Alright everyone. hahahaha. I will start doing the lip test on all my ribs if I can remember while filming. I forgot to do that this video. :D
I have a pitboss pellet pellet smoker grill. Because of the convection fan cooking due to keeping the main feed hopper lit you don't get enough smoke flavor because it's just blowing the smoke out too fast. I bought 2 smoker tubes and put them just to the left on the grill and it adds enough smoke flavor finally.
awesome!!!!
You know what they say-where there’s smoke there’s BBQ.
Glenn Steinmo I’ve had my pit boss and have been disappointed with the weak smoke flavor. If you do a long smoke (butt or brisket) how many times do you refill the tube?
How long did you smoke the ribs? Did you sauce them or put a rub on them before hand? They have a nice color to them, but when they went on, looked raw with nothing. Also Ive heard you dont put the tube over a flame? Im just trying to figure out how to use this tube I got for Christmas.
Evryone is trying it, everyone loves it - as he shows a screencap of 7 reviews with 3.5 stars.
I have no idea if its good or not, and do wish you all the success but that really made me chuckle.
It's wonderful to see how excited you get over food! I love it. We can't grill where we live, darn it, but I still enjoy watching you grill.

I bought one last week and filled it full of pellets to burn it in. It smoked great for over 4 hrs. Can't wait to use it on the camp chef.
I have 2 of those. Great smoking upgrade for pellet grills. Also use it in my Weber for cold smoking
Looking at 8 more inches of snow Sunday. I can't wait to start using my char griller akorn more this summer. Already smoked a chicken and pork shoulder on it beginning March.
That thing did awesome! Thanks for helping Johnny! He’s a nice man. Blessings, Jack!
Just got one today. Can't wait to try it!
I love my smoke tube !! I have a gas grill and I can put meat on the top rack leave the tube at the bottom and indirect heat using only the two outside burners. Works great. Another alt use for the tube is to leave it upright and set on a brick. That smoke so much it repels mosquitoes wonderfully.
One thing that can help with your pellet smokers is close your hats more on your stacks. I did that with my Members Mark and it made a hell of a difference! more smoke flavor and you can see more smoke out the stack too! But you still have room for more smoke flavor compared to stick smokers so gonna try one of these out with my pellet smoker and see ho much stronger of a smoke taste I can get.
Awesome job Jack, love your videos. I'm going to try your bbq sauce
Great review and will be trying this on my gas grill. I have 3 smokers and was about to sell the gas grill. Now, I can't wait to try this! Love Chef Johnny, he is awesome!
I bought a Amazing extendable oval smoking tube, its 7in. extends to 12in. . The thing works Amazing in my Char-Broil electric vertical smoker. Highly Recommended
I'm glad that you help us with this, Cooking Jack. I've learned so much from you, and it's BBQ season again. So, I plan to get good at it (one year) by watching Experts like you. Thanks for helping me feed my family at a more affordable price. I just can't earn neough to eat out with the prices that we are starting to see at restaurants.
Can I use the 12 inch smoke tube in an electric 26 inch Hollow smoker
Hi, I just bought the A-MAZE-SMOKER EXPANDEBLE for my brand-new Weber-Gas-Grill Q2200... As you surly know it's not a very big grill... But I wanted a small one... If I would put the original Weber-Smokerbox on it there wouldn't be much space left for meat... So I was very happy to find this tiny smoker! I'm really looking forward to try out if and how it works! I bought hickory-BBQ -woodchips for the first try... And I hope it will make my BBQ as tasty as yours! I like your Video! Greetings from Germany! 😊
I have a new Traeger but this makes me glad I didn't retire the Weber Genisis. Still going strong!
How long did it take to smoke the ribs on the gas grill? At what temp do you set your gas grill? Thanks!
I have a Napoleon gas grill and I am wondering how this would work with chicken on a rotisserie. Thoughts? I also a Weber Kettle Grill that I smoke with.
But you don't want thick white smoke. Thin blue smoke is want you're looking for.
Looks awesome Jack! I've only used smoker boxes on my grill. I'll look this one up. Cheers brother!
I have the tray I use it for smoking salt and peppercorns it will burn normally for nine hours in my Weber kettle.Never seen more than a 6 degrees raise in temperature with my thermoworks smoke x4.
