How’d that set up from academy work? I’ve been debating buying the same one. The water come to a boil fairly quick?


Took about 30 minutes to come to a boil. I dont have anything else to compare it to but I thought it worked great. Works better than my old turkey frier setup which took forever to boil 30qts. After we dumped the crawfish in there it took about 5-6 minutes to get back up to a boil (not rolling but just a boil). We cut it off after about a minute of boiling.

I want to say around 300-400? But most are kids (scouting event) and when we did it last year with 12 butts we had a ton left over. Just went with 10 this year.

Yes. Their 40" propane. The wood pan and water pan designs sucked. I wrap the water pan in foil and use it as a wood tray. I bought a cheap giant pan to use as a water pan. I lost a shelf but otherwise all the drilling fat tended to catch on fire in the original configuration.

I’ve got the 40” electric and gave up on the element a long time ago. Get an AmazeN pellet tube and be done with it.

That propane model looks a little different than the electric. That’s why I was curious. Butts look good though, baw. Great job, all around.

Man, those butts look great. You may be a rookie at cooking crawfish, but you certainly look like you know your way around a smoker.

Nice Job.
