I have a Klose Family Reunion on a trailer, not sure I should switch to this one.
Thanks Jeremy for the review! Can you explain what it looks like under the grate and near the firebox? Is he running some sort of baffle that pushes air up toward the top plate where the water pan holder is? I can't seem to find any info, photos or videos to show what it looks like under the grate? I'm curious if it's wide open to allow smoke and gasses to flow freely out and possibly under the food or is it all forced up and across the grate?
Thanks again for you're great and informative videos!
God bless!
Is the Firefox insulated
That price for a smoker with a single cooking shelf is outrageous
The price of this cooker has risen 1150 dollars bringing the total to 5150
According to me Franklin the door leak is part of the convection process because it also draws air in to help the process.
@madscientistbbq – Nice review – Did you ever do a Lone Star Smoker Review? How do they compare?
If you listen to Aaron talk about it, they actually made it to leak a little because it helps the way the air flows
How wide and tall is this smoke stack?
Not only a great product review, but helpful informative as well. Thanks so much for this.
I would love one but I have to sell a kidney first .
Great video, thanks for the review. Have you heard of Gator Pit, if yes have you done used one or given a review? They are built rock solid all the way through. Thanks
I don’t one I’d it leaks smoke it’s mediocre at best
Door was designed to leak smoke forgot exactly why but I think it has to do with the way air moves in a swirl and not in a straight line
If your wife can’t lift the door on this smoker then you have other issues to deal with.
The grind marks in the left lower corner (11:30) are to allow you to more easily pass wires through if you have a wired digital thermometer.
The smoke leak is intentional. Franklin talks about this in his video. The ventilation encourages the smoke to swirl inside the pit in a favorable way.
it is so damn obvious you benefit financially from talking good about the smoker. there is no reason in hell this smoker can ever be worth 4k. you are a big fat sell out.
THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS
IM CONSIDERING A FRANKLIN PIT
There’s probably some decks that would take a 625 lb smoker, but a whole lot wouldn’t. And 5 large for a home appliance? There’s enough steel in that thing to build a small car.
Franklin explains in a video the door "leaks" on purpose to aid convection. It causes the smoke from the firebox to not flow over the top of the meat, but instead spiral around it as the draft comes from the side.
Franklin himself said that the door is not too tight so air can enter the cooking chamber deliberately. If smoke leaks it’s probably due to the lesser vacuum going across the cook chamber.
As a twenty year Big Green Egg aficionado this is the first non-Egg I have ever wanted to own.
Wow
Built like a TANK!
Can they ship to Australia or are they too heavy?
