Just bought the Pro Model…on the East Oak site..free shipping and $40.00 off…will update after it arrives and after my first smoke…great price..$259.00 delivered!
I have the standard model. So far it’s worked well. I’ve never had the wood chip draw blow out during smoking like some people say.. I just wish the smoke vent would close more than it does. I also use a digital probe thermometer that I run the cable thru the vent . Mine has a remote transmitter that I can keep in the house to monitor the meat temperature. So far so good. Nice smoker.
I just bought the basic model one, going to smoke some food tomorrow! Can you make a video on the pre seasoning of the smoker, the instructions said to wash with soap and spray with cooking oil & then let it run for 2hrs at a temperature they recommend
just wash it, dry it, wipe down with almost any oil since they only go up to 275 and olive oil flash point is 350 for two hours, then 3rd hour add chips of choice for an hour or so and let it cool. Youre good to go. wipe down the glass with soapy water when its still warm.
It varies on the temperature setting, the higher the setting the faster the wood chips will burn. For the ribs I did in the video the temp, was set at 185 to 220 for right around 6 hours. I refilled the wood chip box 2 times. The chip box is pretty small, so overall a bag of chips should be enough for more than one smoke. Thanks for watching!
The first vertical electric smoker I had was a Masterbuilt stainless steel with a glass front it lasted about 10 years was a great smoker how to replace the element once then other issues started with it bought another Masterbuilt basically like the one without the glass on this video it's a piece of crap won't hold temperature fluctuates by almost 20° so I think I'm going to check one of these out this is a great video thanks I do not recommend Masterbuilt you will not be happy with it
There is a lot of conversation on this topic. I favor using what is recommended by the manufacturer since that is how they designed the product to work properly.
I am a NEWby, yesterday I used my new East Oak Pro for the first time. I know that you have alot of experience at using smokers so am asking could you please help me out? Yesterday, I followed their instructions and did the pre-heat to 175, using Apple wood chips, I could see the smoke thru the glass and it was coming out the side, got a face full and glasses fogged when opened that door - OK - the mystery, I ran it for close to 5 hrs, and the inside did not get smoky and smoke did not come out the side that whole time.....I even set some of the chips and added to it but NO smoke, WHAT is happening, I was looking forward to eating some delicious smoked meats??? I did a whole chicken, 3 small chicken breasts, 2 small bb ribs, and 3 taters. Taste wise I could have used my oven in the house. Can you explain why I lacked da SMOKE? TKS
Assuming there wasn’t an issue with the smoker, which it sounds like there may not have been if you had heat the entire time. The only thing that would prevent you from having smoke is lack of wood chips or possibly wet/moist chips. If that was not the case you may need to contact the manufacturer. BTW the ribs in the video were purchased from Sam’s Club. They refer to them as baby back.
I personally do not have any experience using pellets in this smoker. I do know pellets burn hotter and produce more smoke than chips. I did find a video on YT that talks about pellets in this style smoker. Search “Can you use pellets in a Masterbuilt electric smoker”. At the end of the day the smoker is designed to use wood chips, so I would be cautious using another type of wood source. Thanks for watching!
I would contact manufacturer. Having said that, I don't think there would ever be a situation where you would want it completely closed. Thanks for watching!

How long do the wood chips last?

As far as using one smoker for both meat and vegetables/potatoes etc, meat on bottom racks,rest top side would be best?
Thanks for watching
Can you use wood pellets vs wood chips?
The manual says not to because it will cause a fire.
There is a lot of conversation on this topic. I favor using what is recommended by the manufacturer since that is how they designed the product to work properly.
Can i fill the chip bowl with weed and just stick my head in and breath in?
You never know. Thanks for watching!

I was looking at getting the pro model haven't been able to read anywhere if your able to use pellets instead of chips wondering if you had any input

Instructions specifically state no pellets or chunks. Must be chips.
I know people who have pellet smokers and chip smokers the chips give off more smoke and a better flavor
Just recieved mine without the glass. I noticed the vent doesnt close all the way,is that an issue?
I would contact manufacturer. Having said that, I don't think there would ever be a situation where you would want it completely closed. Thanks for watching!
Just got ours with the glass and the vent doesn't close all the way either.
Those don't look like Baby Back Ribs, know they r pork, please tell, what are they called? TKS GOOD Video! U did dem PROUD!
Thanks for watching!
He never said anything about the ribs being baby back ribs he just said ribs
Look uo St Louis ribs. The meat on baby backs is on top, while St Louis has the meat between the ribs, and are are better in my personal opinion
Whats the amp draw on the smokers?
The smoker has a power rating of 800W. When connected to a voltage of 120V, the amp draw is 6.67A. Thanks for watching!
@@zevoutdoors7194 That's at full power. You wouldn't be using that under normal operating conditions
@@mattseaton5832 You are correct that is the units max power rating and should be available at the power source being used for the smoker.
