- ring the Oklahoma Joe's Bronco to the Pit Barrel Cooker. What a fun cook indeed. Dis a rack of Prime Beef Ribs on each. Same rubs, same wood, same charcoal. If you were torn between these two cookers, tune in to see what I learned.

I love this split screen! This is awesome!
Jon! I enjoyed doing it but what a pain 😂🤣 Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Both great cookers.
Love the look of the Bronco.
Excellent editing!
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
I hope to see "Dicky and the Noob" in future videos...great job...and the beef ribs looked great! Nice smoke ring.
I am wanting to do more videos like this one in the future, it is extremely difficult to edit but well worth the effort. I much appreciate you stopping in and leaving a comment. It can be very hard to get to everyone and check out videos,we only have so much time in the day, so it is much appreciated!
Very fair comparison! I’m looking for a similar cooker in that price point. To me the Oklahoma Joes might have some small advantages. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your experience and thoughts!
I agree, the Oklahoma Joe does have the advantage! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
@@uncledickie However, I just watched the video you posted about the Oklahoma Joes, Pit barrel cooker AND the Weber Smokey Mountain. I already have a 22” Weber kettle performer, I am leaning towards the Weber. Simply because I have Plenty of experience on the product not to mention a boat load of accessories that will more than likely transition nicely to a 22” Smokey mountain. Thanks again for comparing the three cookers. I know there probably is no clear answer to what one is the best. I guess what might make the end user to make his/ her mind up is what they are wanting versus what they already have.
Those ribs looked amazing! I own a PBC and frickin love it! But I saw the Bronco at a hardware store and was intrigued. It looks awesome!
I appreciate this video. I'm a noob too, but I'm not dumb, and I need to buy a smoker, and was already leaning towards a pit barrel because of what other people said, you just confirmed.
It's a great purchase and you won't be disappointed. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Awesome job Noob and Dickie, beef ribs looked great! Hahaha nice editing bro and fun video!
Thanks Ricer! I just wanted to try different editing techniques, it was fun...not fun to edit lol. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Great editing in the video and good comparison. After owning both the PBC and the Bronco, I’d probably have to go with the PBC. It’s just easier to use and cooks great food. I do still like them both though. However, I would take a WSM over both of the cookers. I added a hanging rack and a firedial diffuser and it’s way more versatile.
Thanks Edward! When I compared the WSM I fell in love with it
The “eye candy” just had me starting! Great video - I bought OKJ Bronco yesterday!
Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Like I said on Facebook, this editing is amazing. Fantastic comparison, very insightful between the barrels. Top shelf 👌😎👍👍👍
Thanks for the kind words and support! I enjoy both these smokers for sure!
Awesome video guys! The ribs look fantastic! You 2 should be in Vegas too!
Haaaaa! Rob...it was fun to do but a nightmare to edit lol. Beef Ribs are now my favorite!
I really liked the video but I mainly subscribed because of the “helper”/split screen!! I kept cracking up the whole time! I love that kind of humor! Keep it up and I hope to see more videos like this!
I’ve been going back and forth for moths on which barrel type smoker to get...PBC, Bronco, barrel house cooker, WSM....ahhh they all seem so good...
I'll definitely have more videos like this coming out. Every cooker you mentioned are all great! That's a very difficult decision but honestly I don't think you could go wrong with any of the three!
I really liked that split screen editing. Something I definitely appreciate. I have the Bronco and love that smoker. I Don’t have the PBC , but I do have a Barrel House Cooker and it is set n forget as well. Thanks for sharing
Meat! Thanks for stopping in and dropping a comment, it is very much appreciated sir! I need to look up the Barrel House Cooker, that sounds interesting! I would like to do a something with a UDS in the future and maybe mix in a Barrel House Cooker!
Great job on the comparison. I have a Pitt Barrel cooks amazing but looking for a little more challenge taking the plunge getting a Bronco.
I'm working on a Weber Smokey Mountain/ PBC/ Bronco comparison. Life has been crazy for the last 5months so I'm just now getting back. Thanks for stopping in and commenting!
I just pulled the trigger on the bronco.
What's your favorite now if you had to pick one.
Ben! That's an extremely difficult question to answer lol. After this video, I'd have to say the Bronco! After the video with the WSM, I'd say it's a toss up. They are all great choices and can't go wrong either way. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Just found your channel, sub 4life. Cant wait to learn more about grilling now that I'm stuck home cuz of this virus. Love charcoal!
Thanks! I'm learning something new everyday, because I've only been grilling for a little over a year. Down in Texas this week for Memorial Day with the family and picking up a new grill for under 100 bucks to do a video on for next week. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated.
