From the long cooks

“I smoke whole 30 lb piglets, 13–15 lb briskets, or 7 racks of baby backs in one go… I need a reliable product that heats up and creates a good bed of coals to maintain a consistent temperature for long periods. This product does the trick.”

Jayp · Verified purchaser · Costco

“Perfect for yakitori style barbecue… Around 6 pieces was good for eight hungry guests.”
