    This smoker is so good I gave it away and ordered another!!!

    I was in a bbq grill competition on 11/9/2019 and my smoker caught the eye of one of the contestants. He kept asking me about my smoker and how he like to have one and I told him that he can have mine after I'm done with it. He was so happy that i gave it to him. I told him I would buy another one. My smother was the bomb and cooked my ribs and Boston Buttts really well. Kudos to BBQ Guys.

    Well Designed, Built

    The smoker was easy to put together and made of quality material. I like the fact that it comes with two grills so you can smoke enough meat to serve several people, and the fact that it has provisions to add more charcoal and water if needed.

    When will my item arrive?

    Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

    • Most freight products ship on a pallet
    • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
    • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

    For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

    Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

    For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

    Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

    This item leaves our warehouse within 24 Hours

    $6.95 Flat-Rate Shipping

    Anything under $49 ships at one low price. If your order increases, your shipping stays the same!

    30-Day Returns

    Return all new, unused, and unassembled items in their original packaging, and we'll give you a full refund minus the cost of the original AND return shipping.

    No Restocking Fee

    Most companies charge a restocking fee. We just don't do business that way.