Haha that was hilarious Dickie and really amazing editing. Pretty cool comparison, I've never tried either cooker but I can see both being good smokers. Have a great weekend you two! :)
Charley! Thanks for stopping by! Unfortunately iam working the weekend but editing another video. Thanks for the support, it is very much appreciated!
Great comparison video ... Those beef ribs turned out excellent . Great bark and smoke ring and packed with flavor . I'm deffently going to try that black garlic puree .. Cheers
Definitely worth it John! Hopefully I can get me a UDS like what you got now and do some cooks on it.
I have seen the Bronco and love the look of them. But I love my PBC and it's never let me down. That being said I wouldn't turn any of it down. LOL!!! Awesome job bro.
Thanks Scott! Man oh man those ribs turned out great, thanks for sharing your beef ribs video! I'm still learning and improving. This video and the next one I put out are older videos and hopefully my video quality starts improving along with my cooking. Thanks again for stopping by, it is very much appreciated sir!
Very nice. I did this on my shrimp video a while back. This takes a lot of work. Great job. !! I really like your bronco.
Johnny! Thanks for stopping in! It is very difficult to edit for sure, took close to 12 hours and I still had to reshoot scenes. But it was really fun to do. Thanks for the support sir! I used your advice from your last video for setting this up on RUclips.
You know I was about a third of the way through this before I caught on. I haven't watched your vids yet, so didn't know what to expect. What you did was fantastic and very technique savy, plus the humor. I'm love humorous videos. The beef ribs turned out great. I think you summed it up perfectly on the comparison. Enjoyed watching.
Phil ! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, I very much appreciate it! It was a very fun video to shoot...no fun to edit lol. I think beef ribs are my favorite to cook and eat now but there is so much I haven't done so I imagine that will change. Thanks again for stopping by!
Bronco for me… Wheels, heavier steel, (portability, better heat retention in colder climates, longevity) also the ability to grill on the Bronco makes it more versatile. Sorry but I can’t see spending that kinda cash on a 55 gallon drum with a few horseshoes welded to it.. great video and the ribs look awesome! New sub
Loved the video. Lol and your blooper. Haha. 😂 Thats me all the time. Haha 😂Anyhoo. Loved this. And LOVEDD the split screen. Wow.. that was freaking awesome! 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣. Ok so the beef ribs looked AMAZING HONEY.. thx for sharing. Awesome video. My fav so far!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥😘
Best part. You say. “You’re doing fine job”
He/YOU look back at you and shake your head. Omgggg dying. Lol 😂
Rexy! Thanks for the kind words! It was a lot of fun doing this video, but the editing was a nightmare lol.I could have a blooper reel 3months long lol.Thanks for stopping by, and the Beef Ribs are by far my favorite,food wise and video wise!
Good Eats With The Noob hahaha. I can imagine. Lol 😂
I'm glad I found this video. I've been wanting one of these 2 smokers. Still not sure which one. Other then the bronco I can buy locally.
Meegs, The Bronco is a great cooker, and it can be extremely difficult choosing! The next video i made has the Webe4 Smokey Mountain included and makes the choice even harder but at the end i broke them down very fairly. Check it out and see if it helps. There is also a video with the specs of all 3 cookers. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated.
Picked up bronco last August at walmart for $184 and it is awesome, smoke, bbq and grill steaks
They both looked great.. Love these comparison videos I like the editing you did too. Keep up the great work you do.
Thanks for the kind words Joe! I really like doing comparison stuff, now to just get better at it!
Noob's BBQ & More love the video and really love the hats
Thanks! More videos after the World Championship next week!
Wow. That PBC works great. My buddy has 2 Bronco smokers. He trying to convince me to get one. Im not 100% sold yet. He says his temp drops noticeably afrer 4 hours and starts a new fire. It didn't appear that you had that issue. Great video. Your ribs looked awesome. I needed a napkin after your third bite too!
Danny, I just won my first SCA with my PBC after just 3 competitions( I placed in the other 2 as well) so it's not just for ribs lol. They are both great, but the PBC is easier to maneuver and a little easier to use. Thanks for watching and commenting, it is very much appreciated!
Nice job on the ribs and the video. It really seemed like you were two different dudes! I enjoyed watching!
Thanks for stopping by and checking er out! It was really fun doing this video, a pain editing but fun shooting. The ribs turned out great, really surprised me. I think beef ribs are my new favorite.
I wish you would show how you got the charcoal going.
I'll show how to start a proper fire for low and slow on my next video. Thanks for watching!
You just got a new subscriber. I’m a noob to smoking and just bought a Bronco. 👍
Thanks for subbing! It's easy once you get an idea where to run your vents. And that should only take you a couple of cooks. Thanks for the comment!
