Amazon.com Review
For classic Texas-style barbecue in any backyard, Char-Griller offers their Smokin' Pro Charcoal Grill. Using a traditional barrel design, Char-Griller optimizes heat convection and circulation to cook ribs or burgers evenly and efficiently. The grill offers 580 square inches of cooking space in the main grill, ideal for hosting a family barbecue in the backyard. The charcoal side firebox offers an additional 250 square inches of cooking space, bringing the grill's total space to 830 square inches. Barbecue chefs might employ the side firebox to roast a side dish of corn or vegetable shish kabobs for vegetarians in the family.

The barrel of the grill and side firebox are crafted in heavy-gauge steel with powder-coat finish to endure high heats and long-term use. A double bottom also increases the grill's durability. Nonstick grill grates constructed in cast iron resist warping and embellish the heat and flavor distribution to meats as they cook. Grate height also may be altered for different dishes. Slide-out coal drawers enable cooks to add charcoal while cooking without removing grill grates and dump residual ash easily. A rack below the grill supplies convenient space for seasoning spices, paper plates, hot pads, and barbecue accessories. The airtight-flanged grill hood keeps bugs and debris out while containing flames and heat. The hood also features a heat gauge for temperature monitoring. The grill stands four legs with two sturdy feet and two wheels for transport. Char-Griller has several Smokin' Pro accessories available for separate purchase, including a warming shelf, rotisserie kit, and propane igniter. The grill requires assembly upon delivery and includes thorough direction, as well as several barbecue recipes. This item is covered by a one-year warranty for material or craftsmanship defects. The grill measures 62 by 29 by 50 inches and weighs 146 pounds. --Jessica Reuling

4 out of 5 stars No Regrets   October 15, 2008
I was a bit apprehensive when I ordered this. First off, the picture doesn't show the firebox! No problem, there it was, safely cocooned inside the main unit, when I (breathlessly) opened the shipping box. I was also concerned about workmanship and quality of the parts. I am pleased to report that the guts of this machine are just fine. The main units are of a decent gauge, the cast iron grills are great (do season them right away--instructions are included), and even the less-than-rugged looking charcoal holder/raising device has worked very well. Mind you, this is not the fit n' finish of the $1,000-plus grillers, but it is a very legitimate, functional grill. I also got the mnfr's cover, and it fits well and has done its job.

I must confess, it was not the looks that got me to order this--its pretty damn ugly, if you ask me. It actually was all the rave reviews that persuaded me to give it a shot. Being just a bit paranoid, I wondered if they were legit (given my above concerns). I'm pleased to add my very real endorsement. Its a real treat to use.

Love this Barb. Only complaint was the thermometer which I replaced with one of better quality. Would buy again if I ever needed another one.


5 out of 5 stars He likes it!   August 17, 2008

Purchased as a birthday gift for the pit master in my life. He says the assembly was not bad at all. Only took him an hour or so. Has smoked and q'd a variety of meats and all have come out great. Not hard to regulate the heat or smoke w/wood chips, just have to be patient and take your time. He appreciates the versatility of the grill and the cast iron grates made him very happy too! Highly recommended!!


5 out of 5 stars The One and Only way to Real Texas BBQ...   August 14, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Excellent product...The Real Deal...not cheap workmanship or flimsy. If you want to do real Texas BBQ, this is the one 4 U. And, the side fire box is key. Can then be used as a true smoker, or as a giant grill. Awesome. Can't say enough how well this is built. I looked at lots of different brands and this is one of the best smokers out there. The way they cut the barrel is perfect, right in the middle, which allows maximum room for grilling and/or to stand whole chickens up in the center while they cook. PS...the picture here does not show the side fire box, but it did come with it as described. J.
