Smoker Box, Stainless Steel BBQ Grilling Meat Smokers Box for Wood Chips, Best Barbecue Accessories on Gas Charcoal Grill

It’s exactly what I needed. Looks like very high quality.

This works well but you have to experiment to find the correct temperature to get it smoking. Too much heat and the chips will catch on fire. Too little heat and they won't smoke at all. It also takes a good amount of time to get the chips smoking without them catching on fire so you have to keep an eye on the grill. Once it's smoking correctly, it does impart a good flavor to whatever you're cooking.

This is a solid, well built item. I use alot of Hickory chips and the food's flavor is close to using Hickory charcoal. My one complaint is that after using it only 3 times, the lid became really hard to open/close, especially when heated.. It seems that smoke particles quickly build up and hinder smooth lid operation. A thorough cleaning restores smooth operation. It just seems (to me) that this is pretty quick for a 'smoker box'.a

The size is smaller than what's advertised so be aware of that. Also, it's nothing special, I got the same smoke effect from using foil with an air vent.

I used this to smoke a pork loin. Yes, it takes a while to get the flavor, but man was it good. The box is easy to deal with. Just know that it can get pretty hot. It holds enough to not have to change it out too often, but be sure to soak the chips at least 30 min before you use them and plan to change them out every 40 min to an hr. I guess that depends on how hot your grill gets. Place this on the burning side of your grill and simply let the meat soak in the flavor indirectly for an hour or two if it's not a very thick piece of meat. The loin took 3 hrs, but I baked it in the oven at a low temp for about 40 min first, then took about 2 and a half hours or so on the grill. Considering the size of the meat, I should not have put it with low heat underneath in the grill. Indirect is best. It will cook over time anyway and when you're ready to get a decent char on the meat, that can come at the end on direct heat.

I have been smoking and BBQing a long time. Have used a side firebox, pellets, and love my electric stand smoker too. With the elec I had been using chips and aluminum foil. Over the season, the foil dissipates ash all over the lava rock and I have to give it a thorough cleaning. THAT is NO LONGER necessary! I load this box w chip or pellets (they burn far longer) and place the box on the lava rocks (not touching the element. It works wonderfully and after smoking there is no mess in the lava rock.

Smokes really well, Easy to use,Worth the $. Just don’t soak wood chips no more than 30 minutes or will take a while to start smoking. If using it for “grilling” only fill about quarter of the way.

I'm just getting into using wood chips with my gas grill and this smoke box seemed to be a nice upgrade from the heavy duty aluminum foil I had been using. I am still experimenting with heat and positioning to understand how to achieve the best results but I am pleased so far. The smoke flavor I'm getting is not nearly as strong as achievable on a true smoker but it's not bad. The box is closed on the bottom with holes on the sides and top so it can be used with either wet or dry chips. I find I get more smoke more quickly with dry chips but it doesn't last as long. What is interesting is either way, the wood chips are not completely consumed to ash but instead turn to something resembling charcoal. At any rate, I figure the box will eventually pay for itself by not having to buy as much aluminum foil.