Awesomeness! Great work.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! It is very much appreciated! I plan on doing more videos like this in the future.
Thumbs up just for the intro!
Bryan! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Great video man! It cracked me up. Those ribs looked amazing!
Brandon! Thanks for the kind words! Hopefully the house is done soon and we can get back filming. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
How did you get charcoal going and how long before clean smoke instead of heavy white smoke? Thanks
Great fun video... first timer!
Kevin! It was a lot of fun doing it! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
fermented garlic is awesome! Beef ribs are in my opinion the best bbq you can make. Sal sent me :-)
I would have to agree ! Beef ribs are my absolute favorite now! Sal has some great videos and runs! Thanks for stopping by and commenting, it is very much appreciated!
Yummers. And nice editing skills.
Saw you on DaddyDutchBbq.
Thanks for stopping in! I saw you over at Daddy Dutch channel as well. It was a pain in the butt to edit but a lot of fun to shoot.
How much sugar was innthst rub?
Never seen bark on bone before
Hi great video. Can we cook with only wood and not charcoals?
This was great!!’ Very nicely done...two thumbs WAY UP!!!
Cad! Thanks for checking it out! Was very fun to do and hopefully i can do some more videos like this in the future. I appreciate the comment, it is very much appreciated!
I picked up my bronco at walmart last August new for $184 on sale, smokes, bbq and grills steaks
Great price! I picked up my second on sale at Walmart too! Best money i spent! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
I really like my PBC ! That Bronco looks good too! Ribs looked excellent! Rock On Noob!
Sal! i really enjoyed smoking on both of these smokers...now if i could only talk my wife into letting me buy more i could do more comparison videos lol. Thanks for stopping by sir!
i love my pit barrel cooker it is just to easy
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! I love my PBC as well! It is my go to when i do comps and it performs great. I am working on a new video where i compare the WSM/PBC/Bronco but wasn't able to finish it last weekend due to illness. Hoping to get that finished this coming weekend.
@@uncledickie sounds great hope you are feeling better i just started my new channel got a little bit of ever thing on there but got 2 cooking videos on the pit barrel on there and ill be glad when the rain moves out so i can smoke on it friday look forward t seeing your next video
This was not only a good comparison it was a good video. The editing was good but the script /storyboard was a top tier idea. The ribs looked good too.
The wind on Dickie’s side of the screen was quite strong.
Is he the same Dickie that had the chain of store front BBQ joints “Dickie’s BBQ Pitt”?
Big Lew! Not the same Dickie lol. When I moved up to kansas no one could pronounce my last name correctly. It's Richard(i know you know how it's pronounced lol) and they called me Richard for ever and of course that turned into " Dick " and that turned into Dickie. Thanks for stopping in and commenting, it is very much appreciated sir!
Good Eats With The Noob C’est bon Cher! Ree-sh-ARD
Good video, but watch out for that rub contamination.. You might as well be dabbing your finger in the jar as long as you’re wiping it off of the spoon with your rubbing hand. Just my two cents.
Too damn funny ! Great job “Guys” !
Kent! Thanks for stopping in. It was a lot of fun to do but a bitch to edit. Thanks for the comment!
As you know, I have the Pit Barrel Cooker. It is easy to use. I was at Wally World the other day and saw the Bronco on clearance for about $250. I thought about picking one up in case my 1st gen PBC ever rusts out but opted not to.
The things I like about the Bronco are that you hook food higher I believe. That means, I would think, you could hook a whole slab of ribs that you can't always do on the PBC. I also like that you can dial in temps quickly and easily with the Bronco and that you have arms/trays to set food beside it.
The PBC is more mobile. The Bronco is heavy like a tank! Water collects on the PBC lid (not ideal but not horrible) but water can get in the exhaust of the Bronco if left open. I wonder if that might have any effect on things if you smoke in the rain? I'm not real sure how the ash removal compares.
Ash removal is much easier on the Bronco IMO, but you are correct when you say the Bronco is a tank lol. I actually use my PBC for SCA events because it's so light and its a set it and forget it setup. I do like them both , and they produce great tasting BBQ, What a great comment! Thanks for stopping by.
What about getting a 15 pound brisket on the bronco, it doesn't look very wide
@@lyleswavel320 The width wouldn't be an issue at all. The only concern would be how long the brisket is when hanging it. Of course you wouldn't want it touching the coals in the bottom.
Great video and a great hat! Geaux Tigers!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting, it is very much appreciated! spam issues with comments were an issue so hopefully i can get back to everyone!