Dude. I am so ready to try it. Thanks 🤜🤛
Could this be used with small hickory wood pieces that I soak in water and then just leave them on the grates? Would I need to light it with a torch or could I just leave it on the grate?
just a side note. you are supposed to light the open end of the tube.
why ?
@@euphratessful For one thing, your torch I suspect, could melt or warp the end cap with it held so long in one spot.
What smoker grill is you favorite?
How much of the pellets did it burn through after it was done?
Jesus, 2 mins in and just now getting to the product 😂
I lucked out and found that same smoker tube new at a Goodwill for 3 bucks, works great.
I love my smoke tube! You can also use it to cold smoke salmon, cheese, sea salt, etc. Keep the grill off and light the tube... Smoke for hours at less than 80 degrees.
Have had one for long time. I like it but have noticed two things. I use it for my traeger as they don't put out much smoke unless on smoke setting. When it gets over 275 it extinguishes. Also the smoke from it tastes a bit more bitter.
Been using mine for sometime now. Works great and the Pitmasters Choice pellets by the same company, put excellent flavor on meat. I haven't smoked any fish yet though.
Smoked Salmon with Alder. 😋
Really wish we could try the sauces in Canada
I make smoked gravlax, this would help a ton! Thank you!
Would I use this is a combi oven
I just started watching your videos and I must say you are amazing. Keep up the good work☺👍
thanks France Boy. Welcome to the family
Cooking With Jack Show You actually replied😮. Whenever I comment on a video, Noone ever answers me😮☺. Thanks
France Boy: I am not Jack but, I'll give you a "shout-out" anyway. Have a good day.
Yeah, my green mountain grill pellet smoker doesn't keep up with the smoke either. I use the sake tube even in my pellet smoker. It works so good. Great vid
Thanks for sharing
Jack, i own one too, its awsome,,, be careful not to "over" smoke with it, on weber, gas, i need to adjust my fill" and not run it full sometimes...
I noticed that all of the ash drops in the smoker/grill when you try to retrieve and/or refill after it burns.
What I did is I put this under the tube before I lit it: I tripled up aluminum foil about 6 inches wide by 1 inch longer on each end than the tube. When burn is done, wrap the foil over the whole works and lift out. No ash on meat/cheese/veggies.
nice
Glad I saw this. I was going to out it on the top rack (like I've seen someone else to) so I'm glad I saw this before trying it haha
The ribs looked great Jack. That smoking tube was doing the job. Thanks for that shout out. I have my tube review on my rotisserie chicken video. I will be having just the review video coming out in the next couple of days. Thanks again for the mention and for the great review.
my pleasure. hope people visit your channel
I’ve had bad luck setting the tube down on its side. I also bought the 12”. I can’t hang the tube because the tube is too long. I may try a 6” so I can hang it.
Hey jack could I use this to smoke a Turkey in my gas grill
I can’t keep mine lit in my pellet smoker and I’ve tried every trick in the book. It works if the smoker is not running but if I turn on my smoker as soon as the fan kicks on it snuffs out the ama zin smoke tube.
But does it work, does it leave sut?can you get a smoke ring?
Love your videos!
I use that exact same tube to do cold smoking cheese
Just did some cold smoked cheese,hard boiled eggs,and,fish. Works awesome.
LOL! This was fun to watch. Simultaneously, pure torture! So hungry. Looked amazing, Jack!
any plans to try cold smoking with this thing?
What brand pellets did you use? Which do you like best? There are several brands of wood pellet brands out there, would you consider doing a product comparison some time on them? Keep up the good work, I love your show!
Nice review Jack! That sure didn’t go down the tubes! Lol
I can't wait for the summer it going to be a great year
rarecoolitems
Shoot down here in Texas it's already grillin season.
Wow it worked. No rub or seasoning. I think I will try that
Those things look great
Jack they looked amazing. On a side note I am looking for a recipe on Minestrone soup and I was wondering if you had any on your channel? I have been looking all day and I can't find one. Thanks in advance.
i am in Canada and i just found out there is a season for BBQ
I supplement my pellet smoker with one of these. You have to be careful though it will over smoke your meat if you leave it too long
Very true,I found out the hard way lol!
