The Great Outdoors 3605GD Deluxe Propane Smoker Description
The Great Outdoors 3605GD Deluxe Propane Smoker customer reviews:
My Weber's New Best Friend I give it 4.5 stars. This smoker was exactly what I had in mind when I went looking for a companion to my stainless steel gas Weber grill. It is difficult to slow-cook smoked meats in a gas grill. Not I can smoke it slow until tender and then finish it with sauce on the grill. I installed a T-valve so both can share the same LP tank. Seeing the duo together makes it look like I mean BBQ business... I do! The smoker arrived as expected... in time for a 4th of July party with family. Everyone raved about the ribs and commented on my great-smelling cologne (hickory smoke!)
Assembly took about 1.5 hours and was simple enough. All parts are finished well and fit perfectly. Gage of metal seems about perfect (not too heavy but not flimsy). With flat black paint and red accents, it looks like a smoker should look. Only reason not 5 stars... smoker arrived with a small dent (cosmetic only) and two of the rack guided on one side had broken off from defects on the spot welding. Because there are upper and lower guides for each rack level, I was still able to use the smoker. I will call support for a replacement rack guide assembly. Also - and I not sure if this is a problem for me yet - I can't seem to get the temperature lower than 215. There are things I want to smoke at lower temperatures. It was 105 outside this July 4, so maybe that was my problem. The pluses are: nice looking, well-designed (although better packaging might have prevented the dent and the broken rack guides), works like a smoker should and is a great value. The only downside for me MIGHT be the inability to get the temp low enough for low-temp smoking.
Best smoker we ever had. After numerous years of bullet shaped smokers with miserable access to the wood burning area, water pan and lower level of smoked meat it is a thrill to use this smoker. It opens like a refrigerator so you have easy access to EVERYTHING inside. We have used it several times now and we love it. It needs only one boxful of hickory chips to give great smoky flavor to all you can fit inside. We ahve smoked chicken, beef, chicken livers and cream cheese. They were all outstanding. It cooks fast and evenly and everything stays moist, as it should. Clean up is easy too. I wouldn't take $1000 for my smoker if I couldn't get another one. My sister is getting one too because she was so impressed with it. You will love this smoker. Why didn't someone think of this design before? DUH! Better than expected I purchased the smoker as I have wanted one for years. I read the reviews and chose the dreat outdoors. The assembly takes about an hour and an half. I smked ribs chicken and links all at once. The temperature stayed constant the whole time and the meat came out moist and tender. I would reccomend placing aluminum foil on the grease pan as it makes it easier to clean. It was so good my best friend is going to buy one. Still Waiting Disappointed so far. Smoker arrived with a broken door hinge which so far has prevented assembly. Company was slow to recognize and accept problem (infinite regression voice mail system) and then finally sent replacement part via slowest possible shipping mode. New door has yet to arrive. Thus, over a month after purchase we have not yet assembled and used what should be a dynamite product.
Great smoker. I have a few different smokers and this one takes the cake. It works great and is so easy to use. The holes on the smoker box could stand to be smaller but some foil under the lid fixes that problem. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a small smoker, large parties may be a problem due to its size.
