assembly is poor - a circlip and a washer is all that holds it together. And finally mine was missing one of the meat hangers. Took a full 45minutes with OJ support before they agreed to send me a replacement (in 7-10 days) Amazon were useless, they wanted me to return the whole thing. In use, the thermometer is a full 50F adrift from my (accurate) thermoprobe. Beyond all those, it's fantastic bit of kit. Well finished and solid. I think it'll last years. When cooking, it does exactly what you'd want. Temperatures are easy to control and stable. Overall, I'm really happy with it & I'm getting some great bbq. ... show more

  • Winner, winner Brisket Dinner!!!
Color: Black
I spent two years studying BBQ pits to buy and I’ve owned several nice offset smokers. The reviews on this one were good no matter where I looked so when I saw it on sale for just a few hundred bucks I figured “why not try it”. I’ve now owned it for one year and use it often. All I can say is that this smoker is almost foolproof. It doesn’t get too hot, and it loves to naturally hover between 200-225 degrees. It doesn’t take much babysitting and the several rounds of ribs, Turkey and brisket I’ve pulled out were very impressive. 100% approval, and no complaints, even from my wife who eats very little meat. She loves the $15 Turkey I smoke from Walmart. If you are just starting out smoking meats, this is perfect for you. You can’t hardly ruin anything in this barrel. And your friends and family will be impressed. I just use a mix of charcoal and hickory wood, a good rub, then let the meat sit in the fridge overnight and run about an hour a pound for brisket staying in the 200-225 zone. Easy Peasy! I’m sure some folks prefer electric smokers but I read too many reviews on heater element and timer failures. Oh, be sure and order the Oklahoma Joes cover for it. Keeps it dry and ready to go. I don’t write many 5 star reviews but this one is deserving. ... show more

  • Absolutely love this smoker!
Color: Black
I have expensive Traegar pellet grills and kamado style ceramic grills. This thing beats them both for smokiness. It holds temps rock steady, it's convertible from a smoker to a regular grill to a pit barrel smoker all with ease. Easy to clean and maintain. You can't beat it for the price. The kamado egg style cooker and the pellet grill are seeing a lot less use these days. ... show more

  • My first smoker after some serious research
Color: Black
My friends and family push Traeger (duh) but I didn't have all the room. Plus, I have a nice Weber grill and wanted something to compliment it. I picked this for the dual cooking aspect. Again, I have looked up smokers and knew what to look for. Though there is a problem with the air intake stack, the fine folks at Char-broil are super quick to send out a replacement. Look this up, it is a known issue. Secondly, I wanted to get back to charcoal grilling. There is a difference, plain and simple. OKJ does this for me, too. You literally lift out the heat diffuser, remove the charcoal basket, flip over the heat diffuser then put the charcoal basket on top. Finally and obviously, you put the grill back on top. Tah freakin' dah. It's super simple to put together. You are literally building it upside down then turning right side up. It says you need 2 people to do that but you don't. Test it first without killing yourself. Like I said, the only problem was the intake stack and they either fixed it in newer iterations or will replace once you register. So simple. Totally recommend. Especially if you are new to this and have limited space. You can get the larger size too, btw. The thing looks like a beast!!! ... show more