Nice looking smoke ring
Just picked one up today. I'm bout to put to the test with hickory and some ribs.
I'm very new to pellet smokers. I'm a stick burner SNOB!!!! And I'm just letting you know. First thing I learned about a smoker. White smoke is bad, bad, bad. Leaves a bitter taste. Light blue is what you want. Once you get that. You will taste the difference. I promise you.
100% agree... smh when i backyard hacks add so much wood that it looks like their house is on fire. billowing white (dirty) smoke is disgusting.
I think per the instructions you have to light it from the open end.
Hi, thanks for video, its so usefull for grill. I wonder about that, what kind of wood pellets did you use on this video. Thanks for your answer.
Any kind
I love mesquite best
Look bro the first rule of eating bbq is, and I quote "if you come away clean you ain't eating it right!" So don't worry about it real good food you can't just put it down easily. I am going to try it out!
Does it need heat from the grill to keep it going? Like can I use this to cold smoke?
This is perfect for cold smoking!
5:05 I love it!! LOL
You lit the wrong end, and the instructions say do not place it over flame. The flavor is not as good as my pit boss and definitely not as much as An offset. You get a wisp of smoke. Works well in the winter for cheese.
Yep, agreed. My Pit Boss and Yoder seem to smoke a lot cleaner by themselves. Cold smoking is the real reason to buy one of these.
I have used a Camp Chef pellet grill in the past and found that I had to use that smoke tube. To enhance the smoke flavor of the meat I was cooking. Over and above the pellet grill itself. Now that I have gone back to a natural gas grill/bbq. I will definitely give it a try.
Sounds great!
I have been using the smoking tube for years. I feel screwed that amzn changed the design from round to oval. Great product improvement, mine would roll and ash would fly... Always put the tube away from the heat. Works awesome for cold smoking.
Was wondering if u need an apprentice. Or a taste tester. I'm sure u get tired of tasting all that good food.
Just let me know where to send my resume.
The only problem I found with the gas BBQ's is that the back of the BBQ is open with vents and it will not hold the smoke in.
I cover them with aluminum foil
If I purchase a Pellet Joe from Kamada grills, should I purchase this smoker tube as well?
If you want to cold smoke, yes. Otherwise just throw a couple chunks of your favorite smoking wood on the lump charcoal once you get to temp.
What to do if you're getting more fire then smoke from your smoke tube
The instructions say to blow out the flame after a few minutes. It's supposed to burn like incense. I'm using mine today and because I have a small gas grill I can't really take it away from the flame so it lit up. I used a flexible cutting board and blew it out by fanning it really hard. I hope you like it. I love mine.
A note to all.. (from an ol hillbilly).. do NOT put ANY kind of grill/smoker this close to your vinyl siding... you can see the warped siding on this house. Have common sence for Christ's sake.. lol
Traditional product PVC has a maximum operating temperature around 140°F (60°C) when heat distortion begins to occur. (from the wiki on vinyl)
HHHHHaahahahahahahaaaa truth!!!
Been there done that,, good advice
Hillbilly FPV no kidding! I saw that as well and I went off with WTF!!!
Well, he did light the wrong end of the smoker tube, so ....
melted vinyl siding behind the silverbac skoker grill , move that grill away from the house when you have plastic siding , ive seen it 100 times !
Hi Jack!!! Those ribs looked delicious, LOL even though I don’t like ribs : ). Great review as always!!! 😁 Happy Easter to you and your family!! 🐰🥕🐣💐
happy easter to you too. thanks.
First time using this tube with Traeger Hickory pellets, In my Traeger Pro 34 with Traeger Hickory pellets ! I smoked homemade Pepperettes as usual but have found them to be tasting bitter this time ! Would it be the extra smoke from the Hickory do you think ?
Possibly over smoked, maybe try using a quarter less the amount of pellets you were using
@@DoorKnub Thanks
"Amazing tube smoker..." lol
um gonna get one for camping, and try it in my crappy Coleman camp oven.
plan makin a vid on our chefgirledie ch, after I get the stuff.
I use the maze version to smoke chesse in a Masterbuilt Pro smoker. Cheese on top ice water in the middle and maze smoker on the bottom with apple pellets. Soo tasty.
what kind of cheese?
