I have been watching a lot of smoker videos for the purpose of building one myself. None have been as informative in describing how heat distribution works. My mind was racing with homemade ideas to replicate what you explained. Thank you for putting this together.
Thank you so much bro, this helped a lot in understanding the concept and use of a smoker. I also understand the difference between a smoker and grill.
I bought a chargrill offset smoker last year. This WHOLE time I've been putting my coal on the bottom bars off the cooking chamber, and my meats above it on the grates. I don't even use the smoker box at all. No water pan either. Can you believe I've made steaks, chicken, lamb etc with no problem besides constantly having to tend to the coal/wood fire, constantly moving the meat to move the grates, to reach the coal underneath lol. Smh and the food STILL came out amazing every time. Glad I learned all this today. Now I wanna experiment and use it the right way. Edit: And I use lighter fluid on the brickets lol Edit 2: No wonder I could never get the fire over 290 degrees lol. When I did it didn't last long.
Awesome video dude! Quarter to 5 in the AM over here, just got an offset smoker, firing it up for the first time and you'r video clearly and helpfully answered my questions. Thanks a bunch and keep up the good work!
Bro. This was the perfect explanation for me as im completely new to all this. The diagrams with your explanation was all I needed to get started to understand what's happening to the meat when not under direct heat like a normal BBQ. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Great video! Helped me figure out what to do with the beast I just inherited from my neighbor. All the other offset smoker videos were 15-30 mins so thanks for you condensed information, that being said, pace yourself no need to rush. Great visuals. Extremely useful information.
I got a smoke hallow over the summer but wasnt confident enough to try out the smoker yet.. This is really helpful information and something I will think about next summer when I smoke for the first time!
Great video. You paced it well... didn't spend an extraordinarily amount of time on any one topic. Informative and direct. I hope you make more videos. Thanks.
Most guys keep the stack vent wide open during the whole cook time. I understand the oxygen principle but wouldn't that cause the lose of excess heat? What are your thoughts?
@@simflier8298 I have experimented and I haven't noticed a difference with heat loss. There could be more charcoal or wood consumption because the top vent is wide open.
Muy buena la explicación y muy bien los gráficos, ahora ya se que tipo de ahumador quiero fabricar. Para el próximo video, sería bueno subtítulos en español. Felicitaciones desde 🇪🇸España
thank you for Showing.. this is good information.. I Built a smoker and I made it to be 2 in one.. offset smoker and revers flow... Of course you cant use both in the same run, ether or use... when this thing fires up at first with wood it goes into the food chamber almost like a rocket... I only used it once.. I need to seal the doors ( it does have gaps).. But I cooked one set of ribs and some chicken drums and they came out great.. All this info is good for making a smoker.. I should do a quick video on it..
Thank you. I’m building my own because my boss gave me the material. No other reason, but a 30 inch piece of pipe... had to be done. So I’m doing it. But I had no idea of what I was getting into. Thanks for clearing up some of the theory.
+Joshua Frye Yeah, you can get really technical with the heat control and the whole physics of it, but I wanted this to be an introductory video for someone who has no background on smoking. Thanks for stopping by!
James Mosely Thank you very much I really appreciate it. I would love to evaluate and judge the different types of smokers out there, but without the first hand experience I would be hesitant to honestly evaluate the smoker.
thanks for making this video - I've recently got very interested in BBQ and was wondering why everyone kept recommending a reverse-flow smoker. Now I know!
Hey brotha great video! Thanks a lot for the information and time you put into helping others! Just starting my smoking today, going to use this knowledge!
It could depend on the type of ingredients you are putting on the meat before your cook. The tart taste could also be from the wood and charcoal you are using. Make sure you are only using salt and pepper for the BBQ rub and also only using chemical free wood and charcoal. Lastly, the tart taste could also be from how clean of a smoke you are doing. Make sure the fire is a clean (no white smoke) burn. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you need anything else. Cheers!

+Christopher Sanchez Yeah you should definitely do a video showing your smoker that would be really cook to see. Thanks for commenting!
Thank you for the info. I've got one and never use the fire box.
When you use it let me know how it goes.

Well done

Awesome presentation, great animations
Thank you very much!
Very informational, thanks for posting.
You're welcome!
Thanks dude. Very useful presentation. Got question. The brisket we smoke tastes tart. What is the problem for that?
It could depend on the type of ingredients you are putting on the meat before your cook. The tart taste could also be from the wood and charcoal you are using. Make sure you are only using salt and pepper for the BBQ rub and also only using chemical free wood and charcoal. Lastly, the tart taste could also be from how clean of a smoke you are doing. Make sure the fire is a clean (no white smoke) burn.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you need anything else.
Cheers!
thank you for this great video. One question how long does it take to cook meat. thank you
Thanks so much! For specific cook times please watch some of my other videos. A steak cooks very different than a brisket.
Thanks man this really helped me understand what I really needed to do
Great, I am glad I could help.
