Red Box Smoker
« Reply #-1 on: February 01, 2020, 01:08:29 PM »
I couldn't find any recent reviews of the Red Box Smoker so figured I would ask.  I have a Weber kettle and a Traeger Pro 22 and was thinking of buying a Red Box Smoker.  Right now it is on sale for $275 which seems like a good deal.

This is strictly for my backyard (family and friends) as I do not do competitions.

If I do get the Red Box Smoker is it worth it to modify it by adding the BBQ Guru Party-Q?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

The one's I found on  YouTube were mostly by the manufacturer.  I was hoping for some reviews from people who have no relation to the company making it.

Yes, I do.  I am ashamed to say I have not used it as much as I had originally intended.  I like it for smoking smaller pieces of protein.  It takes a while to get the temperature at the right level.  Actually, that is true on a lot of smokers.  I tried to smoke some cheese and had a miserable experience.  Too hot.  The cheese all melted.  What a mess to clean up.  I may try this again if the weather around here gets real cold.  That will make it easier to control the "heat".  I'll also use one of my smoking tubes with pellets this time.

On the other hand I have smoked some pork tenderloins and elk tenderloins.  Came out perfect.

Where do you live?

I live right outside Philadelphia.  I would mainly use the Red Box Smoker for pork butts, pork belly burnt ends, and ribs.  I might try things like a rib roast or something like that.  I smoke just for family so one butt or 2-3 racks of ribs.