I use the maze version in my Masterbuilt too. Never smoked cheese before but I really want to.
I have something similar, mine is hexoganal, and it smokes for about 5 hours.
Which one?
Ah yes, before I bought a Rec Tec smoker I tried a Cuisinart smoker tray and felt it was a waste of money in my gas grill. My Rec Tec arrived last week and tried it out immediately, but was also disappointed in the small amount of smoke it produced. However, a few days later my Amazn smoker tube showed up and, like you, was amazed by the amount of smoke it produced. Will be smoking a whole chicken with it on the Weber gas grill later this morning. If you like smoke....buy one of these.
I've had my rec tec for about 2 years now and have never had an issue getting a good smoke. But I would like to start cold smoking some stuff and this seems like the way to go for sure.
Very cool! Could I use any type of smoke pellet with this or does it need to be the pellets made by the same company? Just wondering if they would stay lit.
any wood pellets would work
Use sawdust
Thanks Jack!
Haha those ribs look A-Maze-N 🤣
That is awesome
Looks to be a solid BBQ tip for those with a gas grill. And if the smoker ain't a smokein you ain't gettin no flavor nor smoke!
What temperature did you use for 2.5 hours? Thanks for the awesome vid! Smashed a like!
You want to keep your grill temp at 250-275 degrees for smoking. If the grill gets to hot the pellets or chip will combust
@@willnchicago696 I smoke even lower than that @225 for most everything
mrhazel
👍🏻 I don’t think I could keep my grill that low.
@@willnchicago696 oh yeah thats rigjt. Ive switched over to electric pellet grills
Way eaiser to regulate temps. my last grill was the char briol half charcoal half gas grill. I have 5-10 yrs experince with wood and gas so i see where you're coming from.
You def need to watch it a lot more
Jack. I tried using this with my Traeger and I don't understand all I know about it, but it caused the combustion cup to fill up with pellets and then they caught on fire. This happened on two different occasions. I've had to quit using mine on my Traeger.
It might be because of where you placed it inside the smoker. Make sure it's away from the heat prob that's inside. Try placing it at the other end.
put in on top of the grill not below
Originally bought this so I can make a cold smoker out of a cooler.....they say it’s gotta be real cold out to smoke cheese....I’m about to make something that changes that
Wow!
I have one and I cannot get that thing to stay lit. It goes out in a few minutes. I've put it in all different places in the grill thinking it wasn't getting enough oxygen, it doesn't matter what I do the thing always goes out.
I dont think it's supposed to stay lit. I think what your want is more of a smoldering action.
Make sure your pellets are dry. Keep them indoors with air-conditioning. Pellets are made out of compressed sawdust and they soak up humidity fast.
Nice
Not gonna lie, BBQ I've had off Traegers and pellet stoves taste like it came out of the oven to me. I prefer food out of an actual smoker or charcoal grill until I first used the smoke tube in a gas grill. Adds plenty of smoke flavor to the meat and enhances the flavor.
Wonderful! Blessings friend 💕
Try making white BBQ sauce please?
How come you didn't do the lip test on the rib?
OKAY. I'll start lip testing my ribs. hahaha
Subscribed and liked!
The season? I BBQ all year long,,,
Maybe none of my business but to be safer, If it was me, I move my grill away from my house when grilling.. I have seen many house fires from melting vinyl from grills being to close to the house...
There definitely is less smoke, but could it be that the Silverbac just had thinner smoke that was tougher to see? Not sure just wondering. I’ve heard that you want thinner smoke usually. But as long as they taste good!
same wood pellets used in both grills
Good pellets are NOT flavored, they are made from 100% wood. The different wood types, such hickory, mesquite, etc. impart flavor, but the pellets are not flavored. Also, the white smoldering smoke you see is actually the bad, dirty smoke. Any good pitmaster, including Aaron Franklin, will tell you that you want that clear blueish smoke, not the heavy white stuff like you see coming from this tube.
yup. white smoke is disgusting. literally your meats giving off an SOS smoke signal. for pellets, ive ran a Yoder (best IMO), Memphis, Traeger (complete garbage, Chinese junk), and Cookshack. decent smokes considering the convenience, but not comparable to a real stick
That’s what she said!
Wow
