CC1830SC Charcoal Grill Offset Smoker with Cover, 811 Square Inches, Black, Outdoor Camping

Loved the grill but there is some gaps that have to be filled with gaskets to avoid the smoke of getting out, but otherwise it’s amazing.

Very happy so far, with some exceptions and extra work. I bought this soley to replace a Walmart smoker that I had for almost 20 years (see photo). I am not reviewing this as a grill as I will never use it as such. Smoker only. For that, it works great. I did read the reviews before I purchased and figured I would correct some of the issues others has about it leaking smoke/heat. Assembling it did require some help at a couple points, but was straight forward. Bottom rack is okay and wheels work, but I also parked it on my patio and will never move it again. It didn't come with a grease cup, but an old soup can worked out fine. In fact, better as I can just toss it when full and put another can on, instead of having to clean it out. Grill racks are decent and clean fairly easy. I sealed all the seams with a high temp sealer (see photo) and sealed the lid/base joint with fiber tape (again, see photo). The remaining photos show most of the seams I sealed. This did a great job of keeping the heat and smoke in. I highly suggest doing this. I used canola cooking spray and coated all the surfaces before I built the seasoning fire. I have not had any issues with the black paint failing as a result. Skip this step and be forewarned. As you can see from the size of my old $40 Walmart smoker, its a jump up in size with is great. I've been able to smoke multiple racks of ribs and brisket slabs at the same time. The metal gauge is thicker than my old one, and since I'm almost 60, this should be the last smoker I ever own. The cover was a nice add-on, but no cover lasts long in constant UV and elemental exposure, and I don't expect this one too either. After this falls apart, I'll leave it to the elements like I did my last one. I don't care how it looks, how it performs is what matters. Besides, covered smokers tend to invite creepy crawlies. Would I buy it again? Yes. Is it a great value? Yes. Would I use it as a charcoal grill? No. Would I recommend it as a smoker only? Yes, but I would take the time and buy the extras to seal it up well, and don't forget to season the surfaces.

A lo mejor no es tan rápido de armar pero es sencillo y recomendable que para armarla lo hagan entre dos o tres personas

I do like it, I do enjoy it, it is cheap lol It's certainly thinner than anticipated so more fuel is needed (wood/charcoal) over a duration of extended time. Not really an issue in my personal opinion. Grilling multiple plus years natural fuels. Does help it cool down quicker too though, so maybe a safety aspect there? Maybe? Works well, as expected. Easy to assemble. Easy to control temp/smoke Fun as hell Do recommend Lots of grill space, easy to move grill grates, easy to start, maintain embers. All around seems legit. All grilling, bbq, temp gauging aspects seem to work after multiple intense grill sessions. Upper grill works great for warmer, stones, pans, etc So yea, if you're looking at it... You want it.. Just get it lol If ya chill; this should be worth it for sure. (Be sure to burn a few hot sessions before food as factory surfaces have things that really should be cleaned or burned off prior to cooking food. And to prevent any potential fowl flavors. Your welcome) Cheers Fam

Nice looking pit for the price. Now my coals stay lit and I'm able to cook my meat better. The metal is a bit thin, but maybe the cover that came with it will protect it in bad weather. Only time will tell if it will hold up but for now It was a good deal. Update: The wheels started coming off. The top rack will not hold lots of meat so it bends and comes off. The cover faded white because of the sun. The bottom plate that holds the charcoal is starting to deteriorate after a few uses. The overall metal is so thin and flimsy that strong wind will eventually move it. This pit will not last a long time and I haven't even had it a whole 2 months! Amazon only gives you a 30 day return window and will not help you with any warranty refund or replacement after that. They will say contact the manufacturer but for what?? Another pit! Lol....Save your money and buy a better pit from lowes or home depot for around the same price. Dont be like me and stay stuck with a cheap pit. Its really embarrassing having a bbq get together with a new pit that's falling apart during cook outs. Oh, and I've been bbq'n for years and this is not worth it!!! What a waste!!! 2nd Update: I managed to rig the pit to stay in use. However the cover is long gone and is hard to replace and find the right size. The cover that comes with it tore.and ripped into pieces because it became brittle and it catches on the pits sharp edges..... I dont not recommend. Spend the extra $40 on something made with better quality.
