We have a large BBQ store in San Francisco, California. We were considering buying three of these but after your crappy interview, there’s probably no way I’d ever buy a Goldies smoker at all and what makes you the like the guy
I could be wrong ( wouldn’t be the first time, don’t tell my daughter) it looks like you might be able to hook up a counter weight to the top to make it easier to open. Check your heavy one also.
Review a gstacks out of California
I am dying to get a nice thick well built welded smoker but they are just not in my budget at the moment. Around christmas time I bought a cheap Char Griller smoker. It is horrible. The smoke leaks out of every area possible. It has a top lift lid on the fire box so its very hard to manage the air flow like id want. And it is incredibly hard to keep a consistant fire going in the size fire box provided. One minute its way too low barely hitting 200 degrees the next minute the thermometer is pegged all the way to 700+ degrees. I was better off just using my reconstituted wheel barrel open pit. Unfortunately with my open pit I was unable to do things like Brisket and Pork shoulders. But I made some amazing ribs on the open pit.
Wish I could afford one!
Excellent Review…. The stick burner may not be a 10 but your reviews are!
Better than fat stack…… 😮😮😮
cost????
Jeremy, love your content. This new mic you're using is no good though.
Great review as always
Wait, what?? You mean to tell me that this thing doest have a second rack inside??? This thing is garbage. You can keep it. There are a grand plethora of other offset smokers out there that have that important feature and this one doesn't? You can keep this one bro. Ill keep eyeing the Fatstack you had on here a little bit ago.
This pit is a machine its design to smoke and only smoke, the damber adjustment is great idea. I have an idea for you Jeremy. Do a video about which pit is rendered fat brisket better between the goldees, workhorse1975, tmg or mill scale and which pit take the short time to do that rendered.
Dude got huge
Microphone sounds over-modulated. Good vid otherwise.
I would love to see you evaluate at lone star grillz pit!
Great review!
Would love to get one bust I lost 3800 on the fatstack.
An old friend of mine had an old cast iron stove ducted into a 50 gallon drum for a smoker back in the day… thing worked wonders but also did not have a direct hole to pass any heat directly into the cooking chamber
Your audio is messed up for some reason, sounds very muted and hollow and for some reason you are clipping. Maybe the gains were too high on your DJI mic. Love the videos by the way! Thanks for all you do @madscientistbbq
Terraton 200 made in UK, has innovative thermodynamics. Mad science vacation work trip for the family! https://youtu.be/gA4Z9Q4HOiU?si=OfK5LUlmc7Irxkd2
Have you ever used a Horizon smoker?
Not sure what is going on with your mic, it sounded like you were yelling into it more. Regardless a very informative review. Maybe this design will start a new trend, just like the ongoing debate about the smokestacks. Love what you do! Can't wait to see whats next!
Since there is no direct venting from firebox to the cook chamber, does it matter where in the firebox you build the fire? If I build the fire closer to the chamber does that generate more smoke than heat and further away does more heat than smoke?

If you get an opportunity, would love to see you use the pellet smoker from Lone Star Grillz! Would be very interested to see you review it and to find out if Lone Star has gotten closer to the offset taste than other pellet smoker brands. Build quality on the LSG pellet grills looks second to none!
I worry about rust. I wonder if it's better to use some hot paint before you use it.
How's the cooking in cold weather? Did you want a welding blanket??
Is this the BAU Baus joint???
Please do some cooks with it. I am thinking about getting one.
This pit absolutely rocks! I'm in Australia so I couldn't purchase from MM, so I had a pit built (230 gallon) and it kicks ass. Everything Jeremy said is accurate. Haters can hate but the proof is in the brisket 👍
Uhhm, trying to listen to you, but that mic aint doing you well my dude
What is the diameter of the firebox elbow please
Love the reviews Jeremy would you say it’s better then the 1975? And also could you get it with a rover mod?
Well done! This is the best video I have seen, and we'll described, thanks for all you do!!! Keep em coming ❤
This pit is my dream pit. Loved the review on this pit.
Idk if it’s possible and I know you’re a science guy but it would honestly be nice for the flir to be in American units because we have no idea what a celcius is😂
I’m sorry if you mentioned it and I missed it but what is diameter elbow do they use? Looks like maybe 6”. Also, where the elbow enters the cook chamber, is the bottom half below the cook grate closed off? One shot in the video looks like air will only enter on top of the
cook grate.
Hey Jeremy test a Shirley offset. I see people that get them really speak highly of them.