Cool video. Beside the fact of one being easier to use for a beginner, which do you think is a better quality, and better all around. For an experienced cook? Thanks for the video. 👍
I'd have to go with the Bronco!
@@uncledickie Awesome man. Thanks!
Lol, great video, funny as hell!
Thanks for stopping in and commenting it is very much appreciated! We are working on another comparison video and hope to have it out soon.
We will stay contact 👍👍👍
Right off the bat. If you own a smoker dont over apply seasoning. The smoker does the job.
What gaskets did you use?
The ribs look very good. What brand is your thermometer? I have not been able to find one that is sturdy enough to withstand the grill heat. Very nice video.
In this video i used the Maverick XR50. I have switched to the Thermoworks Smoke 4 channel. Not sure about the Maverick but the Thermoworks offers probes that will go to 660 degrees Fahrenheit, but they can get expensive. I do competition cooking so the switch was important to me but for anyone doing back yard BBQ, I'd say the Maverick is a great option. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated.
Great Job Awesome video
Brad! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Great video and Geaux Tigers!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Geaux Tigers!
Great editing
Brian! Thanks! It was a huge pain but worth it. Covid and life has caused me to stop filming but hopefully by the end of January we'll be back with new comparisons. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
Would loved to have seen a WSM as a 3rd cooker but nice video.
I plan on doing a comparison with a WSM soon!
Great channel!
Thanks! I'm prepping for a SCA competition and should have more videos out soon
Great video. +1 sub for the creativity. Did you notice any flavor difference? I've heard the PB gives a char flavor due to the grease hitting the coals. Your experience?
They tasted the same, The Bronco has a removable heat shield so you can get the same effect. Sorry for the late response, just got a new job so no more 90 hour weeks!
Hello I am new here we are friends now 👍👍👍
Awesome! Glad you stopped in!
great video. Did you use wood or just charcoal?
Jolo! I use wood chunks buried in the charcoal. That way it smolders and gets better smoke. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
@@uncledickie great thanks, waiting for my Bronco to arrive.
Great video. Subscribed
Thanks for stopping by! More videos coming after the SCA World Championship!
Great video glad I subscribed!
Thanks for stopping by! Sorry for the delayed response, been out doing comps. I appreciate the sub and comment!
Just subscribed to your channel. Funny video.
Thanks for stopping by! It was a fun video to do but hard to edit lol. I appreciate the comment!
Did you use the same amount of charcoal in each of them and was dampers opened the same, how many inches for cooking surface on both
Same amount of charcoal, same amount of wood and same amount of charcoal starters. The PBS is set according to their spec for the elevation I live at. The Bronco can be tuned with the dampers to control temperature and I had them both between 275-300 if I remember correctly. I'll be doing a video comparing these two to a WSM and have better temperature information then
But, which cooker will last longer?
Not sure, I've had both for a little while now and both are still in excellent shape. The Bronco, IMO, is more heavy duty but I keep my grills under a roof and covered. And I cook on both of the at least 3 times a week and they are both still solid.
Great job. What was the name of that paste you put on those ribs?
Black garlic Puree. Thanks for stopping by and commenting, it is very much appreciated.
Is the bronco wide enough to cook a 15 # brisket or so on it, it looked small in diameter
Bronco is 18 inches wide, PBC is 18.5 I believe. Should hold a large brisket no problem. What lots of folks do is start them out hanging - they'll shrink quite a bit - then place on grate after a several hours.
Very nice recipe😍😋👏👌👌👍😍👍👏😋like.
Thanks for stopping in!
👏👍👏I saw your beautiful video. Your video is so cool. ❤️❤️👍👍👍 friends. Thank you. like + ❤️❤️❤
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out, it is very much appreciated!
Easier to control heat on bronco. Pit barrel will burn the end closest to fire 9 times out of ten. Jmo
I agree, I did the comparison again and added a Weber Smokey Mountain. There are actually 2 videos on the new comparison. One video I go through the spec's of each cooker, and the other is a cook off . I score each unit and it is a much better comparison I believe. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated.
Is that an old countrygrill , in the background
Yes sir!
I have a Peco smoker , and love it.
@@jdavis02136 ,it's my favorite smoker! When I'm not practicing for SCA it's the smoker I enjoy the most!
Is that the junior pit barrel
No sir, it's the full size.
I have a video giving the spec's of this cooker and the Bronco and the Weber smokey mountain. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
Your to funny. Very very nice.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting...very much appreciated!
Geaux Tigers!
Yes indeed! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, it is very much appreciated!
what kind of gasket did you use? i've been trying to find one that wont melt but cant find any? what did you use?
Dane I used a Lavalock gasket I bought from Amazon

What about build quality? Which has thicker steel?
