Offset Smoker (stick burner) Recommendations?
Posted on 12/1/21 at 2:29 pm

I'm looking to buy a heavy gauge offset smoker for the back yard. I'd like enough space to at least be able to do a couple of briskets or more, but nothing huge. Am looking to spend $1-2k and am primarily hoping to find something in central TX where there seems to be quite a few manufacturers. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Start your search with the old country smoker. Sturdy and very minimal mods needed to get it going good.

Texas Original has always looked decent to me but I have had no experience with them. For superior quality, but a higher price, check out Lonestar Grillz, Klose, Pitts and spits.

Unless you get an Old Country you budget is too low. Look at Workhorse Pits, Mill Scale, Fatstack Smokers, or Franklin. If you are interested in reverse flow you have Lang or Shirley.

I got a Lone Star Grill a couple years ago and I love it. They just rolled out a pellet grill that is getting great reviews too. I went with the 20x42 offset and have done 2 briskets at a time, but easily have room for more.
The smokers are very well made and the griddle/grill over the firebox is a nice addition. Works great for searing steaks after doing a reverse sear in the main chamber.

I bought a Lang out of Georgia. Absolutely love it. The small ones may be in your range.

Bellue’s on Scenic. Better be have a credit card though. They aren’t cheap.

Look up Allen's Welding on YouTube. I got the 40" reverse flow about a year ago and it has been outstanding. Highly recommend and it is within you price range for the size you are looking for. Can also be used for smoking or direct grilling.

Whichever builder you choose, look out for sloppy welds and vagueness on how thick the steel is. Those would be major red flags.
